Lorsque, en avril 1981, je jouai quelques-uns des 24 Caprices de N. Paganini au saxophone sopranino à Radio-France, j'imaginai réaliser une expérience trop personnelle pour mériter une large diffusion - l'exécution au saxophone de ces caprices me paraissait à l'extrême limite du possible.

Grande fut ma surprise lorsque, en 1989, Didier Vadrot, alors étudiant en première année au Conservatoire de Paris, joua semaine après semaine chacun de ces redoutables Caprices dans une version parfaitement conforme à l'original. Très impressionnés, les autres étudiants de la classe de saxophone mettaient leurs pas sur ce chemin ardu au cours des mois suivants. L'immense bénéfice que chacun a retiré de ce travail, sur le plan technique - grands intervalles, détachés, perfectionnement du suraigu - et musical - longs phrasés, souplesse de l'expression associée à une grande vélocité - m'a convaincu qu'il était temps de présenter ce travail à un plus large public.

Nous ne possédions pas à ce jour d'études transcendantes du niveau de celles proposées aux pianistes, violonistes, flûtistes. Après avoir travaillé les études de Mule, Loyon, Lacour, Bozza, Samyn et s'être déjà largement familiarisé avec le registre suraigu, tout saxophoniste peut se mesurer avec ce monument que Niccolo Paganini ne dédie pas aux violonistes, mais aux artistes !

Par HINDEMITH PAUL. The opera is set in a variety of locations between the years 1608 and 1630 and throws a spotlight on individual scenes, sometimes presented simultaneously, from the life of the astronomer Johannes Kepler (1571-1630); the opera takes its name from Kepler’s theoretical work ‘Harmonices mundi’. Hindemith utilises substantial historical studies as the basis for his sketches of individuals within Kepler’s circle who each accompany the astronomer’s scientific endeavours with a variety of personal ambitions. The military commander Wallenstein attempts to utilise Kepler’s astrological abilities to realise his own pretensions to power while Kepler’s assistant Ulrich aspires to scientific fame and recognition. Kepler’s mother urges her son to apply his scientific abilities to the services of her black magic and the Lutheran minister Hizler forbids the astronomer to receive communion because Kepler questions the doctrine of Holy Communion in the Lutheran church and expresses sympathy for Calvinist doctrine. The few figures shed in a positive light include Kepler’s wife Susanna who supports her husband’s pursuit of truth and knowledge and the child Susanna who listens to the voices of nature and the moon in her childish naivety, thereby gaining revelatory knowledge. At the end of his life, Kepler takes stock of his situation, succumbs to a state of resignation and considers death as the greatest harmony of all. In his state of agony, music of the spheres can be heard; the constellations appear as allegorical figures in the opera and contradict Kepler’s negative concepts: lying beyond all that can be researched by mankind is a final majestic realm with the powers to ‘permit us to be amalgamated into a gigantic harmony of the spheres.’ / Date parution : 2022-07-20/ Répertoire / Opéra

Cavalli, Francesco La Calisto Dramma per musica in three acts Urtext from Francesco Cavalli - Opere Edition no. TP 891 ISMN 9790006205356 'La Calisto' received its first performance in Venice in 1651 but only really achieved its breakthrough in the 20th century. It is one of Cavalli's most frequently-performed operas today. The reason for this success may have been the late acknowledgement of its masterly dramatic and musical structure. The musical text is not presented in the usual small study score format, but in the vocal score format (19 x 27 cm). This results in an optimal and well-presented layout of the work. The study score is ideal for analysis as well as for rehearsing the vocal parts. - Reduced-size full score based on the first volume of the new Bärenreiter series, 'Francesco Cavalli ' Opere' - Reflects the latest state of research - Foreword (Eng) by the editor - English translation of the libretto included separately (not singable) - Practical for study and rehearsing the vocal parts

With 'L'Etoile?, Chabrier composed a light-hearted opera which has increasingly enjoyed revivals in recent years.The plot is introduced by King Ouf I who offers his subjects an execution every year on his birthday. Unfortunately the problem now arises that no crime has recently been committed which might serve as a reason for an execution. Finally, he finds a would-be victim in the young Lazuli. However, according to predictions by the astrologer Siroco, Lazuli's fate is closely linked to the king's own life. The comic opera is further bolstered by a story of mistaken identities which involves a great deal of diplomacy, a love story and a large number of refined, yet catchy melodies.Chabrier was a master of the sensitive and complicated art of musical comedy, a field where he can be compared in equal measure to Offenbach, Rossini and Mozart. / Opéra
