Info zu Chausson: Poème de l'amour et de la mer & Symphonie Op. 20

Klingender Jugendstil: Ernest Chausson gehört zu den interessantesten französischen Komponisten in der zweiten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts. Sein dreiteiliger Liedzyklus Poème de l’amour et de la mer entstand zwischen 1882 und 1892 auf Gedichte von Maurice Bouchor. Die betörende, bezaubernde Ausdruckskraft des Werkkomplexes, die Dramatik und melodische Sinnlichkeit machen ihn zu einer klanglichen Entsprechung des damals im Entstehen begriffenen Jugendstils. Die unvergleichliche Véronique Gens erweist sich als kongeniale Interpretin dieser Musik. Die außerdem hier eingespielte Sinfonie B-Dur gilt als einer der unangefochtenen Höhepunkte französischer Sinfonik.
