Hervé Biju Duval

Television composer Frank Duval scored several hits in Germany, including 1979's "Todesengel" and the following year's "Angel of Mine." Born in Berlin in 1940, he studied as an actor and dancer, but also sang with his sister, Maria. By the '60s, Duval was also composing music, both orchestral and pop, and his debut soundtrack for an episode of the German serial Tatort aired in 1977. Much busier with composition work during the late '70s, Duval also released some of his recordings through Teldec. From his 1979 debut Die Schönsten Melodien Aus Derrick und der Alte, "Todesengel" became a moderate hit.

César Franck’s Rédemption (1873) is a pivotal work. It is an “ode-symphony”, coming at the crossover point between oratorio, opera and symphonic poem – a vein brilliantly exploited by Franck in Psyché (1888) and Les Béatitudes (1891). Rédemption also marks a further progression: with this vast fresco César Franck became “le père Franck”, leading father figure in the new French compositional school, the composer of maturity, creator of Le Chasseur maudit (1883), the Variations symphoniques (1885) and Les Éolides (1885). Here we see the organist becoming a virtuoso in handling grand orchestral or vocal forces and taking his place amongst the major composers of the Symbolist period.

Cinéma commercial contre films d'auteur ? Cinéma populaire contre cinéma élitiste ? Loi du marché contre règles de l'art ? La dualité entre superproductions hollywoodiennes et films d'art européens semble traverser toute l'histoire du cinéma depuis les années 1920. Mais les frontières entre ces deux espaces n'ont jamais été figées, comme l'explique Julien Duval dans cette sociologie novatrice du champ cinématographique au XXe siècle. …
