Click on the link here for Audio Player – Trio Pasquier, with Jean-Pierre Rampal and Odette Le Dentu – Roussel Quintet Serenade op. 30 – Recorded by ORTF, Paris – circa 1953 – Gordon Skene Sound Collection
Back to Paris this week for an encore performance (originally posted 3 years ago in not-so-good sound) by the highly acclaimed Pasquier Trio with guests the legendary Jean-Pierre Rampal on flute and harpist Odette Le Dentu in the Quintet Serenade op. 30 by Albert Roussel.
Still guessing as to the date of this broadcast, via ORTF in Paris. I initially said it was 1948, but I am starting to think it may be 1952 or 1953. Any clarification from my French friends would be greatly appreciated.
In any case, a broadcast performance of a work not played often, coupled by a rare performance not made available commercially.
A win-win situation for this Sunday night.
Enjoy.
