Violin : François Pineau-Benois Piano : Guilhem Fabre Live concert recorded in France, Villefavard Auditorium (read more about composer below) With the support of the Safran Foundation ((http•••)) and of the Tcherepnin Society ((http•••)) The composer Nikolaï Tcherepnin +••.••(...)) was the conductor of Diaghilev's Ballets Russes orchestra and collaborated with the architect and painter Alexandre Benois. His most famous work is Pavillon d'Armide. He was the teacher of Sergei Prokofiev, whose compositions he oversaw. He fled with his family to Paris in 1920, where he championed and conducted the music of Stravinsky. He helped Serge Rachmaninov found the Paris Russian Conservatory in 1923, whom he was the first director. Which was later renamed the Paris Rachmaninov Conservatory.((http•••) Tcherepnin composed his Cadence Fantastique in 1915. His style had evolved since his first contact with the romantic traditions of Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninov and his later fascination with French impressionism; the score, in fact, shows his originality along the lines of Scriabin's experimentation with 'mystic chords'. Harmony is in perpetual evolution, and the composer has used a formidable array of virtuosic techniques - almost pyrotechnical - which give a sense of continual emotional urgency. The music, also arranged for violin and orchestra, was dedicated to Alexandre Mogilevsky, a celebrated pre-revolutionary violinist. The use of the adjective 'fantastique' can be understood in particular during the first half of the piece, taking us on an unpredictable journey where the denial of feelings, anguish, exultation and rage can burst out at any moment. The same elements can be found in his ballet, commissioned by Diaghilev, Le Masque de la mort rouge ("Mask of the Red Death") inspired by Edgar Allen Poe. Both works are included in the same opus number 42. In the Cadence Fantastique, a brief meditative overture on the piano leads to a care-free cadenza for the violin. What follows could be described as a scene from a crazy opera, a scene where the protagonist is not the usual heroine sung by a coloratura soprano but rather an ecstatic, hyper expressive violin in a state of agitated frenzy. Finally, an accelerating series of slashing chords on the violin reaches a climax. A long pause follows and then the piano plays dreamlike low notes while the violin embarks on a long elegiac passage. It is only at the end that the music finally achieves some consolation and reconciliation. François Pineau-Benois (http•••)
