Bonjour, je ne sais pas si vous êtes français, mais si vous habitez en région parisienne, ça pourrait s'envisager. Avec mon épouse, nous sommes tombés amoureux de la suite Dolly et nous essayons de l'apprendre avec notre petit niveau de 3 ans de piano en autodidactes.

When my twin sister where 4 years old we would listen on the radio to Listen With Mother and the Dolly suite was the music that ended the program. Such sweet memories even though I was only 4 years old. Unfortunately my dear twin sister has Altzimer and has no recollection of this 😢
So sad. I too have fond memories of this magical music for the same reason. My younger brother has Alzheimer's, so your post finds much sympathy from me.
Les commentaires sur l'oeuvre présentée sont toujours très intéressants, merci à Radio France. Je découvre cette jolie pièce musicale avec beaucoup de plaisir. L'orchestre et son chef exécute l'ensemble avec beaucoup de sensibilité. Bravo
Glad to see they managed to get Mr. Bean to play 1st flute.
😂
lol
정말 천재다 포레는….
ㅇㅈ.. ㅠㅜㅜㅜ

Thank you, it’s always interesting to hear the history behind a work of art.
Je cherche toujours quelqu'un avec qui jouer le duo original... Un jour. C'est une belle composition et un arrangement transcendant.
