French gatefold original. Glossy, NM- vinyl. A masterclass in early 20th-century French pianism, this rare LP unites Paul Dukas’ profound Variations, Interlude et Finale with Maurice Emmanuel’s exotic and harmonically adventurous Sonatines. The legendary Yvonne Lefébure—student of Cortot and mentor to Messiaen—plays with crystalline articulation and expressive depth, illuminating both composers’ rich harmonic colors and rhythmic intricacies.

Beautifully recorded and performed with rare authority, this album bridges the French impressionist and modernist traditions. A quietly spectacular document of Lefébure’s artistry—poised, poetic, and timeless.
