This collection showcases Jolivet's masterful compositions for violin, both as a solo instrument and accompanied by piano. The album spans a concise yet impactful 58 minutes, featuring a variety of pieces that highlight Jolivet's unique voice in the chamber music genre.
The suite "Suite Rhapsodique pour violon seul" is a standout, with its five movements—"Praeludio," "Aria I," "Intermezzo," "Aria II," and "Finale"—each offering a distinct mood and technical display. The album also includes the evocative "Rhapsodie No. 1 pour violon & piano," the haunting "Incantation sur la corde de Sol pour violon seul," and the introspective "Miroir pour violon seul." The three-movement "Sonate pour violon & piano" rounds out the collection, with its dynamic shifts from the compact "Ramassé" to the expansive "Librement (très lent)" and the energetic "Bousculé."
André Jolivet's compositions are known for their rich harmonies, rhythmic complexity, and expressive depth. This album is a testament to his enduring influence and innovation in chamber music, offering both seasoned enthusiasts and newcomers a rich exploration of his artistry.
