About

The two works brought together on this recording might appear somewhat arbitrary, but are in fact like the reflection of a very agitated, very fecund period, when the word of a great philosopher or a great musician carried weight that is unimaginable nowadays. The word sonata covered multiple meanings for Dukas and Barraqué and they both followed Beethoven’s teaching – not to preserve the old forms, but to look through open windows to the sky.
