A Norman composer from the early 20th century and a little-known figure in French music, Gabriel Dupont was one of the last representatives of French post-romanticism, which died with him at the dawn of the Great War.
With a remarkable sense of harmony and an undeniable talent for colour, Dupont depicted fragments of life to evoke a sensation, a moment, an interior landscape.
Cyrille Dubois and Tristan Raës capture his sensibility, rooted in the everyday life, in this complete recording, a new stage in their melodic odyssey, sublimating the art of a composer whose supreme refinement consists in being moved (and moved) by a wrinkle (‘La Rencontre’), a perfume (‘Crépuscule d’été’, ‘Le Baiser’) or a light (‘Douceur du soir’).
