Neat discovery on Francis Poulenc’s birthday! The composer and Jacques Février play Poulenc’s Concerto for Two Pianos. The orchestra is conducted by Georges Prêtre, one of Poulenc’s most authoritative interpreters. Of course, this same team made a classic recording of the work for EMI. I’m just pumped that there’s a film, and that it’s so pristine! While it’s undeniably fun to watch the interplay between the two pianists in the fleeter passages, my favorite part of the piece has always been the second movement, clearly indebted to Mozart, but also touched by Poulenc’s characteristic wistfulness.
