With this programme, Isserlis and Shih transport us to the world immortalized in Marcel Proust's A la recherche du temps perdu - the Parisian high society and its glittering salons. For the composers of the time, these provided a perfect platform for the introduction of new works, performed by the finest musicians in France for a sympathetic, educated and rich (!) audience. And for the music-loving Proust they offered countless opportunities to meet the composers that he so admired.
