Lovely outcome of the Timbre & Colour in French Music symposium @royalbirmcons.bsky.social : viol player Lucy Robinson sent me her veggie cookbook. Beautifully presented & surely the only cookbook to reference Forqueray? @renaudmachart.bsky.social ?

Renée Fleming interviewed this morning on BBC Radio 3. #Dutilleux was hugely fond of her - he had a big photo of her in his flat! Here she is singing Dutilleux's last work, Le temps l'horloge: www.youtube.com/watch?v=L6R_...

The extraordinary Herzgewächse by #Schoenberg (that vocal line!) Fun fact: #Boulez played the harmonium in a 1945 performance and #Poulenc played the celesta part in 1921. Imagine if they had performed together in an ensemble... www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qzk...
