Dear subscribers,
French music is once again at the heart of this letter... But it's a pure coincidence.
What could be more radically opposed, in fact, than the Paris of
Francis Poulenc
, madly revisited by
Patricia Kopatchinskaja
and her playing partners (who with
Take 3
transport us from the Parisian café-concert to the klezmer world);
that the delicate and luminous poetic introspection of
Sandrine Piau
in
Reflet
, which from
Ravel
to
Koechlin
, from
Baudelaire
to
Mallarmé
, plunges us into the twists and turns of French melody, with a mixture of gluttony and curiosity with communicative enjoyment;
or that the first two French operas ever composed by a woman, to have been performed at the
Paris Opera
?
Three worlds at odds.
Three favorites to open this month of March, and which, I hope, will touch you as much as me.
So good travels, good reading, good week, good rediscoveries, and above all, good listening!
