Tableaux et fantaisies.
“La musique ne décrit jamais les choses. La musique ne fait qu’exister”, dixit Leonard Bernstein. C’est peut-être pour cette raison que Schumann décida de supprimer de sa Fantasie les titres évocateurs initialement prévus (“Ruine, Arc de triomphe, Constellation”) : la musique possède une existence autonome sans ceux-ci. Mais n’en va-t-il pas de même des Tableaux d’une exposition ? Moussorgski crée ici quelque chose de plus subtil et de plus ambivalent que ne pouvaient le suggérer les peintures de Hartmann. Outre la virtuosité éclatante qu’ils exigent, ce couplage inattendu proposé par Paul Lewis révèle les qualités purement musicales de ces deux chefs-d’œuvre du xixe siècle.
