Ajoutée par magataganm, 16 Fév 2013 François Couperin (1668–1733) was a French Baroque composer, organist and harpsichordist. He was known as Couperin le Grand ("Couperin the Great") to distinguish him from other members of the musically talented Couperin family. The "Dialogue" is one of the bases of Baroque Music, and Couperin is a Master who takes every possibility into account. Though never going beyond one specific system of oposition (there are no "multiple" dialogues), his compositions of such a genre never lack a deep melodic sense of beauty and an internal pulse which, even when the "dialogue" does not exhibit gigantic sound proportions, keeps the music in permanent tension allied to an emotive tenderness reached thanks to the harmonic treatment of musical ideas. The present "Dialogue sur les Grands Jeux" fits its purpose: to drive the "Gloria" to a brilliant and sensible close. Although originally created for Grand Organ, I created this arrangement for Woodwind Quartet (Flute, Oboe, Bb Clarinet & Bassoon). Partition centrale : | Pièces d'orgue (3 partitions) | |
