Product Description

Product Description

This recording brings together three composers who knew each other and worked together in Paris in the first half of the 19th century: Liszt was a composer and pianist, as was Reber, who studied with Anton Reicha and devoted much of his career to chamber music. Berlioz came to fame in 1830 with the première of his Symphonie Fantastique, on which occasion he first met Liszt: the beginning of a strong friendship between the two composers. The works presented here offer a panorama of French musical tastes from the years 1830-1850. Two are world premiere recordings. Through three different instrumental works, Paris of the Romantics enables us to show all the different aspects of Romanticism in music in France at the time of Louis-Philippe. It is a tremendous asset for creating new ways of looking at this repertoire and for bringing the concert world a little closer to that of recordings. Jérémie Rhorer Although I had often played it before, I learned a great deal about this concerto from working on it with the magnificent Érard of 1837 from the Edwin Beunk Collection that we use on this recording. Bertrand Chamayou

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely stunning! 24 Mar 2013

What triggered me to buy this CD was another review where they raved over the content of this CD especially the 4th Symphony in G major by Napoléon-Henri Reber indeed an imposing name for a composer. Always quite sceptical when certain records are hyped in this way I was a bit reluctant until I heard the final movement. Quite a chock to hear this exhilarating, bubbling music full of unexpected twists and turns played to perfection on period instruments by Le cercle de l'Harmonie under its conductor Jérémie Rhorer and to discover this composer totally unknown to me.

But not only Reber's wonderful Symphony will surprise you but a transparent and illuminating interpretation of Liszt's 1st Piano Concerto in E flat major played by Bertrand Chamayou on an Érard piano,favoured by Liszt and Chopin!
A tonal spectrum more incisive and open than what you experience with the grand pianos such as Bechstein and Steinway.

But this CD and you are in for a most pleasant surprise!
