ROBERT LAFOND

Quebecer Robert Lafond has become a master in the art of orchestration and interpretation of all styles of music. In addition to create his own orchestral music albums, like the New Age oriented Extasias, the symphonic Messagias and the traditional India, he has innovated by producing recordings highlighting bird song, as in The Birds Sing the Classics, or toy instruments, as in Classics on Toys. In 2003, with Beltane and Tales from the Book of Time, Robert Lafond has moved on to new challenges, by adapting the compositions of Marc Bolan (of the British cult group T-Rex) for singer Catherine Lambert. As producer and expert sound engineer, he has been in the recent years closely associated with the outstanding development of the label Disques XXI-21.
