In January we celebrate the centenary of the greatest flautist in history, Jean-Pierre Rampal. The 1960s and 1970s mark the high point of Rampal’s collaboration with Erato with an outstanding series of landmark recordings, each of which being more beautiful than the other. In particular, two memorable baroque monographies are published.
One contains a large part of Handel’s flute sonatas (from the Op. 1 to the spurious Halle Sonatas) recorded with long-time keyboard accompanist Robert Veyron-Lacroix and was awarded a Grand Prix du disque. The other contains all the Vivaldi concertos with flute, including uncomplete ones then recorded for the first time ever! It also marks the beginning of a long and fruitful partnership with conductor Claudio Scimone.

Here is Volume 2 of the series "Nouveaux Territoires," launched by the ECM in the fall of 2000. The three works featured in this recording were premiered by the ECM on the occasion of an event entitled Unions Libres, each one being the result of a collaboration with an artist involved in a different medium. In their original format, along with dance, cinema, or poetry, these works attempt to draw together the thoughts and the concerns of today’s artists, throughout all mediums. Presented here in their strictly musical form, these compositions provide dialogues, filled with referents of a social dimension, in tune with the multimedia experience of Unions Libres.

Canadian Works for Oboe and Piano is a sweeping 2-CD compilation of fine Canadian repertoire for oboe and piano from the past 70 years. A celebration in honour of Canada’s sesquicentennial, the collection highlights the oboe’s personal, singing quality and is unified by the lyrical essence of all the works. This recording includes several Canadian oboe classics, three new works created especially for this project, three new arrangements of existing pieces, and a few interesting discoveries, including the world premiere of a work written some 40 years ago by a major composer but never performed live. The two discs feature an even mix of sonatas, shorter stand-alone works, and what could be considered suites. With one exception, all the works on these discs are receiving their first recorded performances here.

En s'appuyant sur une étude des archives, notamment américaines, et sur une analyse de la chronologie du plan Marshall, l'auteure démontre que, derrière cette aide économique à la reconstruction de l'Europe, se jouait en réalité la mise en place d'une hégémonie financière, commerciale, politique et culturelle états-unienne en Europe. …

« Tout est foutu, soyons joyeux. » « Rassurons-nous, tout va mal. » Voilà les maximes préférées de Clément Rosset, telles des remèdes à notre époque contemporaine angoissante. Il nous apprend à nous foutre de tout et à rester joyeux malgré notre condition de mortel, à être capable d’embrasser gaiement l’existence pour accéder à la sagesse et au bonheur, à écarter toute raison de désespérer…

Silvestre François Lacroix (Paris, 1765 - ibid., 1843) was a most influential mathematical book author. His most famous work is the three-volume Traité du calcul différentiel et du calcul intégral (1797-1800; 2nd ed. 1810-1819) – an encyclopedic appraisal of 18th-century calculus which remained the standard reference on the subject through much of the 19th century, in spite of Cauchy's reform of the subject in the 1820's.

En littérature, la microfiction a une origine légendaire, magnifique : Ernest Hemingway, mis au défi d'improviser l'histoire la plus émouvante possible en six mots, aurait écrit sur une nappe de restaurant : « À vendre : chaussures bébé, jamais portées. » Avec ces microréflexions, Alexandre Lacroix explore les possibilités de la forme courte en philosophie. En quelques pages, il aborde des thèmes aussi variés que la morale, les animaux, le deuil, l'érotisme, la fête, la douleur, le travail, le couple ou la solitude. …

Une philosophie de l'action limpide et concise pour permettre à chacun de mieux gouverner sa vie.
Nous sommes de plus en plus nombreux à en rêver: échapper au système, à cette maximisation du profit, partout, tout le temps, qui ravage nos sociétés et la planète. Mais rompre avec le mode de vie dominant exige des sacrifices que peu d'entre nous sont prêts à consentir. Entre la pleine adhésion et la fuite, un chemin existe-t-il ? …
