CMS of Lincoln Center at PAC: French Enchantment: Experience the grace, wit, and charm of French music. The program begins and ends with early works by Saint-Saëns and Fauré that recreate the elegant atmosphere of 19-century Parisian salons. In between, the Ravel sonata, written soon after World War I, uses just two string instruments to produce a composition of unique, austere beauty. These three inimitable works capture the essence of pure melody in its most delightfully fundamental form.
Wu Han, Piano / Paul Huang, Violin / Matthew Lipman, Viola / Clive Greensmith, Cello
SAINT-SAËNS Trio No. 1 in F major for Piano, Violin, and Cello, Op. 18 (1864)
