15 Jérôme Noetinger

The fact that, in all Britten wrote seven volumes of Folk songs attests to his fondness for popular music. Passionate about musical theatre, Jérôme Billy skillfully portrays the different characters in the rich musical setting provided by Alain Rizoul's delicate and virtuoso accompaniment. Concert artist and teacher Alain Rizoul has always strived to make his instrument known to audiences beyond the usual aficionados of the guitar. His musical philosophy, with its inherent humanism, and his desire to broaden the guitar repertoire have quite naturally led to commissions and first performances of contemporary works. A graduate of the Paris Conservatoire, Jérôme Billy is passionate about the connections between theater and music. He enjoys performing Mozart operas such as Die Zauberflote, Cosi fan tutte, and Don Giovanni. His theatrical encounters have reinforced his feeling that music and theater are not at all detached, but rather spring from the same source.

" contains three classic musique concrète compositions from Michel Chion. All were produced at the GRM in Paris (the acousmatic headquarters of the world). The itself is an electronic take on the traditional form. is a ‘technical study’ which takes an original waltz theme and fragments it. is considered a ‘monodrama’ — that is, a drama centering around one ‘character.’ In this case what we hear are the detached reactions of this ‘character’ to a nightmare.

Oscar Peterson Plays the Jerome Kern Songbook is a 1959 album by Oscar Peterson, of compositions by Jerome Kern.
Oscar Emmanuel Peterson, CC, CQ, OOnt, (August 15, 1925 – December 23, 2007) was a Canadian jazz pianist and composer. He was called the "Maharaja of the keyboard" by Duke Ellington, "O.P." by his friends, and was a member of jazz royalty. He released over 200 recordings, won seven Grammy Awards, and received other numerous awards and honours over the course of his career.

In the bicentenary of Paisiello’s death, Catania’s Bellini Theatre staged Fedra, a world premiere performance in modern times of this opera by the composer from Taranto. It was a musical and cultural operation of great interest, which saw the revival – based on the original manuscript and on various transcriptions – of a rich, complex score, and attracted the attention of the Italian and international critics. The French conductor Jérôme Correas, an authority in this repertoire, was on the podium. Fedra had only been performed once in the 20th century for a radio recording and had never been staged in our century before. That single radio recording, however valuable, is however incomplete and, unlike this edition, unfaithful, in many ways, to the original score.
