Ravel at the Barbican - François-Xavier Roth London Symphony Orchestra
[…] Malagueña and the Habanera. Dance is disciplined movement, dancers following structure to express emotion. In the Feria this tension between restraint and freedom breaks through: burgeoning crescendoes, lit by cymbalas, note sequences that descend and rise again. Boléro got the wildest applause, and a standing ovation, because it’s a showstopper, but the sheer quality of the LSO's playing in Rapsodieespagnole was far higher. Luxury casting for Ravel's L'heure espagnole: Isabelle Druet, Jean-Paul Fouchécourt, Thomas Dolié, Edgaras Montvidas and Nicolas Cavallier. Hearing it in concert performance illuminates the orchestral logic which underpins the plot. The clocks are invisible, but they're everywhere - ticking relentlessly, imposing form on time, the way dance inmposes form on motion. En masse, they can be manic. Torquemada (Fouchécourt) is regulated by machines, which is why Concepción (Druet) needs to find human pleasures elswhere. But with whom ? Gonsalves (Montvidas) is romantic but he's a bad […]

First there’s the glitter and grand gestures of five of the Arcanes Symphoniques, the deck of tarot-inspired pieces that occupied Dubugnon on and off throughout his 30s. But the real novelties are the premiere recordings, taken live in concert, of two heady settings of even headier texts by novelist Stéphane Héaume. Triptyque (1999) pits a baritone, the resonant Thomas Dolié, against lean but vivid textures, astringent harpsichord and eerie celesta cutting through wind and brass. Le Songe Salinas (2003), a nocturnal “opera for one singer” using full orchestra alongside North African instruments, is persuasively delivered by mezzo Nora Gubisch and the Orchestre National de France, conducted […]
