A Tenebrous Disc of Dark Matter...
Sébastien Melmoth | Hôtel d'Alsace, PARIS | 06/28/2008
(5 out of 5 stars)

".

Like those of Edgar Poe and Alban Berg, Florent Schmitt's muse was a succubus.



His ethos was dreadful and unhiemlich in the Austro-German late-Romantic vein of Expressionism.

Schmitt's exquisite Violin Sonata and Expressionistic piano pieces "Ombres--Shadows" were produced between 1917-20.



And while Schmitt's crepuscular oeuvre sometimes inflects Debussyan/Ravelian or Skryabinesque turns of phrase, Skryabin's morbid late Sonatas, Berg's morose Piano Sonata, and Schönberg's heartsick Violin Fantasy most quickly come to mind by association: dark stars in chaos.
