I just stumbled upon this new release from Toccata Classics, available from January 7, devoted to living French composer Corentin Boissier's chamber music.
It features new recordings of his Cello Sonata and Flute Sonata, as well as the world premiere recording of his Piano Trio (which seems to be a little more dramatic in style, but still within this forum's remit, I think).
The extracts sound quite enticing in my view, both in terms of music, performances and sound quality.

We have already discussed the music of French living composer Corentin Boissier. I see he recently shared his Sonata for Flute and Piano performed by Gladys Avignon and himself. I find it a delightful, spirited work. Would like to know your opinions about it...

Though composed in the XXIst century, the piano works of French composer Corentin Boissier are written in an unashamedly "romantic" style.
For example, his first piano sonata (adequately titled "Sonata Romantica"  ) and his set of three piano pieces "Romantic Young Ladies" are in a mid-XIXth century idiom, with echoes of Chopin and Schumann at times, while his second piano sonata (subtitled "Sonata Appassionata"), as well as his "Glamour Concerto" and his concert piece "Pandora's Box", are written in a flamboyant late-romantic style "à la Rachmaninoff".
