| Naxos | One of the most famous French composers of the 20th century, Francis Poulenc has the popular image of a composer of large-scale choral works and colourful orchestral scores. Yet he was essentially a miniaturist with a prolific output of chamber and instrumental music, together with an extensive catalogue of songs in varying moods. The Violin and Clarinet sonatas feature among his more frequently performed works, Poulenc's characteristic mixture of vivacity and bittersweet melodies providing an immediate attraction. The Cello Sonata reveals the composer's ready sense of fun, though a feeling of nostalgia for the days of his youth tinges each of the four movements. This is the second disc in a series covering Poulenc's complete chamber and instrumental music. |
