¡Poulenc: Bellet Works Sinfonietta (Japanese Title)
¡Jean-Luc Tingaud (conductor) / RTE National Symphony Orchestra
Description
[Machine Translation] Three orchestral works by Poulenc. The ballet music "The Deer" was composed by the 24-year-old Poulenc. Diaghilev, the leader of the Ballets Russes, asked Poulenc to compose this extremely elegant and light work. Marie Laurencin was in charge of costumes and set design at the premiere. Inspired by her paintings, the work was a great success and, as the title "L'enfant terrible" suggests, it fully expresses the mood of the Paris salons in the 1920s. The Model Animals" is a ballet music completed in 1941, based on a fable by La Fontaine. Of course, it is not merely a depiction of animals, but also a keen observation of human beings. The final piece, "Sinfonietta," is not ballet music, but rather an expansion of the idea for a string quartet, and is a work from Poulenc's mature period, in which charming melodies appear one after another. The entire work is full of French spirit.
