Summary:

French composer Ernest Chausson (1855-1899) came late to music and his promising career was cut tragically short by a fatal accident; nevertheless, his musical legacy comprises work in every genre, including the critically acclaimed Concerto in D for Piano, Violin and String Quartet. This masterful work exhibits the significant influence of his teacher Cesar Franck, particularly in its cyclical form, numerous modulations, and deeply expressive lyricism. Grove's notes that "He wanted to prove, above all ... that a sonata or a quartet may contain as much music as a whole opera, " and this brilliant chamber work attests to the success of his efforts. Reproduced here from an authoritative source, it is certain to enchant musicians and music lovers.
