Less piano in this one,



A welcome alternative to the French Baroque! Thank you.

There is something in the gentle melancholy of this music that makes it wistful without being overbearing like an overdose of Liszt or Chopin.

Very easy on the ears.

Definitely music to be taken in small dosages along with a good serving of Baroque, Classical, Romantic and 20th century.

What do you think of Poulenc?  Excellent music, really.



I don't know Poulenc at all. He was neoclassical, right?


Yes. His music recalls a mix of Mozart, Chopin, Liszt and 19th century French. He even at times hearkens back to the Baroque, which makes his music fascinating.
