About
Bluthner Piano Series Anne Queffelec piano Handel Passacaille and Sarabande from Suite in G minor HWV432 Handel trans. Kempff Menuet in G minor HWV434 Poulenc Sicilienne Pavane Brans le de Champagne from Suite francaise d'apres Claude Gervaise Handel Suite dite de l'Harmonieux Forgeron mi maj HWV430: Prelude, Allemande, Courante, Air varie Beethoven Piano Sonata No. 14 in C? minor Op. 27 No. 2 'Moonlight Sonata' Debussy Reflets dans l'eau Ravel Miroirs Noctuelles,Oiseaux tristes,Une barque sur l'ocean,Alborada del gracioso,La vallee des cloches. Handel took the controversial dance form of the sarabande (banned for its obscenity in some countries) and turned it into one of the baroque period's most popular pieces. Poulenc, a highly accomplished pianist, usually composed at the piano and wrote many pieces for the instrument throughout his career. In Henri Hell's view, Poulenc's piano writing can be divided into the percussive and the gentler style reminiscent of the harpsichord. Hell considers that the finest of Poulenc's music for piano is in the accompaniments to the songs, a view shared by Poulenc himself.
