Spoken

Kenneth Hesketh’s orchestrated version of Maurice Ravel’s Sites auriculaires, composed for two pianos between 1895 and 1897, will be followed by Poème for Violin and Orchestra by Ernest Chausson, a deeply contemplative piece that reflects the artistic personality of a man who was interested in all aspects of creativity, not only music.

Virtuoso performance is even more explicit in Ravel’s Tzigane, a demonic composition invoking traditional Hungarian music and circus-like acrobatics, commissioned by violinist Jelly d’Aranyi, who had worked with Béla Bartók.

In the second part of the programme, the voice will come to the fore, as we listen to Ravel’s rarely performed one-act opera L’heure espagnole, with a plot set in the workshop of a clockmaker, in which the folk element reappears from time to time.

English

Compuesta originalmente para dos pianos entre 1895 y 1897, la obra Sites auriculaires de Maurice Ravel podrá escucharse en la orquestación de Kenneth Hesketh. Seguirá el Poème para violín del compositor Ernest Chausson, una pieza profundamente contemplativa que refleja la personalidad artística de quien se interesó por todas las vertientes de la creatividad, no solo por la música.

El virtuosismo adoptará una forma aún más explícita en la Tzigane de Ravel, una composición endiablada que despliega maniobras circenses, invocando la tradición húngara, ya que no en vano fue un encargo de la violinista Jelly d’Arányi, que había colaborado con Béla Bartók.

En la segunda parte, la voz asumirá una importancia primordial, ya que se podrá escuchar la apenas programada ópera en un acto L’heure espagnole, de Ravel, con una trama en la que reaparece esporádicamente el elemento folclórico y que se desarrolla en el taller de un relojero.

español

Composta originalment per a dos pianos entre 1895 i 1897, l’obra Sites auriculaires de Maurice Ravel podrà escoltar-se en l’orquestració de Kenneth Hesketh. Seguirà el Poème per a violí del compositor Ernest Chausson, una peça profundament contemplativa que reflecteix la personalitat artística de qui es va interessar per tots els vessants de la creativitat, no només pel de la música.

El virtuosisme adoptarà una forma més explícita encara en la Tzigane de Ravel, una composició endimoniada que desplega maniobres circenses, tot invocant la tradició hongaresa, ja que no en va fou un encàrrec de la violinista Jelly d’Aranyi, que havia col·laborat amb Béla Bartók.

A la segona part, la veu assumirà una importància cabdal, ja que es podrà escoltar l’escassament programada òpera en un acte L’heure espagnole, de Ravel, amb una trama en què reapareix puntualment l’element folk i que s’ubica al taller d’un rellotger.
