RAVEL Les mélodies hébraïques ... Anaïs Calikman/Claire Janicaud

Deux mélodies hébraïques
These two songs by Ravel were written in 1914 at Saint-Jean-de-Luz. The first song Kaddisch uses an Aramaic text from the Jewish prayer book; L'Énigme éternelle is based on a traditional Yiddish verse. They were first performed in June 1914 by Alvina Alvi (who commissioned them) with Ravel at the piano. Ravel orchestrated the songs in 1919-1920.
Enregistré lors du concert du TRIO THAMYRIS, le 31 mai 2015 à la chapelle Matisse de Vence.
