Par COUPERIN FRANCOIS. What is hidden behind the seductively hypnotic repeating theme of Couperin?s Les Baricades Mistérieuses' The original allusion of the title is long forgotten, though tantalizing theories abound, but the piece has lost none of its evocative beauty.

Par KIDANE DANIEL. Set across four movements, 'Quatre Tableaux’ (French for ‘Four Pictures') presents four vignettes that progressively build in intensity. The work begins with a luminous calmness that gradually escalates through virtuosity and fervent playing. The work primarily explores and relishes the homogeneous sound of the string quartet as one body, juxtaposing calmness and energy as a way…

This French composer and pianist was one of Les Six , a group of French composers who subscribed to the aesthetic ideals of Erik Satie. The spontaneity and lyricism of Poulenc's style are best adapted to small forms such as this terrific sonata for Piano Duet. / Piano 4 Mains

Conducteur Ba 10927 et Ba 10928. Par SAINT-SAENS CAMILLE. Ludwig van Beethoven's overpowering legacy caused many subsequent composers to avoid writing string quartets at all. Saint-Saëns was no exception in this respect and waited until 1899 and 1918 to produce his two contributions to the genre. Couched in classicism, they relate in form and style to early 19th-century French quartets and to a ti…

In 1920, a Parisian magazine asked several leading composers to compose musical tributes to the famous French musician Claude Debussy, who had died in 1918. The great Spanish composer Manuel De Falla (1876-1946) was one of them: having met Debussy in Paris, he had been heavily influenced by the French impressionists. His Homenaje (Homage) was his only work for solo Guitar, although it was arranged…

Par PIERNE. Gabriel Pierne (1863-1937) was a French composer, conductor and organist. Despite being predominantly remembered as a conductor, his Solo De Concert remains a recognised piece in the Bassoon repertoire. Pierne studied at the Paris Conservatoire before taking up the position of chief conductor for the concert series, Concerts Colonne in 1910. He remained in the post until 1933, and duri…
