Par BOCCHERINI LUIGI. Luigi Boccherini was born in Lucca in Italy, where he became famous at an early age as a virtuoso Cellist. After an invitation to Madrid in 1768, he spent the rest of his life in Spain.

Par BARTOK BELA. Béla Bartók?s six string quartets, composed between 1908 and 1940, are 20th-century milestones of the genre. His First String Quartet is closely linked to his unhappy love for the violinist Stefi Geyer, to whom he sent the initial measures of its first movement in early 1908 with the remark: ?My song of death?. When he completed all three movements of the work a year later, he had…

Dutilleux never missed an oppor­tunity to mention the high esteem in which he held the younger musician's work. Dedicated to the memory of Henri Dutilleux, Songe À La Douceur takes its title from the 2nd verse of 'L'Invitation au Voyage', from the 'Fleurs du mal' by Baudelaire…
