Fauré: Élégie and Cello Sonatas

Paul Tortelier & Jean Hubeau (2024 Remastered, Studio 1962)

1 disc(s) - 7 track(s)
Total length: 00:44:06

 

If Fauré's harmony is studied in conservatory composition classes, it speaks to its originality and beauty. Regarding Fauré's works for cello, the instrument can be described as the wordless voice of the master of the French lied. The harshness and brilliance of these pieces, which are both beautiful and tormented, find an excellent ambassador in Paul Tortelier. His pure lyricism highlights inner sentiment and depth of soul..

Jean Hubeau, on the other hand, brings bursts of brilliance that enrich this introspective atmosphere, achieving a perfect balance. This remastered edition enhances the presence of the string instrument, thereby providing a sound balance that can be described as delightful.

Enjoy your listening
