Par NAOUMOFF EMILE. These songs by Emile Naoumoff are squarely in the tradition of French lied composition such as by Gabriel Fauré. Here, Naoumoff chose texts by late 19th-century French lyricists: Auguste Villiers de l'Isle-Adam, Emile Verhaeren, Charles Baudelaire and René-François Sully-Prudhomme. In their elegance and suppleness, the four songs sound typically French. As they are all easy to …

The Richard Wagner Complete Edition presents the composer's entire output for the first time in a reliable form. The conductor Michael Balling, in the early years of the 20th century, attempted to make Wagner's work more accessible for research and performance, but the edition only reached 10 volumes - some with grave shortcomings - and was discontinued after Balling's death in 1925. A further att…

Par RHEINBERGER JOSEF GABRIEL. Rheinberger's concert overtures are completely beholden to the tradition of the genre established at least since the 1820s. The spread of this genre was favored in equal measure by the growth of bourgeois musical culture and the overwhelming model of Beethoven's nine symphonies, which sowed a certain perplexity and discouragement among composers of the next generatio…

Par WEIR JUDITH. This suite for chorus and string orchestra was commissioned by the Addison Singers, London, and dedicated to their conductor David Wordsworth.

Par PANUFNIK ROXANNA. When the London International Festival of Early Music came to me with a commission to write a solo harpsichord piece for Jane Chapman, they asked me to relate the new piece to Byrd, as it’s the 400th anniversary of his death, this year. Jane introduced me to Byrd’s arrangement of Dowland’s wonderful Pavana Lachrymae (‘Pavan of tears’) – a piece of many layers but simple and e…

Par MINGUS CHARLES. The style heading is simply fast which doesn't begin to hint at the energy packed into this Mingus powerhouse. The intensity is built up in layers starting with the bass, followed by the baritone sax, then tenors and finally the entire ensemble. And from there, the chart just never lets up! Recorded live by the Mingus Big Band. / Date parution : 2024-01-06/ Répertoire / Jazz En…
