“Comp
osed between 1967 and
1970, Tout un monde
lointain for Cello and
Orchestra, by Henri
Dutilleux, is one of the
most important additions
to the cello repertoire
in the 20th century.
Lasting nearly half an
hour, each of the five
movements are inspired by
a poem of Charles
Baudelaire: 1. Énigme
/ Enigma 2. Regard / Gaze
3. Houles / Surges 4.
Miroirs / Mirrors 5.
Hymne / Hymn The main
theme, initially
introduced in the first
part Énigme / Enigma,
is often replayed through
the piece. The third
part, Houles / Surges is
the most difficult to
interpret with a Scherzo
part that's quite
challenging and no break
between the movements.
Henri Dutilleux was
internationally acclaimed
for his work, winning
prizes such as the Gold
Medal of the Royal
Philharmonic Society and
the UNESCO's
International Rostrum of
Composers, among many
others. His work also
includes a piano sonata,
two symphonies, the
Violin concerto 'L'arbre
des songes' (The tree of
dreams) and the string
quartet 'Ainsi la nuit'
(Thus the
night).â€.
