Teacher, soloist, chamber musician, conductor and composer ? flautist Eric Ledeuil, a student of Patrick Gallois and Benoit Fromanger, wears many hats. This diversity continually enriches his educational work, as can be seen by the success of his flute method La flute imaginative, published by Leduc in two volumes (AL 30 365 and 30 367). Fete a Camelot, a piece for flute and piano (or harp) for fourth-year students, reconnects with the Knights of the Round Table, an imaginary world that has long been a source of musical inspiration for Ledeuil: the key figures of the legend appear in his Les Meandres de Viviane (AL 30 495, Beginner) and Les Mysteres de Broceliande (AL 29 589, Intermediate). This work is set in King Arthur?s fortress: the great halls ring out with the sounds of joyful festivities, interspersed with echoes of Viviane?s song. A Knight?s story of his quest for the Holy Grail is followed by the furtive appearance of Morgan le Fay, but she gives way to the Lady of the Lake ? Viviane ? whose distant melody shrouds itself in melancholy tones. The work concludes with a fisel, a traditional Breton dance that whips the troubadours? enchanted instruments into a frenzy..

Tribute to a Maestro is an homage to Jean-Philippe Rameau (1683 1764), one of the most important French Baroque composers. Rameau was a hugely significant composer, organist, harpsichordist and music teacher: he also published several authoritative books on music theory. Jan de Haan based this tribute on a theme from ‘Les Sauvages’ (The Savages), the fourth act of Rameau’s ballet-opera, Les Indes Galantes (The Amorous Indies). The work begins with two variations, whereupon the striking theme can be heard. After a short intermezzo, four more variations follow, of which the last one is composed in Baroque style. Tribute to a Maestro is een hommage aan Jean-Philippe Rameau (1683 1764), een van de belangrijkste componisten uit de barok. Deze Fransman was niet alleen componist, organist, klavecinist en muziekpedagoog, maar ook muziektheoreticus. Hij publiceerde verschillende toonaangevende boeken over muziektheorie. Jan de Haan baseerde dit eerbetoon op een thema uit het oeuvre van Rameau, namelijk ‘Les Sauvages’ (De wilden) uit de vierde akte van een van Rameaus balletopera’s, Les Indes Galantes (De hoffelijke Indiërs). Het werk begint met twee variaties, waarna het markante thema is te beluisteren. Na een kort intermezzo volgen dan nog vier variaties, waarvan delaatste in barokstijl is gecomponeerd. Tribute to a Maestro ist eine Hommage an Jean-Philippe Rameau (1683 1764), einen der bedeutendsten Komponisten der Barockzeit. Der Franzose war nicht nur Komponist, Organist, Cembalist und Musiklehrer, sondern auch Musiktheoretiker. Er veröffentlichte einige grundlegende musiktheoretische Bücher. Jan de Haan stützte seine Huldigung auf ein Thema aus Rameaus Werk, nämlich Les Sauvages“ (Die Wilden“) aus dem vierten Akt von Rameaus Ballettoper Les Indes galantes. Das Stück beginnt mit zwei Variationen, woraufhin das bemerkenswerte Thema erklingt. Nach einem kurzen Intermezzo folgen vier weitere Variationen, von denen die letzte im Barockstilkomponiert ist. Tribute to a Maestro est un hommage Jean-Philippe Rameau (1683-1764), l’un des plus importants compositeurs du baroque. Ce Français était non seulement un compositeur, organiste, claveciniste et enseignant de musique, mais aussi un théoricien de la musique. Ses nombreuses publications font autorité en théorie musicale. A la base de cet hommage de Jan de Haan est un thème de l’œuvre de Rameau, notamment « Les Sauvages » du quatrième acte de l’un de ses opéra-ballets, Les Indes Galantes. L’œuvre commence par deux variations la suite desquels on entend le thème saisissant. Après un court intermezzo, quatre autres variations s’ensuivent, dont la dernière estcomposée dans le style baroque.

1st perf: Sarah Nicolls, The Warehouse, London, 12 December 2003 Lute Stop, inspired by the legendary playing of Glen Gould and Alexis Weissenberg, is the latest bravura solo from Morgan Hayes, an outstanding young British composer of piano music. The interpretative style of these performers, favouring a block-like rather than a nuanced approach to dynamics, is mirrored in the formal aspect of the piece and the extreme dynamic contrasts of its material. Sudden shifts in register, octave doublings and quiet left-hand punctuations also feature prominently in the textures, suggesting changes of registration on a harpsichord - hence the title.
