Franck Symphony in D minor
From tragedy to triumph, this concert explores the extremes of human feeling as expressed by Lili Boulanger and César Franck. The centerpiece of the program is the apex of Boulangers achievement as a composer, Du fond de labîme (Out of the depths), written in 1917, only a year before her tragic death at the age of 24. In this astonishing work, she interweaves voices and instruments into a free-flowing mélange of styles and textures, incorporating all the major strains of musical thought that were present during the early years of the 20th century.
We conclude with the paramount achievement of French Romanticism, Francks Symphony in D minor, a work that encapsulates infinite shadings of darkness and light in its three movements. A favorite of audiences and performers alike, this symphony is notable for its use of cyclic form, in which musical themes appear and reappear throughout the symphony, interacting with each other like characters in an opera.
