About

The Ostinato literally went through ages - it’s a musical process founded on the repetition of a rhythmic, or melodic, or harmonic formula. It’s the ’weft’ of passacaglias, ciacconas… and of very popular works such as Ravel’s Boléro, or Pachelbel’s Canon. This process also inspired a lot of pop musicians, or minimalist American composers.

Vincent Dumestre
chose this way to propose, as much to 'fans' as to the general public, a thematic route within the best of Poème Harmonique’s recordings. At the same time, it's a sort of Poème Harmonique 'portrait'.
