Fazıl Say plays Le Coucou by Daquin (from Premier Livre de pièces de clavecin, Troisième Suite)

Written in 1735, Le Coucou by the French composer Louis-Claude Daquin imitates the sprightly call of the cuckoo bird, at its most vocal during the day. Listen to Fazıl Say’s recording for his Morning Piano collection: Morning – Evening by Fazıl Say presents solo-piano pieces handpicked by the pianist himself to capture the moods of these opposing times of day: from when life awakens in the morning to the closing of the night. On his selections for the morning, the pianist explains, “There have been mostly baroque and early classical works on the radio in the mornings since my childhood. I used to start the day with the beautiful melodies and rhythmic energy of baroque music. Therefore, I particularly wanted to have many music pieces from this period in the Morning Piano collection.“ #ClassicalMusic #Daquin __________ Warner Classics ► Website: Subscribe to our: ► YT- Channel: ► Newsletter Follow us on: ► Facebook: ► Instagram: ► Twitter: ► YouTube: Listen to us on: ► Spotify: ► Apple Music: ► Deezer Warner Classics is the home of classical music, featuring iconic high audio quality recordings from the greatest classical legends, opera stars and orchestras of the last century.
