Marcel Dupré: Piano and Chamber Works
Marcel Dupré (1886–1971) was the most prominent French organist of his generation, playing hundreds of recitals on his international tours, and his compositions have entered the standard organ repertoire. But his piano and chamber works have not received the same attention. They are audibly French – there are points of contact with Chabrier, Fauré and Satie – but they go their own surprising way, occasionally taking on a ritual, even hypnotic, character that imparts an oriental, quasi-minimalist, flavour.
Philip Nixon, violin
Rosanne Hunt, cello
Harold Fabrikant, piano
