Marie Jaëll, une quête d'infini

“A very great artist and a profoundly creative personality in the realm of musical thought.”
(Le Ménestrel, February 13, 1925)

An acclaimed virtuoso on the European stage, Marie Jaëll was also a renowned composer in her own time. Alongside her monumental Piano Quartet, this album presents a selection of her chamber works in their world premiere recordings. Composed between 1875 and 1886, these pieces offer a window into the output of a unique artist, more concerned with the pursuit of an artistic ideal than with seeking recognition.
