Par SCHOENBERG ARNOLD. Here the fourths, springing from an entirely different expressive urge, shape themselves into a defi nite horn theme, spread themselves out architectonically over the whole piece, and place their stamp on everything that happens. Thus it turns out that they do not appear here merely as melody or as a purely impressionistic chord effect; their character permeates the total harmonic structure, and they are chords like all others.' (Arnold Schoenberg, Theory of Harmony, 1911) The Chamber Symphony Op.9 heralded a breakthrough in Schoenberg's compositional style. While the work did not go hand in hand with the complete destruction of the old tonal system it does show an extension in chordal and melodic constructions. It's focus on the interval of the fourth rather than the third is stated right at the start with the horn fanfare and this leads into the use of the whole tone scale soon after. These two elements open up a new sound space which he would explore further in the works to follow. Certainly not a work to be missing from any library where contemporary music is one of the main focuses./ Répertoire / Ensemble de Musique de Chambre

Composed by the Czech composer Bohuslav Martinü in 1927, La Revue De Cuisine is a ballet initially created for a sextet. This score was reviewed and tailored for an Orchestra.

2. Introduction (Tempo de marche)
3. Danse du moulinet autour du caudron (Poco meno)
4. Danse du chaudron et du couvercle (Allegro)
5. Tango (Danse d'amour. Lento)

8. Marche funèbre (Adagio)
9. Danse radieuse (Tempo di marche)

Par ELIA ALESSIO. Commissioned by I Solisti della Scala for the CD ''Octet'', a project conceived by the conductor Andrea Vitello, which includes also the first recording in the performance of I Solisti della Scala of the Octet by Stravinsky and the first world recording of the Octet by Peter Eötvös, the Octet by Alessio Elia is described by the Italian musicologist Guido Barbieri in these terms: ''In the Octet written in 2016 by Alessio Elia, the musical elements, or their strongly contrasted combination, significantly shape the structure of the piece. The utilization of different scales - a technique defined by the composer as ''polysystemism'' - further emphasizes his concept of sound as a phenomenal entity.'' / Date parution : 2022-07-23/ Répertoire / Ensemble de Chambre
