The 20th century was truly a golden age in French music with a wealth of gloriously sumptuous and seductively perfumed harmony to be discovered. This concert reflects both the spiritual world of Poulenc, Durufl茅 and Messiaen, and the inspiration of French poetry on composers such as Fran莽aix, Ravel and Debussy. From the rich, film-score sensuality of Poulenc鈥檚 Un soir de neige to the cheeky, experimental, helterskelter sound-world of Jolivet鈥檚 脡辫颈迟丑补濒补尘别, this is a perfect showcase for the virtuosity of the 91热爆 Singers under their Chief Conductor David Hill.
