RAVEL   * Le Tombeau de Couperin * * Valses Nobles et sentimentales *   DEBUSSY * Petite Suite * * Prelude a L'Apres-Midi d'un Faune *   OO  Paul Paray   Detroit Symphony Orchestra  

Was ist ein Faun und was hat er am Nachmittag vor? Die musikalische Antwort auf diese Frage gibt Claude Debussy, indem er den lüsternen Gott der animalischen Fruchtbarkeit gleich zwei schlafenden Nymphen auf den Leib schickt. Dafür gibt er seinem Protagonisten betörende Flöten- und Harfenklänge, nebst weich ab- und anschwellendem Melodien mit auf die Pirsch. Dass das Stück mit seiner delikaten Thematik durch choreografische Interpretationen den öffentlichen Musikbetrieb dauerhaft anregte, verwundert kaum. Allerdings überzeugt das als sinfonisches Poem angelegt Prelude mit seinen schillernden Klangfarben und wechselnden Stimmungen völlig - auch ohne Bühnenaktion.
Gemütsbewegungen der heiteren Sorte versprechen Ravels Valses nobles et sentimentales, mit ihrem Wiener Verve. Die acht Kompositionen lassen keine Stimmung dreivierteltaktiger Seligkeit aus. Mal scharf konturiert, dann süß-sentimental, verträumt, hastig und wieder von elegantem Schwung beflügelt, arbeitet das satt instrumentierte Walzerwerk.
Mit dem feierlich erhabenen "Le Tombeau de Couperin" zum Schluss, wird die Werkauswahl zu einem repräsentativen und sagenhaft klingenden Ausschnitt der französischen Moderne abgerundet.

 

Aufnahme: April 1959 im Paradise Theatre und Dezember 1955 in der Old Orchestra Hall, beide
Detroit, USA, von C.R. Fine / Produktion: Wilma Cozart und Harold Lawrence

    What exactly is a faun and what does he do in the afternoon? Claude Debussy gives us a musical answer to this question by sending off the lecherous rural deity of fertility to have his pleasure with two sleeping nymphs. The bewitching sound of flutes and harps along with lilting melodies accompany the god while on the hunt. With its delectable, filigree themes, it is hardly surprising that this composition has continued to inspire choreographic interpretations since its conception. Composed, however, as a symphonic poem, the "Prélude à l’après-midi d’un faune", with its iridescent tonal colouring and varying moods, is a sheer delight to the ear alone. Emotions of a cheerful kind are evoked by Ravel’s Valses nobles et sentimentales with their Viennese verve. The eight compositions are filled with every sort of joy and bliss that a waltz can offer. The one is sharply contoured, the next is sweetly sentimental, another dreamy, this one is hurried, yet another sweeps along with elegance - and the instrumentation in each case is gloriously sonorous. This album closes with the solemnly magnificent "Le Tombeau de Couperin" and thus offers a both representative and delightful choice of modern French works.
