Paris, 1920. Whilst Stravinsky and
Debussy were busy changing the
course of musical history, a group of
Parisian composers were observing
as if from a pavement café, imitating
what they admired and
ridiculing what they didn’t.
They became known as Les
Six – their music infused with
satire, fashion, curiosity and
the newly discovered
exoticism of jazz. We sample
their stylish sounds here
alongside works by the
establishment figures they so
loved and mocked.
