Nature

Following her acclaimed debut “Diaries,” pianist Tiffany Poon returns with “Nature,” an album that explores the evocative power of French music and captures the beauty of the natural world—from the delicate shimmer of water to the quiet mysteries of the forest and the animals that live there. “Nature,” recorded by Poon with producer Damien Quintard at the legendary Provence-based Miraval Studios (home to Pink Floyd, Sade, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds), brings together works by French composers from several centuries, united by an instinctive appreciation of the world around them. Guided by intuition and a deep personal connection, Poon’s curated selection—which includes works by Maurice Ravel, Claude Debussy, Jean-Philippe Rameau and Louis-Claude Daquin—moves beyond the structured rigor of the German-speaking musical tradition and into the flowing, sensual soundscapes of the French repertoire. Inspired by Rameau’s belief that music is rooted in nature itself, she curates a program that reflects her love of animals, forests and water, translating it into vivid musical forms. “Nature” is a testament to music’s ability to reflect the natural world and invites listeners to appreciate its beauty with instinct and devotion.
