A beautiful
slow dance that captures
the essence of beauty.
The 'Pavane' pulls at the
audience and causes a
reaction of quiet
reflection. Musicians
will share the joy of
playing this wonderful
composition.
The
Pavane - an old stately
dance of Italian or
Spanish origin - can be
traced back to the 16th
century. French composer
Gabriels Faure's Pavane,
written in 1886 for
orchestra for a series of
concerts in Paris, exudes
charm, gentility even;
the music flows easily
yet with a sure sense of
direction. In 1919 the
composer reused it in his
one-act divertissement
Masques and Bergamasques.
Faure was much revered
during his lifetime as a
professor of composition
at the Paris
Conservatoire for many
years together with his
connection with church
music as an organist. In
concert performance the
Pavane benefits from
being allowed to unfold
at its own unhurried pace
and in its (mostly) own
quiet way.
