We are celebrating the 250th anniversary of Beethoven's birth in 2020. The Musicatreize ensemble joins in this event by asking 12 composers including Benjamin Attahir, Sivan Eldar and Joan Magrané Figuera, to write twelve "Lettres à Élise" for choir and accordion.

The dense schedule of innovative creations on the screen inspired by our repertoires and our composers, echoing traditions, of silent cinema, cartoons, and television series, that have been rediscovered with fresh eyes (and ears) through the fascination of our time for the motion picture: this encourages us to invite you to discover, each month, from now on the most remarkable initiatives.
 

It was an anomaly within the dense discography of Pascal Dusapin's works: his opera, Passion, first performed at the Aix-en-Provence festival in 2008 and whose production by Sasha Waltz two seasons later enthralled audiences throughout Europe (Paris, Lille, Brussels, etc.), had not yet been the subject of a recording.

With the passing of Paul Méfano (born in 1937) last September, the historic ensemble 2e2m but also the entire musical creative community has lost one of its most active and generous representatives. A renowned and prolific composer (a product of the teachings of the Groupe des Six but also of post-war modernity), an exemplary and respected musical director, an acclaimed arranger (notably his Erwartung!), and an institution director with great leadership: Paul Méfano was all of this - and much more still. A teacher of course, to whom we owe the discovery and training of several generations of established composers, and, above all, a man praised by his peers, a man whose benevolent presence remains in our publisher memories, from one bank of the Seine to the other. 

To his family, both personal and musical, we send our message of solidarity and affection. His example leads the way.
