The polystylistic riches of his music mark Alexandre Tansman as a free- and clear-thinking composer. Polish-born and active in Paris and the USA, Tansman had a successful career and his music now enjoys renewed interest worldwide. The sinuous contours and tender melodies of his Clarinet Concerto contrast with the ever-changing musical styles of his Concertino for Oboe, Clarinet and Strings. The Six Movements for String Orchestra form a cycle unified by their deftly conceived interrelationships. His 24 Intermezzi and Petite Suite (8.572266) and Chamber Music with Clarinet (8.570235) are also available.
