'The celebrated L'Album des Six of 1920 is recognised as a landmark in 20th Century modern music.
Moreover the artful relationship between 'Les Six' and their mentors Erik Satie and Jean Cocteau forms an important cornerstone of the inter-war avant garde.
This 78 minute anthology of modern recordings also includes music composed by Satie and Les Six for spectacles staged by Cocteau between 1917 and 1920, as well as Arthur Honegger's futuristic Pacific 231, and music by Georges Auric for five Cocteau films made between 1930 and 1959.'
