from the Symphonic Poem \'Psyché\'. Par FRANCK CESAR. César Franck est un compositeur, pianiste, organiste et professeur de musique. Amour et Psychéest le sixième et dernier poème symphonique du compositeur et fut achevé en 1887. La première eut lieu à Paris en 1888 et fut un grand succès, mais la pièce tomba plus tard complètement dans l\'oubli et ce ne fut que grâce à un minutieux travail de recherche si elle a été reprogrammée dans les salles de concert. L?amour complexe entre Psyché et Cupidon est une histoire originale tirée des Métamorphoses, écrite au IIe siècle après J.C. par Apulée. Le récit raconte les obstacles à surmonter dans l\'amour et leur union finale. Le poème symphonique est divisé en trois parties et implique la présence d\'un ch?ur. Le mouvement qui fait l\'objet de cet arrangement, Psyché et Érosse trouve à la fin de la deuxième partie. La version pour orchestre à vent de Franco Cesarini est particulièrement soignée dans les nuances des couleurs instrumentales et représente un véritable test visant à démontrer la musicalité et les capacités d\'interprétation des orchestres et leurs chefs. / Date parution : 2022-07-23/ Répertoire / Orchestre de Vents

Leos Janacek almost seventy years old characterised the wind sextet he had just finished as 'a kind of memory of youth' in a letter to Kamila Stösslová. The suite Youth was written in the summer of 1924 prompted by the composer's need to take stock on the occasion of his 70th birthday. Janacek also heard the Parisian ensemble Societe moderne des instruments a vent several times in Salzburg and Brno. He expanded the classic quintet scoring by the addition of a bass clarinet.Janacek referred to an earlier part of his life in this work not only by quoting a theme from March of the Blue Boys but particularly through his general freshness ofexpression astute humour and use of form which adhered to the classical style.The piece was enthusiastically received by both critics and the public and appeared in print as early as 1925 issued by the Prague publisher Hudebni matice.Wind sextet in the classical styleUrtext based on the Critical Complete Edition of the Works of Leos JanacekNew foreword by Jiri Zahradka (Cz/Eng/Ger)
