Honegger:Jeanne D'Arc Au Bûcher/A Christmas Cantata

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Joan of Arc at the Stake sets a text by French Catholic poet Paul Claudel, and it's regarded by many as Honegger's masterpiece. The music has tremendous color and sweep, largely a function of its very original orchestration. There's a prominent part for the Ondes Martenot, an electronic instrument that will be familiar to anyone who has heard a good horror or science fiction movie score. The Christmas Cantata is worlds removed from the violence and tension of Joan, as befits the subject matter. It's another one of these really terrific Christmas pieces that gets lost in the annual flood of Messiahs and Nutcrackers. Here's a chance to redress the balance. --David Hurwitz
