Overview
This core release from Naxos presents the brilliant, highly colorful chamber dialogue of twentieth-century French master Francis Poulenc. Recorded at Temple du Bon Secours in Paris between October 1995 and October 1997, the album features his milestone instrumental duos under the expert artistic co-ordination of pianist Alexandre Tharaud. From the early, witty spark of the Sonata for Violin and Piano and the Bagatelle in D minor to the expressive lyrical depth of the Sonata for Clarinet in B flat and his expansive late Sonata for Piano and Cello, this volume exemplifies Poulenc’s legendary compositional spectrum spanning from joyous vivacity to bittersweet melancholy.
