Henri
Dutilleux (1916-2013) was
greatly influenced by his
contemporaries, Ravel,
Debussy and Roussel, yet
implemented his own,
unique style. His Cello
Concerto, Tout un monde
lointain, is considered
to be one of the most
important20th century
additions to the
instrument's repertoire.
This Dutilleux Concerto
comprises five movements
which run seamlessly in
to one-another, each
inspired by the poetry of
Charles Baudelaire. The
movements are: 1)
Énigme(Enigma), 2)
Regard (Gaze), 3) Houles
(Surges), 4) Miroirs
(Mirrors), and 5) Hymne
(Hymn). Tout un monde
lointain was first
performed in July 1970 by
Russian cellist, Mstislav
Rostropovich with the
Orchestre de Paris. The
pieceremains popular to
this day, and including
the entire orchestral
score, this edition is
essential to the advanced
cellist's repertoire.
