Description: | Henri Tomasiâ??s violin works are little known but they offer a compact insight into the direction of French
20th-century composition. The Violin Concerto â??Périple dâ??Ulysseâ?? is a late work, by turns alluring, tragic and
violent, conveyed through rhapsodic virtuosity and a rich sense of colour. The Capriccio is full of elegance
and refinement with emotional intensity in its slow movement and brilliance in its finale. Chant hébraïque
conjures up oriental motifs while the sequence of early works for violin and piano reference Tomasiâ??s
Corsican heritage and evoke quasi-cinematic exoticism. - .. WORKSHenri Tomasi's violin works are little known but they offer a compact insight into the direction of French 20th-century composition.
