Emmanuel: The 6 Sonatines

Wagschal, Laurent

1C 1194

The 6 Sonatines by Maurice Emmanuel constitute a monument that very few interpreters visit. What a gap! Each of these works is in itself a world, dominated by the composer's properly "playful" spirit, a spirit in total contradiction with the face of the learned musicologist who is content to paint. Emmanuel likes to play with fashions (ancient or ... Hindu) to weave a harmonic canvas which is always renewed and which announces subsequent conquests. • After the complete melodies, chamber music and symphonic music, here is the piano legacy of Maurice Emmanuel. And to serve him, this pianist, essential in French music, Laurent Wagschal, acclaimed when the Pierné album was released two years ago. He renewed the feat, airing the texture of the speech, imposing the "grand" piano. • The CD is completed by a bonus DVD, evoking Emmanuel through interviews (Dutilleux ...) and musical extracts, in particular with Laurent Wagschal.
