A luminary of the Parisian musical establishment as composer, pianist and teacher, LOUISE FARRENC won the admiration of her contemporaries, not least Robert Schumann. Her Rondos were composed within the period of a decade and are delicious examples of her art – graceful, elegant and expressive. Some of them are based on operatic themes or on songs, while others are simpler and intended for younger performers. ‘Maria Stratigou has a full mastery of Farrenc’s romantic style and a technique to match’, wrote American Record Guide of the first volume in this acclaimed series (GP912-13).
