Fénelon: Still Dreams

Różni wykonawcy

SIG 11128-29

The music of Philippe Fénelon (born 1952) is in constant dialogue with the history of the arts and literature. Revisiting genres inherited from the past (madrigal, concerto, string quartet), his catalogue contains over a hundred works, both instrumental and vocal.

The seven pieces on CD 1 (composed between 1980 and 1994) all make reference to travel –multiple walks through literature, the visual arts or cities, which renew the musical proposals: mythology (Les Combats nocturnes), astronomy (Halley), music (Stockhausen in Epilogue, Bach in the Two Epigrams), ethnography (Zabak), a fresco by Tiepolo (Omaggio) and poetry (Notti) ...

These various sources of inspiration were to nourish the works to come. The two pieces on CD 2 (Still Dream, composed between 2012 and 2022, and Paléomusique in 2014) are part of this same wandering path through the arts and, more broadly, through a world that has never ceased to show its diversity and wide-ranging mix of aesthetics and genres.
