Abstract

During the interwar period, Paris was a musical center without parallel. Gaston Crunelle launched his career by playing in orchestras accompanying silent films in cinemas and performing at spas and casinos like Monte Carlo and Vichy. From 1924 to 1945, he was principal flutist of the Pasdeloup Orchestra and was often a soloist or singled out by critics. He also performed frequently for the leading chamber music societies in Paris. In 1933, he became principal flutist of the Opéra-Comique. Starting in 1924, he made numerous recordings as a solo, chamber, and orchestral flutist. His playing is marked by a stellar technique, alluring tone, and respect for the text.
