André
; Jolivet (1905-1974)
composed Chant de Linos
for the Solo de Concours
at the Paris
Conservatoire in 1944.
Written for Flute, Harp
and String Trio. This
piece is quite difficult
to execute but will stand
out in a competition or a
recital. Inspired from
what is called a Chant de
Linos, a threnody (or
lament to the dead) in
the Greek antiquity, this
piece is also about
Linos, son of Apollo. A
brilliant musician, Linos
taught Orpheus the Lyre
and got killed by
Heracles for excessive
criticism. André
Jolivet is a French
composer who was greatly
inspired by the Antiquity
and had a strong interest
for atonality. He also
wrote many chamber music
pieces, eleven concertos,
some orchestral and some
vocal music.
