Pieces from ballets and operas adapted for organ
Pieces from operas and ballets: Les Indes galantes, Hippolyte & Aricie, Zoroastre, Castor & Pollux, Platée, Dardanus, Les fêtes d’Hébée, Pygmalion, Les Paladins. Adapted for organ by Yves Rechsteiner.
Yves Rechsteiner talks about his undertaking:
That Rameau never composed any works for organ remains one of our great regrets in the history of music. For Rameau was a great organist and the exact contemporary of Bach, Handel and Scarlatti, also major organists and composers. He occupied several posts as organist in the provinces before his role as a musical theorist and composer of operas drew him away from the organ. Yet the absence of written scores for organ by Rameau has not prevented some inevitable links between his music and the world of the organ.
This was the background to my selection of Rameau’s works to be arranged and adapted for organ. My choice was based on my own personal affinities amongst his wide range of major operas.
Preface by Yves Rechsteiner (history, recordings, style). Three volumes Irst vol., 60 pages under cover, ref. OR4595 - 18,50 euros

| 2010, THE YEAR OF RUSSIA IN FRANCE |
|
The heads of state of the two countries decided 2010 would be the Year of Russia in France and the Year of France in Russia.
The relationship between Le Chant du Monde and Russia goes back to Chant du Monde's earliest days in 1938, when it was founded. The sponsoring committee is famous and has included such prestigious musicians and composers as Georges Auric, Roger Désormière, Arthur Honegger, Charles Koechlin, Darius Milhaud, Francis Poulenc, Manuel Rosenthal and Albert Roussel.
The earliest concerts organised by Le Chant du Monde had works by French composers as well as Russian of the calibre of Shostakovich, a revelation for French audiences.
After the Second World War, Le Chant du Monde signed a publishing contract with Serge Prokofiev, Dimitri Shostakovich and Aram Khatchatourian et Nikolaï Miaskovsky. Then, after the Iron Curtain had been lifted, Le Chant du Monde signed directly with their heirs. This forthcoming Year of Russia in France will undoubtedly be the occasion to rediscover composers who may have fallen into oblivion, as well as giants such as Shostakovich. In the former category, composers of the twenties feature prominently Mossolov, for instance, whose only remembered work is The Steel Works, Knipper with Plain, My Plain, Roslavets and later Alexander Lokshin and Vissarion Shebalin.
Scores on sale or for hire (at the music library of orchestral material): The great 20th c. Russian composers, i.e. Prokofiev, Khatchaturian, Kabalevsky, Miaskovsky, Shebalin, Shostakovich, Mossolov, Knipper, plus those of the following generation, especially Edison Denisov, Alfred Schnittke, Sofia Goubaidulina, Yuri Kasparov, Nicolai Karetnikov and finally those of the New School such as Kurliandsky and Voinova.
Our catalogue of Russian music will soon be available. Contact us to reserve your copy now: cdm@chantdumonde.com.
Le Chant du Monde is therefore going to be a privileged partner in this official Year of Russia in France.
