She'd just sent the writer her Six mélodies for mezzo-soprano and piano composed on poems from his masterwork Plupart du temps. The songs were …

The autograph of a composition always makes fascinating reading - and this is particularly true of Schubert's Trio in Eb major op. 100, as it underwent many changes during its composition. The manuscript, parts of which were greatly revised, bears eloquent witness to this and offers an opportunity to trace the intricacies of Schubert's phrasing and articulation. This source is in a private collect…

Les treize Nocturnes représentent le groupe le plus important de pièces de caractère pour piano dans l'oeuvre de Fauré. Si le terme 'nocturne' renvoie traditionnellement à John Field et Frédéric Chopin, le compositeur français transforme le genre à sa manière: pas de scènes nocturnes rêveuses mais des compositions scintillantes, minutieusement élaborées, oscillant entre lyrisme élégant et dramatis…
