From the Publisher
Comedie Francaise was first published by Phylloscopus Publications in 2002. Bryan Kelly has lived in France and Comedie Francaise reflects his affection for the country and its culture. The suite opens with a Preambule, setting the scene for the Valse, where unexpected harmonic twists are added to the classic waltz beat. A beautifully sad Chanson Tzigane comes next and the suite ends with Pantomime, subtitled "Hommage à Francis Poulenc". This is a vigorous, rhythmical movement, with touches of cheeky humour and references to popular styles and tunes. Players and audience will notice a brief, stage-door visit to the Moulin Rouge and the Can-Can troupe. Contents 1. Preambule 2. Valse 3. Chanson Tzigane 4. Pantomime e Hommage to Francis Poulenc Front cover: painting of LâInstitut de France, Paris by John Newberry.Item Details
