Editions Musicales Transatlantiques presents Andre Jolivet's 'Petite Suite' four flute, viola, and harp.

'The son of a painter and a pianist, Andre Jolivet exhibited early musical talent. His strongest musical influences included Debussy, Dukas, Ravel, Le Flem, and Varese. In 1936, Jolivet, along with composers Olivier Messiaen and Yves Baudrier, formed the group known as 'La Jeune France.' Sharing an interest in spiritual concerns and a desire to widen the emotional range of music, this group promoted spiritual values and human qualities in a ‘mechanical and impersonal’ world.

Of particular importance to Jolivet was the rediscovery of music’s original ancient meaning and expression. It is Jolivet’s particular use of repetition that results in an equally static, evolutionary, meditative, and spellbinding atmosphere.'

- Catherine Ramirez; Shelter From the Storm
