About "Poulenc: Les chemins de l'amour, FP. 106" by Mischa Maisky
Poulenc's 'Les chemins de l'amour' is a waltz of longing, its melody a silk ribbon trailing through Parisian dusk. Maisky's cello sighs with cabaret melancholy, the piano offering a gentle, knowing pulse. It's romantic but restless—love's path winding toward an uncertain, bittersweet horizon.
