This continuation of the critically acclaimed Hänssler Classic Koechlin cycle features shimmering, nocturnal interpretations of rare and rarely heard impressionist masterpieces! Written as a piano suite between 1913 and 1919, the work was orchestrated in 1921. Koechlin’s singular orchestration acquires an inexhaustible variety of shades and colorings through the blending of instrumental timbres. The unmistakable idiom of Les Heures persanes established Koechlin among the avant-garde French composers of his time.
