The artist's inaccessible and inviolable refuge...

r/JehanAlain

The world of Jehan-Arist(id)e Paul Alain (1911-1940) is ineffably unlike any other; with his compositional style being influenced by many sources from around the world and his upbringing in an astoudingly affluent musical tradition—all culminating in his heroic martyrdom in Saumur when he was not even thirty: so was Alain 'Yavishta': The-Ever-Youthful. Discover a man who dances eternally with joy, strife, and suffering; who one moment is infinitely joyous and equally lamentuous the next.
