- Another day, another new previously unplayed composer on this channel! And what a sensitive and beautiful piece too, very french in style and intimate.
Paul Antonin Vidal (1863 - 1931) was a French composer, conductor and music teacher mainly active in Paris.
Paul Vidal was born in Toulouse, and studied at the conservatoires there and in Paris, under Jules Massenet at the latter. He won the Prix de Rome in 1883, one year before Claude Debussy. On 8 January 1886, in Rome, Vidal and Debussy performed Franz Liszt's Faust Symphony at two pianos for Liszt himself, an after-dinner performance that Liszt apparently slept through. The following day they played Emmanuel Chabrier's Trois valses romantiques for Liszt.
Vidal conducted at the Opéra National de Paris where he made his first appearance directing Gwendoline in 1894, and later conducted the first performance of Ariane and the Paris premieres of Roma by Massenet, and L'étranger by d’Indy. He co-founded the Concerts de l’Opera with Georges Marty. He was Music Director of the Opéra-Comique from 1914 to 1919, conducting revivals of Alceste, Don Juan (the French version of Mozart's Don Giovanni), Iphigénie en Tauride, L'irato, Le Rêve and Thérèse. He also conducted the premieres of several operas and ballets. He taught at the Conservatoire de Paris, where his students included composers Lili Boulanger, Marc Delmas, Jacques Ibert and Vladimir Fédorov.
His brother Joseph Bernard Vidal (1859-1924) was also a composer.
His compositions are virtually forgotten today: they include the operas Eros (1892), Guernica (1895) and La Burgonde (1898); ballets La Maladetta (1893) and Fête russe (1893, arr. - both choreographed by Joseph Hansen, Paris Opera); a cantata Ecce Sacerdos magnus; and incidental music to Théodore de Banville's Le Baiser (1888) and Catulle Mendès' La Reine Fiammette (1898). In collaboration with André Messager, he also orchestrated piano music of Frédéric Chopin into a Suite de danses (1913).
He is perhaps better known today through his keyboard harmony exercises, Recueil de basses et chants donnés which was a favorite teaching tool of his pupil, the legendary pedagogue Nadia Boulanger, and subsequently many of her students including Narcis Bonet who has republished a selection of these exercises under the title Paul Vidal, Nadia Boulanger: A Collection of Given Basses and Melodies".

Thank you! It is extremely important to listen this music
Liszt,(la valse mélancolique) fauré (sicilienne) , brahms (waltz op 39 no3), Rachmaninov (op 32 no 12) 2:42....The harmonies are so beautiful!
Nice playful piece! 🤩
Delicately passionate piece, beautiful!
Thank you for posting these often “introuvables” gems. Your contributions are appreciated.
Very delicate appeal with sound! 0:57 as if the harp is heard, 1:38 is a very tender touch. Dynamic shades - super!
Beautiful interpretation. ♪
Wow I never don't knowing it waltz thanks 💥🌹
Trop beau.
Je le chante.
Et puis je pleure.
Really nice little gem. I digged a bit but it looks like that only Chopin's orchestration from Vidal /Messager is available in CD (quite old recording btw). Thanks again
Charming little beauty!
Nice. Above all, and going off in a completely different direction, the opening and overall feel of this piece remind me very much of a piece of music called 'Open Heart Zoo' by English singer-songwriter Martin Grech.
Chopin's op 48 no 2
Beautiful composition & performance - but to my ear the sound of this particular plugin seems a bit too "bright".
thanks for the feedback
