Etudes de Concert, Op. 35

• Chaminade, Cecile

A reprint edition of this important piano work by the turn-of-the-century French composer, Cécile Chaminade (1857-1944). Affiliating herself with nationalist composers such as Saint-Saëns and Gounod, her style was very much rooted in both Romantic and French tradition, her tuneful and highly accessible works were also tremendous favorites in the United States. These six Études de concert, Op. 35, date from around 1885, as Chaminade was moving away from the salon-style pieces where she started to the successful concert tours on which she had begun to embark, and which would give her international fame. That said, while the Études de concert are larger works compared to her earlier salon pieces, they are not overly bombastic or virtuosic. Movements: 1. Scherzo, 2. Automne, 3. Fileuse, 4. Appassionato, 5. Impromptu, 6. Tarantelle.
