Fetes galantes was actually planned as a hybrid opera-ballet to a libretto by Debussy's friend Louis Laloy. For this, Laloy arranged selected poetry by Paul Verlaine into three tableaux, replacing an earlier (unstarted) Debussyan project with Charles Morice entitled Crimen amoris. During his last productive summer of 1915, Debussy set a sequence from the start of the first tableau, 'Les Masques', involving stanzas 1 and 3 of the opening song for Mezzetin in Verlaine's comedy Les Uns et les autres. The action is set in a park a la Watteau late one summer afternoon as Mezzetin attempts to entertain a group of nonchalant masqueraders with only the aid of his voice and a mandolin.This appears to have been prefaced by a slower, elegiac introduction reminiscent of the opening of the comtemporary Cello Sonata and it leads to a danced minuet by the masqued dancers which has clear echoes of the piano piece L'Isle Joyeuse (1904). Following Laloy's scenario, the mas-queraders then sing extracts from Verlaine's 'A la promenade' (from Fetes galantes itself). The minuet returns at greater length before being cut short by a chilly gust of wind, after which the park returns to its orginal state (and music) as though nothing had really happened.

This selection is intended to reveal a less-known aspect of the genius of Franz Liszt, the greatest pianist of the 19th century: as a master of piano miniatures. While his large-scale works written over many years show Liszt as a striving composer for whom the creative process was difficult, at the same time, hidden in the shadow of the monumental peaks, the 'moments musicaux' tend to capture him in the process of improvisation, at the moment when a compositional idea flashed into his mind and was first noted down. The miniatures that feature in our selection trace his creative path through six decades (1827-1885), from his youthful testing of his wings right up to his finalfarewell. The manuscript of any piece that did not later become part of a cycle or the starting-point for a larger-scale composition generally remained in the mists of obscurity as a treasured memento preserved by one of his pupils or admirers. Diese Auswahl will eine weniger bekannte Seite FranzLiszt, des größten Klaviergenies des 19. Jahrhunderts, diedes Meisters der Klavierminiaturen vorstellen. Seine übereinen langen Zeitraum vieler Jahre entstandenen Werke,wie die Klavierkonzerte, symphonische Werke oder dasChristus Oratorium, zeigen ihn als mit sich kämpfenden und schwer schaffenden Komponisten. Nicht so, die imSchatten der monumentalen Kompositionen stehenden 'moments 'usicaux“. Diese halten Liszt im Momentder Improvisation fest, lassen die kompositorischen Ideenin ihrem ersten Aufleuchten erstarren. Die Miniaturendieser Auslese führen durch die sechs Jahrzehnte seinerschöpferischen Laufbahn (1827-1885),beginnend beiden Versuchen der Jugendzeit bis zum letzten Abschied.Die Manuskripte der Stücke, die später nicht Teil einesZyklus oder Anfangspunkt einer großangelegten Kompositionwurden, versanken im Dunkel der Unbekanntheit.
