Pour Cor Anglais (Ou Flûte Ou Clarinette Ou Alto) Violon Et Violoncelle-Rarely has a musical work been better characterized by its subtitle than Nicolas Bacri’s Lyric Interlude: ‘A Study in Pastoral Style’. When in 2008 the composer received the commission for a piece with English Horn from Cecilia Benner patron of the Chamber Music Society of Detroit he immediately thought of the duo between this instrument and the Oboe that Berlioz in the Symphonie fantastique placed at the beginning of the ‘Scène aux champs’ making suddenly appear a nocturnal country landscape where two shepherds carry on a dialogue on their pipes. First performed in March 2009 atone of the Scarab Club Concerts in Detroit the Lyric Interlude for English Horn Violin and Cello (Op.110a) nonetheless proclaims another tradition: that of British pastoralism illustrated by the music of Ralph Vaughan Williams (1872-1958) the 50th anniversary of his death having just been celebrated. This score pays him homage of rare sensitivity: set off by refined counterpoint the undulating lament of the beginning rhythmically supple evokes the waving wheat as does Vaughan Williams in the opening undulation of his Symphony No.3. The lyrical effusion briefly interrupted by a scherzo in 6/8 again pours out making the work evolve towards a slow ecstatic atmosphere close to the last of the English composer’s Three Preludes on Welsh Hymn Tunes. Far from bucolic postcard clichés and servile imitation this Lyric Interlude opens the doors to a realm where pure beauty reigns. The composer also wrote another version of this work for English Horn (or Flute Clarinet or Viola) and Piano Op.110b (AL 30 750)

Adaptation pour cor anglais par Gilles Silvestrini?
La Rhapsodie pour saxophone et orchestre fut commandée à Debussy en 1901 par Elise Hall, une riche saxophoniste américaine. En 1903, une première partitition était recopiée, réalisée sur cinq ou six portées avec quelques indications d?orchestration. Pour des raisons inconnues, Debussy ne poursuivit pas son travail. Ce n?est qu?en 1919 que l?ouvrage fut créé, dans une orchestration de Jean Roger-Ducasse.
En 1935, le chef d?orchestre André Ansermet réorchestra l?ouvrage, en prévoyant plus de soli pour le saxophone, ceux-ci prélevés dans les parties orchestrales. Par la suite, de nombreuses réductions pour saxophone et piano s?inspirèrent de la version d?Ansermet.
Dans cette présente adaptation pour cor anglais, eu égard au caractère intimiste de l?instrument, j?ai été amené à choisir des solutions inédites, privilégiant la plus parfaite fusion avec le piano. / Partitions classique / Bois / Hautbois / EDITIONS DELATOUR FRANCE
