Pour Piano. Par HAHN REYNALDO. The unacquainted listener, upon hearing a piece from the Hahn piano repertoire, is often surprised by its powerful charm - a testament to the composer' s unique musical sensibility. Although some of Hahn' s musical ideas have roots in the long tradition of Romanticism, they also present a host of new images, scarcely seen in earlier scores Each piece in this collection is based on a single formula that varies little from start to finish. An exception to this unique principle occurs in the IInd piece, where the young woman takes fright at the ' flaming red eye of the setting sun watching her through the branches”. As a conclusion, Reynaldo Hahn offers a ' very free” cadence that takes up and comments on the initial theme: the crackling notes culminate in a fortissimo blaze, rapidly followed by a progressive lull that slowly fades away./ Répertoire / Piano

Reynaldo HAHN (Caracas, Venezuela 1875 - Paris 1947) n'a que trois ans lorsque ses parents s'installent en France. Enfant prodige, il fait ses débuts à l'âge de six ans dans le célèbre salon de la princesse Mathilde, cousine de l'empereur Napoléon III ; il y chante des ai d'Offenbach en s'accompagnant au piano. Au Conservatoire où il entre à dix ans, il est l'élève de Decombes, Lavignac, Dubois et surtout Massenet qui sera pour lui un ami et un protecteur. Son ?uvre est principalement tournée vers la musique vocale : mélodies, opérettes, opéras. On lui doit aussi de nombreuses musiques de scène, des concertos, pièces instrumentales et de musique de chambre. / Classique / Partition /
