Performances of music by Jean-Michel Damase.
Trio pour flûte, hautbois et piano
Impromptu Duo
A complete performance of one of the most popular of Damase's chamber works. Recorded at the National Flute Association's 2011 convention.
Sérénade pour flûte et orchestre à cordes
Jean-Pierre Rampal, flute
Written at the request of Rampal, who asked for a brilliant virtuoso finale; so Damase, a close friend, wrote him a calm, quiet one instead.
Rhapsodie de printemps pour piano et orchestre
Jean-Michel Damase; piano
A rare recording of this delightful and very demanding concertante work for piano and orchestra.
Sonatine pour deux harpes – Presto
Ieuan Jones, harp
Emanuela Degli Esposti, harp
A brilliant performance of the final movement of this very demanding work. Ieuan Jones is the dedicatee of other works by Damase.
Drominiana pour piano à 4 mains
Akika Watanabe, Saeko Ueda; piano
Tremendously enjoyable work in three movements. Broadly, they are jazzy, lyrical, and exciting and polyrhythmic.
