Faure - Summer Holiday Composer
The Faure page has gone up now and there is a definit summery feel to some of his music and that in enhanced by the steel drums instrumentation in these arrangements.
The Dolly Suite is a real trip down memory lane for me - it is remarkable how evocative a piece of music can be. Other peices such as the Barcarolle generate pictures in the imagination of meadows and warm breezes. This is defintitly music to smile to while the Nocturne is a more reflective piece and with the Sicilienne we are back in the sunshine again.
