Milhaud, D
Alry Publications presents Darius Milhaud's 'Corcovado' from his suite 'Saudades do Brazil' arranged for flute, violin, and cello by Warren van Bronkhorst.
'Saudades do Brazil (Longings for Brazil) is a suite of dances consisting of two sets of six movements, each named for a district of Rio de Janeiro. Each movement is dedicated to various friends and colleagues, some of whom Milhaud met in Brazil. The first set consists of 'Sorocaba', dedicated to Madame Regis de Oliveira; 'Botofogo', dedicated to Oswald Guerra, the talented musician-composer of the Conservatoire in Rio; 'Leme', dedicated to Nininha Guerra; 'Copacabana', dedicated to Leao Velloso, father of Nininha Guerra and a talented composer in his own right; 'Ipanema', dedicated to pianist Arthur Rubenstein; and 'Gavea', dedicated to Madame Henrique Oswald, wife of the director of the Conservatoire. Set two consists of 'Corcovado', dedicated to Madame Henri Hoppenot, wife of the French diplomat serving in the Legation in Rio; 'Tijuca', dedicated to the Catalan pianist Ricardo Vines; 'Sumare', dedicated to Henri Hoppenot; 'Paineras', dedicated to Baronne Frachon; 'Laranjeiras', dedicated to Audrey Parr, wife of the Secretary to the British Legation; and 'Paysandu', dedicated to Paul Claudel.' -Monty Roy Musgrave, 2005
'Corcovado' is in the form of a tango and is quite seductive in nature.
