Classical Music | Music for Quintet

Op. 205, 1939, based on Milhaud's contribution to the film Cavalcade d'amour by Raymond Bernard--the film was an anthology of three short love stories set in the 15th-century court of Count René I of Provence, "le bon roi René", and René's Cheminée ("fireplace") was the sunlight, where he liked to warm himself in the morning.

The movements are:

1. Cortège (procession)
2. Aubade (dawnsong)
3. Jongleurs (jugglers)
4. La maousinglade (saraband)
5. Joutes sur l'Arc (jousting on the River Arc)
6. Chasse à Valabre (hunting at Valabre)
7. Madrigal nocturne (nocturnal madrigal)

Meant to add, lovely performance!
