Fabulous to discover Yvonne Loriod as composer of Grains de cendre @OxfordSong - congratulations @PeterAsimov @clairegeosop @siriuschauflute @jongsun_woo

[Oxford Song (formerly Oxford Lieder) @OxfordSong]

Today our Mastercourse gets under way, alongside three recitals rooted in Paris. The relationship between Verlaine and Rimbaud is the basis for the lunchtime concert, before an event exploring Yvonne Loriod in her centenary year, and this evening we mark Fauré’s centenary.

Really looking forward to hearing Yvonne Loriod's song cycle Grains de cendre in Oxford next Monday @PeterAsimov @siriuschauflute @clairegeosop & Jongsun Woo https://t.co/QyLvZRSFh8

@PeterAsimov on Protagonizing Yvonne Loriod (rather than ‘rescuing’). Thought-provoking considerations of how we can reconcile 1) foregrounding the work of a self-effacing individual with 2) staying true to their self-presentation and the strategies they made.

Post standing ovation in Cassini delle Murge. A wonderfully kind welcome from the mayor and civic dignitaries. Today it’s on to Molfetta!

@NatashaLoges A live recording was made for the Conservatoire’s own archive, but I’m not sure it will be shared at this stage. But it’s something to hope for in the near future!
