Good news! The French Composer Philippe Manoury launches his blog (unfortunately, available in English only through a translation gateway). There you will find besides his biography, his catologue and bibliography, some videos and musical analysis (at the moment Wozzeck). This space defines itself as a place of knowledge, of learning about (savant) music in general, and contemporary creation especially… so just enjoy it!

I particularly like Philippe Manoury, but don’t play it yet, through lack of time. I promise, I want to play the two sonatas for piano! If you don’t know Philippe Manoury yet, then rush to your nearest music store, I especially recommend you “La ville (… première sonate…)” – a tribute to the historic quarters of Prague – magnificently performed by Jean-François Heisser.

You have certainly understood, I am a fan of Manoury… and I’m very delighted to share with you my passion!
