(Lonely Angel). Par VASKS PETERIS. For my Meditation for violin and string orchestra Lonely Angel, I was guided by the following vision: An angel hovers over the world, contemplating the state of the battered Earth with tears in his eyes. But an almost imperceptible, loving touch with his wings brings comfort and healing. This piece is a response to the pain. The solo part of the violin lends a sonorous voice to the lonely angel who tirelessly watches over the Earth. The version for piano trio was composed at the suggestion of the Trio Palladio.

Klaviertrio-As with all of his mature chamber music works Ravel also emerges as an innovator of traditional forms and techniques in his piano trio composed in 1914. Thus the ?Passacaglia? movement corresponds to the underlying form of theBaroque Period. The music on the other hand was according to Ravel ?like that of Saint-Saëns? which was surely meant ironically. For the historicizing template only served as a framework for experiments with musical idiom: froma constant oscillation between major and minor to combinations and overlaying of the most diverse metres. The fingering for our edition of this technically extremely demanding work was provided by the renowned French pianistPascal Rogé.

Par PESSON GERARD. Ce trio est constitué de plusieurs moments musicaux inspirés des carnets d'esquisses de Marcel Proust. Proust est, entre Anne-Lise Gastaldi (pianiste et fondatrice du trio George Sand) et moi, comme un lien réflexe. Cette partition, qui lui est dédiée, est un hommage à la musique de Vinteuil (le compositeur en partie fictif de La Recherche du temps perdu), mais aussi une méditation sur les arcanes de l'invention proustienne. La phrase utilisée comme titre de ce trio est une sorte de mémento griffonné par Proust sur le folio 45 (verso) du Carnet 4 (1914-17) - phrase qui est liée au détail d'un tableau de Bruegel ainsi qu'au rougeoyant Septuor, la dernière oeuvre de Vinteuil.
