.. Seasons / Chevalier De Saint-george: Violin Concerto |
 |
Description: | It is no surprise that Renaud CapuƧon recognises Vivaldiā??s Four Seasons as ā??a highlight of the violin repertoireā?¯, yet only now has it joined his extensive Erato discography. ā??For years, I refused to play it,ā?¯ explains CapuƧon. ā??Iā??d heard it too much in the corridors of the MĆ©tro in Paris and as holding music on the phone. But once Iā??d accepted to play it, I was blown away by the power of the music ā?¦ I realised that itā??s famous because itā??s amazing ā?? a masterpiece. Iā??ve now played it frequently with Orchestre de Chambre de Lausanne and it feels fresh and new every time.ā?¯
Complementing Vivaldiā??s ā??greatest hitā?? are two sparkling concertos composed in Paris, some 40 years after the Italian composerā??s death, by Chevalier de Saint-George. Of French and African descent, he was born on the Caribbean island of Guadeloupe and went on to become a prominent and influential figure in Paris The composer of 12 violin concertos, 10 symphonies, two sets of string quartets and a number of operas, he has been described in the New York Times as a figure who holds a ā??truly unique place in Western classical music historyā?¯. In Saint-Georgeā??s own time, John Adams, the second President of the USA, described him as ā??the most accomplished man in Europe in riding, shooting, fencing, dancing and musicā?¯. - ..
