One World Music - Review 2023

Review for Moonlight - Orchestrated Version (Single), One World Music Radio (UK)

"Claude Caron has really pushed onwards this year and has built on the many successes of the preceding one, now with this brand new single entitled Moonlight (Orchestrated), we may well have seen the best work of the artist so far.

This fine arrangement is very well suited to the subject matter, and the orchestration that flows naturally from it, is manifested by the skill set of the extremely talented Steve Alcoran.

The energies of this new offering are that good that each and every hair will stand to attention on your arms whilst listening to it, this is music that could so easily find its way into a film segment, and if any producers or directors are reading this, then you really need to take a moment to listen to this breath taking new release from Claude.

The performance of Caron on this new single is masterful, full on, and extremely passionate, but added to that is such a layer of technique too, a piece cleverly creative and very impressive in its posture, in its proud tones, and with its sublime crescendos.

Moonlight (Orchestrated) by Claude Caron has to be the best work so far produced by the artist, and as such, should storm up the singles chart, launching the composer into a whole new level of musical stardom."

Show Premières Mémoires

The show "Premières Mémoires", took place during the whole Summer season 2022 in the Church of Causapscal (Gaspésie). This tourist attraction was a great success in the region and in the Procince of Quebec. Many of my original compositions were included, some of them specially orchestrated for the event.

A few representative testimonies:

Bravo aux artisans de chez nous! Spectacle magnifique, jeux de lumières et musique excellents.

Les effets sont incroyables, la musique grandiose et le spectacle sublime!

Très belle musique, belle œuvre artistique.

Moment très agréable. De la poésie en musique.

Spectacle enchanteur et que dire de la musique!

Review for Glory Nostalgia (Single), One World Music Radio (UK)

"A proud and regal composition can be found on this brand new single entitled Glory Nostalgia by Claude Caron, the energy of this grand opus of magic flows from the keys of the artist with great polish. The song itself is a fine lesson in compositional build and progression, and contains a fluent and colourful theatrical passionate repose.

The gentle drift back and then push forward within this new single was deeply enthralling and extremely enthusiastic in its textures, it was also very nice to be taken on a piano journey of some six minutes plus, compared to the fleeting and somewhat lacking two minutes or less that I am used to hearing. There can be no doubt that Claude Caron has style, panache and a sensitive skillset that has created this totally splendid new single in Glory Nostalgia, and as listeners, we should be grateful for the colourful and enchanting sojourn it has provided".

Very evocative! I especially like how the chords never really resolve where you would expect them to. It really does give you a sense of the description you provide to the piece, like a scene where you are going around corners and seeing something new at every turn. Excellent!

Beautifully written words, that reflected your music very well. Clear and snappy theme, that echoed easily in my mind right away.

I love the bass notes, I guess you are using octave bass keys to emphasize the sound, which creates the drama of the piece. We always think of a clown as being a happy character, but in reality, who knows what their personal story is. People who make others laugh often have depression behind the scenes and this piece of music depicts it perfectly. Bravo Claude Caron. Superb masterpiece.
