Fauré's compositions, from salon miniatures such as his Élégie and Sicillienne, to his profound Sonatas Nos. 1 & 2, defy conventional categorisation. His harmonic sorcery, stretching beyond his contemporaries, unveils a language both contemporary and timeless. In these late masterpieces, themes from his opera Pénélope intertwine with his personal journey, from childhood improvisations to his search for tranquility amid the horrors of war.
