Over several decades, Pascal Rogé has gained the reputation as one the greatest interpreters of the French piano repertoire with his recordings of Satie and Debussy regarded as benchmark performances. On his latest release, Rogé is collaborator in a charming program of superbly crafted, elegant, and often witty music by the 20th century French master Francis Poulenc. Rogé is joined by cellist Lidy Blijdorp in Poulenc’s cello sonata, and pianist Elena Font in the composer’s Sonata for two pianos and the Sonata for piano four hands. Font is also featured on solo works by Poulenc: Mouvements perpetuels, Nocturne No. 1 in C, and select Improvisations.
