Alpha bring down from the archive shelves at Radio France, a series of recordings related to the composer, director and pianist Arthur Honegger.The wax engravings of Rugby or Pacific 2.3.1 symphonic movements are famous (or at least known) but music and record lovers will covet this rare Decca version of Symphony No.3 'Liturgique' under the direction of the author. Also to be discovered are fifteen rare melodies, presented and sung here by voices chosen by Honegger, all the more interesting since the composer himself sat at the piano. A priceless window onto the world of Arthur Honegger.
