Pierre Brévignon
Episode 9
Friday, 10 November, 2023

In this ninth episode, author Pierre Brévignon reflects on his biography "Samuel Barber: Un nostalgique entre deux mondes," adding to his interview in the documentary film. Recorded during Pierre's visit to New York City while writing his first fiction novel, we learn about his later books including "Le Groupe des six: Une histoire des années folles," and then speculate about Samuel Barber's personality and place in history. Pierre's definitive and acclaimed 2011 French-language biography can be found at https://amzn.to/40wJco4 and other bookstores "between two worlds."Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/capricorn-conversations/donations
