French Impressions: Poulenc's Organ Concerto

Multi-Grammy-winning conductor JoAnn Falletta draws out all the colours of the orchestra in this Calgary Phil concert of French music, including Jacques Ibert’s vivid musical postcards of Mediterranean locales, Lili Boulanger’s dreamy tone poem, and Debussy’s vibrant triptych depicting his “old friend, the sea … always endless and beautiful.” Jean-Willy Kunz joins the Orchestra on the Jack Singer Concert Hall’s mighty Carthy organ for Francis Poulenc’s Organ Concerto.
