Description
This re-release is a model example illustrating the principles for which MDG has stood for forty years: outstanding artists perform magnificent music often situated off the mainstream.
Ludwig Thuille participated in “Ritter’s Round Table� with his friend Richard Strauss. For the young composer still in search of his musical self, the encounter with Liszt’s ardent admirer and Wagner’s friend Alexander Ritter, in whose home these gatherings were held, must have been a revelation.
By contrast, Francis Poulenc is always associated with spontaneity, musical wit, and improvisation. And in fact Poulenc hardly pursued studies in the traditional sense of the
term – which makes the architecture of his Sextet all the more impressive.
Recommended.
