Notes & Reviews:

Georges Aperghis was not the first well-known composer for musical theatre who neglected the less "spectacular" varieties of music. But unlike the "symphonic form," which Aperghis has rarely considered since his initial attempt in 1972, chamber music recurs throughout his oeuvre. As though staging a theatrical work, Aperghis plays his game in a chamber music hall with new instrumental combinations, creating a connection between the instruments and European musical tradition.
