COCTEAU, JEAN, ERIK SATIE and LES SIX
COCTEAU, JEAN, ERIK SATIE and LES SIX
An historic and useful collection comprising the celebrated 1920 recording 'L'album les Six', with six short piano pieces, one by each composer; 2 pieces recorded in 1929 with Cocteau himself speaking and singing and the Dan Parrish Jazz Orchestra playing; extracts of Auric's original soundtracks for five of Cocteau's films and - perhaps musically most important - Milhaud's extraordinary 'Le Boeuf sur la Toit' for small ensemble, Satie's 'Parade', for ensemble with gun, typewriter &c., and Honneger's graphic quasi futurist hymn to big locomotives, 'Pacific 231'; all introduced by Cocteau. Well-illustrated with comprehensive notes.L
