Lalo was born
in Lille (Nord), in
northernmost France. He
attended that city's
music conservatory in his
youth. Then, beginning at
age 16, Lalo studied at
the Paris Conservatoire
under Berlioz's old enemy
François Antoine
Habeneck. For several
years, he worked as a
string player and teacher
in Paris. In 1848, he
joined with friends to
found the Armingaud
Quartet, playing viola
and second violin. Lalo's
earliest surviving
compositions are songs
and chamber works. He
dedicated most of his
career to the composition
of chamber music, which
was in vogue, and to
writing works for
orchestra.
These two
works beautifully
arranged by Mr. Sauder
show the core of Lalo's
chamber music; personal,
subtle at times and
filled with a French
lyricism.
For
advanced performers.
Antoine
