Martinu - Sinfonietta Giocosa

Martinu:

Sinfonietta Giocosa H. 282

Toccata & due canzoni, H. 311

Jazz-Suite for Small Orchestra

Claire Désert & Lidija Bizjak (pianos)

Orchestre de Picardie, Pascal Verrot

Another anniversary disc, this time for the 50th anniversary of Martinu's death.The musical language of the Bohemian composer is spontaneous and colourful with the jazz influences of his life in exile in France and the United States as well as reminiscences of Classicism.

“…fine sound, and splendidly light and airy accounts of the Jazz Suite (1928) and Sinfonietta giocosa (1940) with Claire Désert superb as the latter's soloist. …Verrot's performance is light and full of movement…” Gramophone Magazine, December 2009
