The Czech Bohuslav Martinů made his breakthrough in Paris in 1928 with La revue de cuisine - and you can literally hear the cooking utensils dancing happily around the stove. In this delicious "kitchen revue", he brings pinches of irony, savoir vivre and 1920s zeitgeist to the (cooking) point.
From the kitchen to the Grand Boulevard, with Francis Poulenc, who created a monument to his beloved hometown with his work: car horns, street noise, hustle and bustle, but also a strolling Parisian beauty can be made out in this entertaining sound portrait. A similar stylistic panorama of the 1930s from Budapest finally opens up with Ernst von Dohnányi, who surprises with a jazzy finale.
A watch-this-space evening curated by BRSO pianist Lukas Maria Kuen with three sextets to mark 25 years of the BRSO Academy.
