Songs of The Auvergne
Music
Le French May Arts Festival 2014
Description
Description
Two sides of the French spirit meet: Olivier Messiaen wrote gorgeous musical meditations on the nature of spiritual love. His Les offrandes oubliées (‘Forgotten Offerings’) are a tender statement of deeply-held beliefs. Meanwhile, Joseph Canteloube’s ravishing songs from the Auvergne region capture the rustic lives of farmers and shepherds in the fields. Then we explore the indomitable northern spirit of Finland, with Sibelius’ second symphony, an emblem of his homeland’s pristine landscape.
