Born in 1916, Henri Dutilleux is one of France’s leading composers, enjoying an international reputation for his beautifully crafted works. This is the first translation into English of a series of interviews between Dutilleux and the French writer and journalist Claude Glayman which took place in 1996. Dutilleux discusses aspects of his life including his early training at the Paris Conservatoire, the German occupation of France and the time that he spent in the United States. The interviews reveal much about his music and his approach to composition, as well as the influences on his musical style. Originally published by Actes Sud in 1997, this English edition is the work of translator Roger Nichols, one of the UK’s leading specialists on French music.
Roger Nichols has written and broadcast widely on French music. His translations of the correspondence of Berlioz and of Debussy have been published by Faber, and his translation of Jean-Michel Nectoux’s Gabriel Faure: les voix du clair-obscur was published by CUP in 1991.
