Francois Leleux and Eric Le Sage

Edinburgh International Festival 2017 Queen's Hall Series
Episode 9 of 17

Donald Macleod presents works for solo oboe and piano performed live at the Edinburgh International Festival by Francois Leleux and Eric Le Sage.

Francois Leleux and Eric Le Sage perform a selection of chamber works for oboe and piano, beginning in the neoclassical and angular tonal world of Saint-Sa毛ns and Hindemith's sonatas. Then follows Poulenc's tender sonata written in his final year, in memory of Prokofiev, alongside Schumann's Adagio and Allegro Op.70 -originally written for the newly arrived valve horn. After the interval, Dutilleux and Schumann's lyrical offerings precede Antal Dorati's expansive and demanding Duo Concertante. Dorati considered himself a 'conducting composer' and commented that 'writing music is the very focal point of my life.'
