Juliette Hurel's 2013 album on Naïve explores pieces for flute and piano by Ludwig van Beethoven and Franz Schubert, evoking the period between Classicism and early Romanticism. Perhaps the subtlest work of the program is Beethoven's Flute Sonata in B flat major, WoO A4, written in 1790 and fashioned under the influence of Haydn. Its sunny disposition and light textures are periodically interrupted by unexpected key changes and sudden digressions into the minor, characteristics that anticipate Beethoven's later development and mark it as a transitional work. His Serenade for flute and piano, Op. 41, is an arrangement of the Serenade for flute, violin, and viola, Op. 25, and it has a similar, if sometimes deceptive, air of Classical simplicity, which is all the more apparent because of the brevity of the movements. Only Schubert's Variations on a Theme from Die schöne Müllerin is unequivocally Romantic, and its sudden changes of mood and key make it the most fascinating piece on the disc. Hurel and her accompanist Hélène Couvert play with grace and refinement, and their performances display expressive flexibility and technical control, particularly by balancing the poise and cheerfulness of the Beethoven pieces with the melancholy mood and volatility of Schubert's variations. Naïve's reproduction is clear and bright, with considerable presence.Review by Blair Sanderson, Allmusic.com
Flautist Juliette Hurel zooms in here on the point where classical and romantic blend and blur.
Works by the young Beethoven combine with Schubert’s “Trockne blumen” variations (loved by flute players everywhere) in a programme that looks forward and back. The Beethoven serenade reminds me of composers like Haydn, yes, but also of light music and even circus music from the 1800s. The first variation from Schubert’s piece has a lot in common with the virtuoso arias of Rossini, Donizetti and the young Verdi, while the second variation is only a degree removed from a Beethoven piano sonata.
Even if you don’t want to play the “what else does this sound like?” game, the music is as constantly appealing as you’d expect from these composers and performers. No, this Beethoven is not always recognizable as the genius of later years, though there are glimpses. However this is a constantly pleasing hour, and as Juliette Hurel has shown time and again on Naïve, she’s a wonderfully graceful flautist. Her playing can be stark, too, when it’s called for in the dark intro of the Schubert piece. Hélène Couvert has an awful lot of work to do at the (modern) piano, and does it very well. I feel like I’d enjoy a solo Schubert album from her. The rapport is unquestionable; these women have been playing together for two decades.Review by Brian Reinhart, MusicWeb International, Allmusic.com
