Emmanuel Pahud

The long-forgotten Swiss composer Joachim Raff and Liszt assistant is currently experiencing a remarkable renaissance – and the flutist and focus artist Emmanuel Pahud is now giving it an additional prominent boost. Raff's Sinfonietta was composed in the spring of 1873, and it does indeed sound like spring: thanks to the pastoral key of F major, but above all thanks to the idyllic freshness it exudes. Raff, who grew up in Lachen as the son of a teacher, was a self-taught composer who was as gifted as he was self-confident; the fact that his music sounds like many things, except for his patron Franz Liszt, says something about the independence with which he was able to assert himself in the musical life of the time.
