About this concert
Genuine heroes live forever. François Couperin and Jean-Philippe Rameau, for instance, were figureheads of the French Baroque. Among composers who paid homage to them in musical fashion is Maurice Ravel, who in Le Tombeau de Couperin echoes his idol’s clarity, balance and refinement. In his turn, Claude Debussy wrote an Hommage à Rameau as part of Images 1. With Festival favourite Olga Pashchenko at the fortepiano and the harpsichord, this concert juxtaposes Baroque and neo-Baroque.
