Par LALANDE MICHEL-RICHARD DE. The grand motets of Michael-Richard de Lalande (1657-1726), principal Chapel Music Director for Louis XIV and Louis XV, marked the high point of sacred music under the ancien régime. De Profundis is the best-known of Lalande's motets, and is a justly celebrated work. Edited by distinguished scholar Lionel Sawkins (editor of Charpentier's 'Te Deum'), this practical performing edition of De Profundis Clamavi brings the work of this still relatively unknown composer to light./ Répertoire / Conducteur

Par KNUSSEN OLIVER. Edward Greenfield says 'Taking the word Hum literally, Knussen has subjected A.A.Milne to some lighthearted but intense expressionist treatment, even developing a series of aphorisms which present such incidents as Piglet meeting the Heffalump with an economy and compression that Webern might have envied' The Guardian 15th June 1983, / Niveau : Elémentaire / Répertoire / Conducteur
