About This Item
United Kingdom: LTM, 2014. CDs in Slim Double Jewelcase. New (Very Fine)/New (Very Fine). 5.5" x 5. LTM 2571. This outstanding two-CD collection offers a comprehensive overview of the French avant-garde in the 20th century. Commencing with pioneers Claude Debussy and Erik Satie, this chronological collection moves forward to absurdist and dreamlike Dada and Surrealist compositions (Duchamp, Picabia, Desnos, Ribemont-Dessaignes), as well as the more conventional work of Jean Cocteau's celebrated 'Group des Six', and onwards to postwar electronics and musique concrete by Schaeffer, Henry and Varese. Works by a number of modern composers (Messiaen, Boulez, Greif, Catoire, Hersant) are also featured, several of these being world premiere recordings by noted French pianist Nicolas Horvath. With a generous playing time of 140 minutes, this set contains an illustrated booklet with detailed historical notes. CONTENTS: Please see my accompanying scan image of the Track List. Total Time: ca. 2:20:00. CONDITION: A NEW unplayed, factory-sealed copy. Complimentary upgrade to securely-packed First Class shipping on domestic (USA) orders.
