André Jolivet, Serge Nigg
Featured artists:
André Cluytens, Roger Delmotte
Serge Nigg is an almost completely forgotten composer nowadays, but was considered one of the most innovative young talents after the war, and later on had a very rich career in France’s musical institutions. Pierre Barbizet teamed with André Cluytens to record his first piano concerto. This album, definitely a fascinating document of French avant-garde, also features André Jolivet conducting his own compositions, two concertos for flute and trumpet.
