A must-listen album for wind instrument lovers and students! Paul Hindemith was active in all aspects of music, not only as a composer, but also as a conductor, viola player, educator, and theorist. He experienced two world wars and came to the United States under the oppression of the Nazi regime. His life seems to have been marked by numerous difficult phases. Hindemith composed sonatas with piano accompaniment for most of the instruments in the orchestra. Hindemith's works in this recording are particularly important in the history of music. These works were at a crossroads, at a time when the avant-garde and late Romanticism still existed side by side. Hindemith's reputation was shaken at the beginning of the Nazi era, just before these five sonatas were written.In 1934, the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Furtwängler premiered the symphony \"Matisse the Painter\" with great success, but the piece caused great controversy (the Hindemith Affair), and in December Hindemith was declared an \"atonal noise writer\" by Goebbels, and in 1936 In 1936, Hindemith's works were officially banned from performance, and he was also criticized at the 1938 Exhibition of Decadent Music. Hindemith then left Berlin and went into exile in Switzerland and then the United States. These sonatas, written between 1936 and 1942, represent a deliberate return to classical forms, and in the words of musicologist and critic Claude Rostand (1912-1970), \"Hindemith's new style is a distinctive chromaticism that liberates from tonal instability and melodic fluidity. chromaticism,\" he clarified. It is also classical structure that he restores, which he describes as \"doing so rejuvenating his spirit with the most sovereign and daring freedom of thought.\" The avant-garde character of Hindemith's youth is not felt; rather, the instrument's idiosyncrasies are revealed through a firm, knowing expression of the instrument's character.The richness and precision of the tone produced by each member of the super wind ensemble \"Les Vents Francais\" is astonishing, and the music's liveliness and charm are enhanced by the virtuosity of their knowledge of each instrument. This is a superb album filled with the best of taste, color, and breath. For wind instrument lovers and students, this is a must-listen album.
