Lili Boulanger D'un matin de printemps Fanny Mendelssohn Trio for keyboard in D minor, op. 11 / Piano Trio in D minor, op. 11 This program brings together two prominent figures of female musical creation. In D’un matin de printemps, Lili Boulanger deploys a composition with luminous colors and the rhythmic momentum characteristic of her language. A century earlier, the Trio in D minor, op. 11, by Fanny Mendelssohn fits fully into the German Romantic aesthetic, revealing a remarkable formal mastery and a close dialogue between the instruments. This program brings together two striking women from music history. D’un matin de printemps is a sparkling tone poem in which Lili Boulanger evokes a fresh, light-footed spring atmosphere. A century earlier, Fanny Mendelssohn wrote her Piano Trio, op. 11, a work that is firmly anchored in German Romanticism. Strong formal mastery and a close dialogue between the instruments give this trio a striking power.
