Various Artists - Rappel Des Oiseaux    - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

A highly sought-after musician not only for his virtuosity and the subtlety of his playing, Luc Beauséjour is never short of ideas when it comes to offering music programs imbued with authenticity and refinement. For his new album, Le rappel des oiseaux, the harpsichordist proposes a selection of works by French composers inspired by birdsongs. The extreme diversity of timbre, tune, and rhythm found in birdsong has always fascinated musicians. Even when the creatures in question are out of sight, their twittering, warbling, and chirping fill the air with sweet and pleasant music, both under the morning sun and at nightfall. Album Tracks 1. Le Rappel Des Oiseaux 2. Les Tourterelles 3. Le Coucou 4. Le Rossignol-En-Amour 5. La Linote - Éfarouchée 6. Les Fauvétes Plaintives 7. Le Rossignol-Vainqueur 8. Les Tourterelles 9. L'hirondelle 10. Les Colombes 11. La Fauvette 12. Les Coucous Bénévoles 13. Le Chant de L'allouette 14. Le Petit Ramage 15. Le Concert Des Oiseaux 16. Le Gazouillement 17. Les Tendres Tourterelles 18. La Poule

Various Artists - Bird of Life - Late Romant    - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

During the last decade of the 19th century a generation of central European composers emerged that was to exert a powerful influence on the current of contemporary music. Yet, for the most part, their works for flute remain little known and a number of pieces included in this album are world premieres. Kornauth, Weigl, Mittler and Petyrek were tied to Vienna's cultural milieu, while others such as Harsányi, Mihalovici and Martinu gravitated to Paris. Prague-born Karel Jirák's Sonata for Flute and Piano, Op. 32 a is without doubt an important addition to the recorded catalogue of flute music. Album Tracks 1. Burleske, Op. 11 (1914) (Version for Flute and Piano) 2. Oiseau de la Vie (1979) 3. Sérénade-Caprice (1930S) (Version for Flute and Piano, 1961) 4. Drei Tänze FÜR Flöten (1924) 5. Trois Pièces Pour Piano Et Flûte (1924) 6. Sonata, Op. 43 for Solo Flute (1938) 7. Mélodie for Flute and Piano (1958) 8. Scherzo, H. 174A for Flute and Piano (1929) 9. Sonata for Flute and Piano, Op. 32 (1930)
