Sept pièces pour piano. Par LAKS SIMON. Simon Laks (1901-1983), who moved from Warsaw to Paris in 1926 at the age of 25, belonged to the large group of composers from Central and Eastern European countries who went down in 20th-century music history as the ?École de Paris?. Slavic temperament amalgamated in their music with French esprit, the folklore of their native countries combined with the stylistic elements of neoclassicism and jazz typical of the time. As a member of the ?Association of Young Polish Musicians?, Laks quickly made his way into French musical life. However, his career was ended with the beginning of World War 2 due to the collaboration of the Vichy government with Nazi Germany. Internment in 1941 was followed by deportation to Auschwitz in 1942. Laks survived the Shoah as a member and later leader of a camp band in Birkenau, which he testified to in his moving book Music in Auschwitz. After the traumatic experiences, Laks did not return to regular compositional activity until the 1960s, producing an opera, songs, and chamber music works, some of which were awarded important composition prizes. At the peak of this optimistic creative phase, he composed incidental music for Peretz Hirschbein's famous Yiddish comedy Dem Schmids Techter (The Blacksmith's Daughters), which premiered in New York in 1918, for a new production of the play at the Théâtre de l?Entrepôt in Paris. Along with Prokofiev's Overture on Hebrew Themes and Shostakovich's cycle From Yiddish (Jewish) Folk Poetry, it is one of the most significant 20th-century explorations of art music with Jewish folklore ? homage to a culture irreparably destroyed. From the original score, Holger Groschopp compiled two suites, for violoncello and piano and piano solo, that capture the essence of Lak?s enchanting drama music. The premiere recording of the suites with Holger Groschopp and Adele Bitter was awarded the Opus Klassik 2023 in the category Editorial Achievement of the Year. . / Niveau : moyen - avancé / Date parution : 2024-01-06/ Répertoire / Piano

Par BERTRAND ELISE. « Si les artistes rendent si rarement compte de leurs instants d'inspiration, la raison en est bien simple: c'est qu'à ces moments-là du processus créateur ils ne sont nullement présents par la conscience. Ils ne peuvent pas davantage s'épier psychologiquement au cours de la création elle-même qu'ils ne peuvent, par-dessus leur épaule, se regarder écrire. » Egon Schiele « Artists: Sometimes the best way to address a problem in your work is to go in the cage with it and let it devour you. » Jerry Saltz Ces deux maximes qui décrivent à merveille ce que je peux ressentir au moment d'écrire à propos de ma dernière ?uvre pour piano Dans les abysses de lumière. Composée en parallèle de ma Sonate pour violon seul, mon ?uvre pour piano Dans les abysses de lumière op.17 (2021-2022) est un retour aux sources important, comme a pu l'être chaque retour à la composition d'une ?uvre pour piano (Préludes op.1 en 2014-2015, puis le Poème, op.5 en 2016, les Quasi Variazioni op.7 en 2018). La sensation de ressourcement lors de l'écriture pour piano seul vient intimement de mon enfance, où le piano est arrivé dans ma vie dès mes cinq ans. Chaque ?uvre pour piano que j'ai écrite marque un tournant dans mon rapport à la composition, une étape nouvellement franchie. Avec cet op.17, c'est un regard plus distancié et ouvert que j'ai posé sur la structure, le langage, le rapport au temps et à la dissonance. Durant un an, sans contrainte de temps, je suis revenue périodiquement à la composition de cette pièce, sans y toucher parfois pendant des semaines entières. J'y percevais alors des paysages, des couleurs, des instants de vie qui se faisaient écho. Puis, l'obsession revenait et je composais d'une traite un pan entier. La pièce en « cours de composition » vivait à mes côtés. Élise BERTRAND / Date parution : 2023-06-01/ Etude / Piano
