Flégier: Mélodies For Bass Voice & Piano
) | Label: TOCCATA CLASSICS Catalog: TOCC0306 Format: COMPACT DISC Demer, Thomas; Schwartz, Jared; Dibbern, MaryThe French composer Ange Flégier (1846-1927) enjoyed considerable frame in his own time but has now been completely lost from view. The extraordinary reception of his song Le Cor points to the predominant place held by the Melodie in his catalogue of more than 350 works. Flégier's songs, composed for his colleagues at the Opera de Paris, are large-scale and orchestrally conceived, sitting stylistically close to Faure in their unassertive dignity and to Duparc in their sense of scale. Many of them receive their first recordings or first modern recordings here.  Price: $27.98 |
