French
pianist and composer,
Serge Lancen (1922-2005)
studied at the Paris
Conservatoire where he
won first prize for
composition in 1949. His
professional career saw
him winning many prizes
for his compositions and
For Raphaele remains
popular in the Harp
repertoire. As
exemplified in For
Raphaele, Lancen's
compositional style
remained attached to the
French characteristics,
featuring luscious
melodies, balance and
clarity of tone. With a
typical performance
lasting about 2 and a
half minutes, Pour
Raphaele demonstrates the
versatility of the Harp,
addressing flourishes,
dotted rhythms,
syncopation and
variations in dynamics.
For all intermediate
harpists, Lancen's For
Raphaele is a delightful
addition to the
instrument's repertoire.

Pastoreles De
Noël b
y André
Jolivet is a piece
for Flute, Bassoon and
the Harp lasting nearly
13 minutes. This piece is
really gentle and
restrained which
demonstrates the quality
ofJolivet’
s work but also reflects
that period of WWII when
France was under
occupation. These scores
are of medium level of
ability.
Pastore
les De
Noël f
eatures four
sections:L’é
toile (the Star), Les
Mages (the Wisemen), La
Vierge et l’Enfant
(the Virgin and the
Child) and Entrée
et Danse des Bergers (the
Shepherds’ dance).
Each of these parts
describes a part
oftheChristmas story,
starting with the Flute
and the Bassoon in a
duet, followed by the
entrance of the Harp to
settle the first part.
The second section is
quieter, expressing the
walk in the desert. The
Virgin and the Child
islike a lullaby and the
piece finishes on a
joyful dance to express
happiness and devotion.
André
Jolivet is a French
composer who was really
inspired by the
Antiquity, and had a
strong interest
foratonality. He also
wrote many chamber music
pieces, eleven concertos,
some orchestral and some
vocal music.
