About

This delightfully programmed disc of music for flute and piano demonstrates the versatility of the instrument as well as the musicianship of the performers. It features works by Poulenc, Hahn, Ropartz, Dutilleux and Franck – all of whom were either French or lived in France.

Kenneth Smith has won and continues to win many admirers who follow the Philharmonia Orchestra on disc and on the concert platform throughout the world, his individual tone and superior quality of sound having developed under the guidance of such eminent musicians as Aurele Nicolet, James Galway and the almost legendary Marcel Moyse.

In 1983, after 10 years with the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra, Ken accepted the invitation to become principal flute with the Philharmonia Orchestra, which opened up an international career of performing and recording music at the highest level of the world over. He is now firmly established as one of Britain’s leading flute players featuring on countless recordings from the symphonic and operatic repertoire with the Philharmonia and other leading Symphony Orchestras.

Paul Rhodes has been described in the press as “an impeccable accompanist – a model of style and refinement, with a sensitivity that allows the soloist to shine whilst providing total musical support”. Paul read music at Edinburgh University where he studied composition with Kenneth Leighton. He continued his piano studies later with Marjorie Hazlehurst at the Birmingham Conservatoire and with Hamish Milne in London. Master-classes with Louis Kentner, Vlado Perlemuter and Mitsuko Uchida also had a decisive influence on his playing.
