21TH CENTURY HIDDEN GEMS GUARANTEED EMOTIONS
Composed in 1951, Symphony No. 1 by Henri Dutilleux unveils a strikingly original sound world: radiant colours, taut motifs, vibrant poetry—everything pulses with a mysterious energy that defies the dogmas of the avant-garde. A captivating masterpiece to rediscover! Completed in 1919, in the shadow of the First World War, the Cello Concerto by the British composer Edward Elgar is a deeply moving meditation, an elegy in memory of a vanished world, where lyricism becomes intimate and poignant. Victor Julien-Laferrière, unforgettable First Prize winner of the Queen Elisabeth Competition 2017, conveys its intense and gripping emotion.
