Mélanie Bonis: Piano Quartet No. 1 as Music Piece of the Week
Mélanie Bonis: Piano Quartet No. 1, performed by Clémence de Forceville, Léa Hennino, Benedict Kloeckner and Adam Laloum as Music Piece of the Week
Mel Bonis’ quartet in B flat is certainly the work to which she devoted herself with the greatest passion. This work, which lasts about 25 minutes, calls for great effort by skilled musicians. It is composed of four movements – Moderato – Intermezzo – Andante – Finale. Allegro ma non troppo. It is difficult to say what is most admirable about this work – the beauty of its melodies, the originality of the harmonic inventions or the composer’s skill – and that from the first movement.
