"I had forgotten how eclectically buoyant is Poulenc's Concerto for 2 Pianos (1932)...Stravinsky and French cabaret style merge in an alternately percussive and lyrical color mix, tinted by echoes of the Balinese gamelan and the arioso of Massenet. Witty and pungent, the concerto allows Quattro Mani (Four Hands) any number of brisk frolics through Poulenc's airy, pentatonic, musical boulevards...It's all very charming, idiomatic Poulenc, the ensemble under maestro Yoo generously endowed with vivid colors. Darius Milhaud's imaginative Second Concerto (1961) clearly takes its cue from Bartok's 1937 Sonata for 2 Pianos and Percussion...the piece exudes an oriental exoticism fused with Parisian experimentalism on the order of Edgard Varese. Tinkling colors drip from the skies. This is Alice in Wonderland music..." -- Gary Lemco, Audiophile Audition |
