Various Artists – Chanson Et Danses [CD]

Flutist, composer, and teacher Paul Taffanel (1844-1908) was to have a decisive influence on the development of chamber music for winds in France. In 1879 he founded the Socit de musique de chambre pour instruments vent (Society of Chamber Music for Wind Instruments). The organization’s objective was to expand and promote chamber music repertoire for winds. On this recording, the Oslo Kammerakademi performs chamber works for winds by composers Charles Gounod, Charles Koechlin, Florent Schmitt, Thodore Gouvy, and Vincent d’Indy, several of which were composed for the Socit de musique de chambre pour instruments vent.
