Broken Words

Closing concert | Fauré – Enescu – Lacaze

To commemorate the centenary of the death of the French composer Gabriel Fauré, the members of Kammerata Luxembourg will be playing his first piano quartet as well as four gems from Fauré’s vast output of lieder. The programme also includes the Romanian George Enescu, known both as an excellent violinist and an extremely gifted composer. He was a pupil of Fauré at the Paris Conservatoire. In the Pièce sur le nom de Fauré (1922), composed during the lifetime of his revered teacher, Enescu transforms the letters of the name ‘Fauré’ into a sequence of five notes of a given pitch, on which he builds the entire piece. Finally, in 2020 the French composer Sophie Lacaze, born in 1963, created Broken words, a work based on texts by the Australian poet Henry Kendall, extracts from which are recited several times by the instrumentalists during the composition.
