Product-Information:
The gentle urbane art of Jean Francaix, at once freshly engaging and invariably distinguished by an unerring sense of style, has endeared itself to successive generations of musicians and music-lovers. His death in 1997 at the age of 85 removed from contemporary music one of its most immediately appealing and distinctly Gallic masters.
This alluring orchestral music undulates between the dreamy and the dramatic, exemplifying Francaix's attractive use of sound colour and harmonies. The Scuola di Ballo, a ballet in one act, is based on music by Boccherini, largely from his quintets. The Pavane pour un Génie vivant was written to mark the fiftieth anniversary of Ravel's death, and the Symphonie was written in Haydn's memory. The Sérénade has neoclassical overtones, and the Ouverture anacréontique attempts to portray an imaginary world, without wars, in which all is well. The content therefore is largely retrospective, but remains charismatically original throughout.
Compelling listening, enthusiastically and empathetically played by the Ulster Orchestra, under Thierry Fischer.
Rezensionen
'An hour of pure joy' (BBC Music Magazine)
'Again and again while listening to Thierry Fischer's ebullient performances I smile and wish that I had met Jean Françaix' (Gramophone)
'The Ulster Orchestra sound captivated by this music, as well they might … pure pleasure from beginning to end' (International Record Review)
'This collection serves to remind us what 20th-century joys can be found away from the fashionable modernists. The Ulster players may not actually be French, but they fooled me. An utter delight' (The Times)
Rezensionen
G. Schubert in FonoForum 11/02: "Diese Musik bezwingt durch ihren natürlichen Erfindungsreichtum, der mit mühe- loser Virtuosität ausgebreitet wird. Thierry Fischer lässt die vertrackten Rhythmen federn, die Klangfarben stellen sich zu immer neuen Konfigurationen zusammen, der Formablauf gliedert ein überbordendes Musizieren. Die Aufnahmen stellen dem Ulster Orchestra ein glänzendes Zeugnis aus."- Tracklisting
