Wagner / Holmes: Concert

Augusta Holmès was a great admirer of Wagner (whom she met at the age of twenty-two) and that shows in her compositions. Two symphonic poems and the interlude La Nuit et l’Amour illustrate the heroic spirit that runs through the work of this atypical composer.

English

Who, if not Wagner ‒ whom she met at the age of 22 ‒ can make us understand Augusta Holmès's taste for musical excess? Two symphonic poems and the interlude La Nuit et l'Amour will make you feel the heroic breath that runs through the work of this atypical composer.

italiano

Qui d’autre que Wagner (qu’elle rencontra quand elle avait 22 ans) peut permettre de comprendre le goût d’Augusta Holmès pour la démesure musicale ? Deux poèmes symphoniques et l’interlude La Nuit et l’Amour feront sentir le souffle héroïque qui parcourt l’œuvre de cette compositrice atypique.
