Info for Fauré: Orchestral Works
Gabriel Fauré ist vor allem für sein „Requiem“ und seine „Pavane“ bekannt, aber diese sind nicht typisch für ein Werk, das sich hauptsächlich auf Soloklavierstücke, Lieder und Kammermusik konzentrierte, von denen viele von anderen orchestriert wurden. Sein Violinkonzert wurde nie vollendet, aber der erhaltene erste Satz offenbart Faurés charakteristische Verspieltheit in Bezug auf Rhythmus und Harmonie. Das kurze Vorspiel zu „Pénélope“, Faurés einziger Oper, vermittelt die düsteren und leidenschaftlichen Stimmungen der Titelheldin, es ist hier neben beliebten Stücken wie der ergreifenden „Élégie“, dem beliebten „Dolly“ und der unter Flötisten berühmten „Fantaisie“ zu hören. Jean-Luc Tingaud dirigiert das National Symphony Orchestra of Ireland, Solist des Violinkonzerts ist Pierre Fouchenneret.

Pierre Fouchenneret
who is an ‘artiste associé’ of the Fondation Singer Polignac, won recognition at a very early age. At 12, he won first prize at the CNR in Nice; at 16, he won the first prizes for violin and for chamber music at the CNSM in Paris; he went on to become a Natixis laureate and a laureate of the Concours International de Quatuor à Cordes de Bordeaux. Having learned so much from excellent teachers such as Alain Babouchian at the CNR in Nice, Olivier Charlier at the CNSM in Paris, and Devy Erlih, Pierre Fouchenneret is keen to pass on what he has learned and has himself become a teacher at the Pôle Supérieur in Bordeaux.
In 2013, he founded the Strada quartet with François Salque, Sarah Nemtanu, and Lise Berthaud. His virtuosity, ‘his intense, precise, and vivid playing’ (Classica), and his passion have also been recognised by French and international orchestras, including those of Bordeaux Aquitaine and Dijon, the Orchestre Philharmonique de Nice, the Brno Philharmonic, the Baltic Sea Philharmonic, and the St Petersburg Philharmonic. A chamber music enthusiast, he is also the violinist of the 71 string trio, in the company of Eric Picard and Nicolas Bone.
His first recording, of the Mendelssohn trios, came out in 2007. He later obtained the Choc Classica for a disc devoted to the French composer George Louis Onslow. A great lover of the music of Beethoven, he recorded the complete violin sonatas in 2015 and the composer’s last two quartets in 2016. In 2017, he began a cycle of Brahms’s complete chamber music with Eric Lesage.
Pierre Fouchenneret’s work, as one can appreciate in his various recordings, bears witness to an unceasing quest for a pure, restrained aesthetic as well as to a profound love of and respect for the score.
Jean-Luc Tingaud
is a regular guest in leading opera houses in Europe and the US, and his discography includes Sapho recorded at Wexford (Fonè), Werther recorded at Martina Franca (Dynamic), La Voix humaine recorded at Compiègne (DVD) and Rossini’s Le Siège de Corinthe (Naxos 866032930) recorded at Bad Wildbad. Tingaud’s orchestral recordings for Naxos include an acclaimed album of works by Paul Dukas with the National Symphony Orchestra of Ireland (8573296) regarded by Fanfare as being ‘at the head of the pack. We seem to have before our ears a French George Szell in the making. Tingaud’s performance of La Péri would sweep the field’.
Jean-Luc Tingaud studied with the French conductor Manuel Rosenthal. Notable opera engagements have included Pénélope and Le Roi malgré lui (Wexford Festival Opera), Roméo et Juliette (Arena di Verona), Faust (Macerata), The Turn of the Screw (Lille), Dialogues des Carmélites, La Bohème and Madama Butterfly (Pittsburgh) among others. Orchestras he has conducted include the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, English Chamber Orchestra, Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra, Filarmonica Arturo Toscanini, the Warsaw and Kraków Philharmonics, Orchestre National des Pays de la Loire, Orchestre National de Lyon, Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra, the Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin and the orchestras of the Teatro Carlo Felice, Genoa and the Teatro Massimo, Palermo.
Making his Naxos debut with this recording, violinist Pierre Fouchenneret’s commitment as a soloist and as a chamber musician has seen him much in demand at venues around the world, his ‘extraordinary bow’ (Le Figaro) rapidly seeing him collaborating with exceptional musicians. As a founding member of the Strada Quartet and others he has been involved in recordings of chamber music by Beethoven, Brahms, Fauré and Schumann.
