Les Fantaisies pour violon de Telemann sont parues en 1735 à Hambourg au milieu d’un foisonnement d’œuvres similaires publiées entre 1732 et 1735 : 12 Fantaisies pour flûte, 12 pour viole, 36 pour clavecin… Même pour un compositeur aussi prolixe que Telemann, 72 Fantaisies en quatre ans, c’est impressionnant ! Si les Fantaisies pour flûte ont été très souvent jouées et enregistrées, les Fantaisies pour violon sont plus souvent restées dans l’ombre, souffrant sans doute du voisinage écrasant des Sonates et Partitas de Johann Sebastian Bach. Certains les ont considérées comme mineures, faciles, les ont regardées avec un tantinet de mépris… de la musique pour élèves de conservatoire.

Helene Fischer now enchants even the youngest and surprises with a new project! Now Helene Fischer is coming up with one of the probably most beautiful surprises of the year: the superstar will be releasing her own brand new series under the title "The most beautiful children's Songs" with a hand-picked selection of the most beautiful and wonderful children's songs.

Dass sie mit ihrer starken Stimme, treibenden Beats und mitreißenden Ohrwurm-Texten die Zuhörer regelrecht in einen Rausch versetzen kann, hat Helene Fischer längst bewiesen. Spätestens seit „Atemlos“ werden ihre Songs mit einem bleibenden musikalischen Hochgefühl gleichgesetzt.

On her new album, pianist Hélène Grimaud explores the rich universe of German Romanticism, combining Robert Schumann's Kreisleriana op. 16 with Brahms' Intermezzi op. 117 and Lieder und Gesängen op. 32. Grimaud has known Schumann's Kreisleriana for most of her life.
