about

Karl-Heinz Schütz and Frédéric Chaslin met at the Wiener Staatsoper, where Schütz is Solo Flute and Chaslin appears regularly as conductor. Their meeting inspired Frédéric Chaslin to compose a work tailored to the flautist’s personality and quality of performance. The result is the Sonata for flute and piano, which they have recorded here for the first time. At the crossroads of the composer’s many inspirations, it gives free rein to the “sentiment parisien” which is also to be felt in Debussy and Poulenc. Karl-Heinz Schütz and Frédéric Chaslin bring them on this album together alongside works by Varèse, Honegger and Bozza. Its title, which echoes Debussy’s famous composition, reminds us that the word ‘syrinx’ also refers to the vocal organ of the birds. A promising title, to which the brilliant musicians do justice!


"Karl-Heinz Schütz et Frédéric Chaslin se rencontrent au sein du Staatsoper de Vienne. Le premier tient le pupitre de flûte solo de la prestigieuse institution, le second y dirige régulièrement. Dès lors, Frédéric Chaslin travaille à composer une œuvre taillée pour la sonorité et la personnalité rayonnante du flûtiste : ce sera sa Sonate pour flûte et piano, qu’ils enregistrent ici pour la première fois. Au carrefour des multiples inspirations du compositeur, elle donne libre cours au « sentiment parisien » que l’on retrouve chez Debussy, ou Poulenc.
Karl-Heinz Schütz et Frédéric Chaslin les réunissent sur cet album aux côtés des pièces de Varèse, Honegger et Bozza. Son titre, qui fait écho à la célèbre composition de Debussy, rappelle que le terme “syrinx” désigne également l’organe qui permet aux oiseaux d’émettre leurs vocalises… Un titre prometteur, auquel les musiciens font honneur !"
