Description
Jacques Ibert (1890-1962), a graduate of the Paris Conservatoire, was director of the French Academy in Rome from 1937 to 1960. During World War I, Ibert was an officer in the French navy. His experiences traveling the Mediterranean as a naval officer were reflected in one of his best-known orchestral works, Escales (Ports of Call). Ibert was generally "modern" but non-doctrinaire in his approach to composition. Concertino da camera was composed for Sigurd Rascher, who played the first performance in 1935.
