Immerse yourself in the captivating world of André Jolivet's "Toot Suite," a remarkable collection of chamber music that showcases the composer's unique brilliance. Released on November 10, 2006, under the Music Square label, this album offers a rich tapestry of compositions that highlight Jolivet's mastery of form and expression.
The album opens with Jolivet's "Concerto pour violoncelle No. 2," a three-movement work that demonstrates the composer's deep understanding of the cello's expressive range. The suite continues with a series of pieces for trumpet and orchestra, including the evocative "Incantation pour trompette et orchestre," the mournful "Thrène pour trompette et orchestre," and the lively "Danse pour trompette et orchestre." These works are followed by the three-movement "Concerto pour trompette et orchestre," which showcases Jolivet's ability to blend lyrical melodies with rhythmic complexity.
The album concludes with the "Concertino pour trompette, orchestre à cordes et piano," a delightful piece that highlights the interplay between the trumpet, strings, and piano. Throughout the album, Jolivet's compositions are characterized by their inventive use of harmony, rhythm, and melody, as well as their ability to evoke a wide range of emotions. With a total duration of 1 hour and 7 minutes, "Toot Suite" is a testament to Jolivet's enduring legacy as one of the most important French composers of the 20th century.
