| Disc No: CYP2619 | Although he is the most productive composer of our century (1065 numbers in the catalogue), only a small part of the work of Heitor Villa-Lobos is known, including the famous Choros et Bachianas brasileiras. It can be said that Villa-Lobos was a self-taught musician ; he learnt the guitar, the cello and commenced his musical career playing in cafés and with street musicians, before embarking on a long journey across Brazil from 1908 to 1912. He absorbed the musical traditions of his country, but was also influenced by European composers and he finished by combining all this material, which was both popular and erudite, to create a music with an extraordinary freedom of language. Paul Klinck and Claude Coppens offer a first, the complete work for violin and piano; in addition to the three Sonates-Fantaisies (the score of the fourth was in all likelihood lost between France and Brazil in 1930), we discover for the first time six small pieces, seductive miniatures which are easily accessible and complete an exceptional disk. |
