"Le Sage’s ample arsenal of touch and release strategies and his infinitely calibrated dynamic spectrum reveal nuances of textural richness inherent in this intimate repertory. Replete though the nocturnes may be with sentiment, Le Sage’s sensibility never counts sentimentality…These are loving interpretations by an artist who has made Fauré’s intimate and complex language his own."
