ANDRE ASSELIN (violin)
FRANK LAFFITTE (pianoforte)
ANDRfi ASSELIN AND FRANK LAFFITTE Debussy's 'The Submerged Cathedral ' is one of his most popular and best known piano pieces. A Breton legend tells how the cathedral of the submerged city of Ys rises .out of the waves sometimes on a clear morning when the sea is calm and transparent. The bells are heard to chime, the priests to intone, until after a while the cathedral sinks again to its enchanted age-long sleep.
