Splendid program of French music beginning with “Le Double” Symphony , which Charles Munch conducted as head of the OSR in 1962, shortly after its premiere by the same conductor in Boston. Its subtitle comes from its arrangement comprising, like the ancient concerto grosso, a small formation, intimate, secret, in dialogue with a large one. Polyrhythm, polytonality, sound distribution in space seasoned with various percussions, this compositional cuisine produces dreams, magic, bewitchment and pure poetry. An educated bourgeois, who died prematurely of a stupid bicycle accident, Ernest Chausson left very personal works inscribed in the “end of the century” spirit which saw the birth of Impressionism. Poème de l'amour et de la mer (without a definite article) is one of his most striking creations in which the symbolism achieves a perfect match between the text and the music. As for La Valse by Maurice Ravel, recorded many times by the OSR, it is a tribute to the Viennese waltz that Ravel loved so much, but it is above all the expression of the end of a world, that of 19th century forever engulfed in the horror of the Great War of 14-18.
