Info for Debussy: La Damoiselle élue, Le martyre de Saint Sébastien & Nocturnes

The Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France and Mikko Franck continue their collaboration with Alpha Classics and here invite the Maîtrise and Chœur de Radio France to join them in a Debussy programme. This recording couples La Damoiselle élue, a work described by the composer as a ‘little oratorio in a mystical and somewhat pagan vein’, the Nocturnes for orchestra, composed between 1897 and 1899, and the ’symphonic fragments’ from Le Martyre de saint Sébastien fashioned by André Caplet less than a year after the work’s first performance, and which ensured it would not be forgotten by posterity.
