Héritage

This recording explores Chopin’s legacy through the works of Liszt, Fauré, Szymanowski and Rachmaninov. The ballade, the nocturne, the mazurka and the prelude – all forms closely associated with Chopin – are transformed and reinvented here in very different musical languages. Each of these composers preserves a trace of Chopin’s influence whilst transforming it according to his own sensibility: Liszt gives the Ballade an almost symphonic scale, Fauré refines the harmonic colours of the Nocturne, Szymanowski juxtaposes Polish folklore with a modern musical language, whilst Rachmaninov sets the Preludes within a profoundly Russian world. Valère Burnon offers a fascinating journey of discovery through a legacy that has inspired – and will continue to inspire – generations of composers.
