No artist has been more alive to the enjoyment of life's pleasures than Pierre
Auguste Renoir (1841-1919). His paintings reflect a delight in the existence
of the world and its beauty, expressed in colours drenched with light and sunshine.
On this CD, the world of Cézanne is given a musical perspective with
a carefully chosen selection of pieces by the finest composers of his time.
Inside, Hugh Griffith provides explanatory notes on his life and musical environment.
