Eugène Ysaÿe, a violin virtuoso admired by all his contemporaries, was an inheritor of what has justly been considered as the Belgian school of violin, whose ascendancy can be traced back to the beginning of the 19th century. His work as a composer, however, is much less well known today and it is this facet of his extraordinarily active life that we will explore here. He composed many different types of works; here we present his works for solo violin and orchestra, including two movements of violin concertos which are now available on record for the first time, and his chamber music.

At nearly 90 tracks, this four-disc set is indeed pretty much the ultimate Byrds compilation, running through the group's entire history with Columbia Records, including all the obvious singles like "Mr. Tambourine Man," "Turn! Turn! Turn!," and "Eight Miles High" as well as key album tracks and B-sides, making this a wonderful portrait of a fascinating pop band evolving from folk-rock through psychedelia to country to a nascent template for today's country rock. It's particularly nice to hear two of Gene Clark's most gorgeous love songs, "She Don't Care About Time" and "The World Turns All Around Her," together in one package, along with what might be David Crosby's most gorgeous pop song, the ebullient "Lady Friend." Throw in songs like "So You Want to Be a Rock and Roll Star" and you have a great seat to the story of how a wonderfully quirky folk-rock band played it all out, emerging as one of the most influential bands in the whole history of rock & roll.

When the four-CD Byrds set was first released in 1990, it was something of a landmark in Columbia Records' history on several counts. For starters, it was the first box set ever released by Columbia Records' pop division (as opposed to its jazz division) devoted to a noncurrent act (that is, they'd already issued boxes on Bob Dylan and Bruce Springsteen, but both of them were active artists), and there had been boxes of sorts on Miles Davis and some other jazz figures, but their place in music history was already a given, whereas the Byrds, to Columbia Records' management and a lot of mainstream critics and even most listeners not attuned to their history, were "nothing" but a defunct rock act…

Après de brillantes études au Conservatoire de Marseille, Christian Gaubert cultive très tôt son éclectisme en montant un trio et un big band de jazz puis en mettant ses qualités de compositeur, arrangeur, chef d’orchestre au service des grands noms de la chanson (Aznavour, Bécaud, Mort Shuman, Croisille, etc…) et surtout en travaillant pour le 7ème art (plus de 140 partitions). Au cours de sa carrière il fait appel à de nombreux musiciens (Marc Chantereau, Pierre Alain Dahan, Richard Galliano, Daniel Humair, Jean-Jacques Milteau, Guy Pedersen, Jean-Luc Ponty, Jean Schulteis). D’une affinité particulière avec André Ceccarelli et Jannick Top est né le premier album « Ligne Sud Trio » avec pour invité Thomas Savy.

Hélène Grimaud is a French-born virtuoso pianist known for her fearlessly individual interpretations of standard and lesser-known piano repertoire. Also a devoted wildlife conservationist, in 1999 she founded the Wolf Conservation Center in South Salem, New York. Grimaud was born in Aix-en-Provence in 1969, and both of her parents worked as teachers. She began exploring the piano when she was seven years old, and she studied with Jacqueline Courtin. Later, she studied with Pierre Barbizet in Marseille, and when she was 13, she was accepted into the Paris Conservatory, where she studied with Jacques Rouvier. After three years at the conservatory, Grimaud won the premier prix in piano performance. She sought further refinement at the conservatory and enrolled in the cycle de perfectionnement under Rouvier; she also received instruction from György Sándor and Leon Fleisher.

You probably missed the limited UK screening of the film Le Roi Danse. It is a film about the historical relationship between Louis XIV and his superintendent of music, Jean-Baptiste Lully over four decades of the 17th century. As one might expect, most of the music is by Lully himself and is intended for choreographed dancing drawn from his early ballets de cour, his highly entertaining middle-period comedic-ballets and finally his propagandistic tragedies lyriques. The music of Lully's contemporaries is represented by two dances of his predecessor on the violin, Jacques Cordier, a single air de cour of his fatherin-law, Michel Lambert, and an air and a recit from Cambert's 1671 opera Pornone. All the selections, snatched from their original context, sit somewhat uncomfortably, and the booklet essays do little to allay this impression.
