If you use two you’re getting double value and if you use three four or more you’re quids in!F…

Si Fauré avait choisi une formation imaginaire, un trio piano - clarinette - violon, quelle musique aurait-il écrit ? L'exercice ' à la manière de ', bien connu de nombreux compositeurs, est toujours prétexte à l'imagination.Ce trio imaginaire est en trois mouvements : une ballade, sorte mini-légende chevaleresque médiévale, un mouvement lent Requiem, dont la référence évidente tente de mener l'au…
