Extractions: Holder of the Paris Conservatorys highest awards, staunchly allied to her friends Darius Milhaud and Arthur Honegger, she was called upon by Erik Satie and Jean Cocteau to be part of the "Group of Six" (along with Poulenc, Auric, and Durey). These young composers, with Cocteaus encouragement, rebelled against the impressionistic "fog" and the Wagnerian "pathos". Their inspration included popular and traditional musical forms. In Germaine Tailleferre one always finds a respect for musical tradition, in particular that of the 17th century masters, along with an instinctive use of polytonality. A friend of Stravinsky, Diaghilev, Ravel, Chaplin, Picasso, and a collaborator of the greatest writers of her time, in particular Claudel, Valéry, Ionesco, Soupault, Tardieu...Germaine Tailleferres optimistic music has captivated the most celebrated musicians: Ricardo Vinès, Marguerite Long, Arthur Rubinstein, Jacques Thibaud, Alfred Cortot, Lily Laskine, Nicanor Zabaleta... and prestigious conductors such as Pierre Monteux, Thomas Beecham, Léopold Stokowski, Serge Koussevitzky, Willem Mengelberg. She left behind her, at the end of a long creative life, some 400 works, piano and chamber music, symphonic works, ballets, operas, film music and melodies. She was an officier of the Legion of Honour, holder of the Grand Cross of the Order of Merit, the Music Prize of the Academy of Arts, the musical Grand Prix of the City of Paris.

Extractions: Germaine TAILLEFERRE Petit Livre de Harp de Madame Tardieu. It was her artistic connections, which by 1917 also included Picasso and Modigliani, however which lead to her initial success It was in the Montparnasse atelier of one of her painter friends where the initial concert of the "Nouveaux Jeunes" took place, which also included Francis Poulenc and Louis Durey on January 15, 1918, with Tailleferre's Jeux de Pleine Aire as well as her Sonatine for String Quartet, which was later to become the String Quartet (with the addition of a third movement). The publication of Jean Cocteau's manifest for a typically French Music Le Coq et L'Harlequin in 1918 paved the way for Henri Collet's articles in 1920 in the French journal Commedia. It was also Collet who choose the name Les Six , in direct reference to the Five Russians of the 19th century nationalist movement. These two articles, which appeared in January of 1920, lead to overnight fame for the famous group Des Six, which only officially participated in one project together, an album of Piano works. The six musicians remained close for the rest of their lives, however. The legend that Durey ended the Group Des Six with by refusing to participate in is not exactly true. The work was supposed to be written by Auric who did not have time to finish the commission in time. In order to help their friend, the work was parceled out to the other members of the Group who were available and Durey, who was not in Paris at the time, simply didn't take part. The Group Des Six existed in spirit up to Tailleferre's death in 1983, and even today, the children and friends of the various members continue to see each other.

Germaine Tailleferre Works Tailleferre's stage works include the 1921 collaboration with other members of Les Six in Cocteau’s "Les mariés de la Tour Eiffel". Other works for the theatre range from the 1923 opera Marchand des oiseaux (Bird-Seller) to the 1961 chamber opera Le maître (The Master), based on Ionesco. Examples of Tailleferre's chamber music are found in her two violin sonatas and violin sonatina, as well as in her Jeux de plein air (Games in the Open Air) for two pianos.

Le Coq et L'Harlequin Les Six La rumeur qui veut que Durey provoqua la fin du Groupe des Six en refusant de participer aux " Mariés de la Tour Eiffel " n'est pas exacte. L'oeuvre devait à l'origine être écrite par le seul Auric qui se trouvant pris par le temps ne pouvait achever cette commande. Il fit alors appel à ses amis qui devaient se partager le travail. Durey pour la seule raison qu'il n'était pas à Paris à ce moment ne participa pas au projet... La première Sonate pour violon de Tailleferre a été écrite pour Jacques Thibaud, le célèbre violoniste dont elle était l'amie. Elle fut créée à Paris en 1922 par Thibaud lui-même et Alfred Cortot L'année 1923 voit son ballet "Le Marchand d'Oiseaux" connaître le succès avec les Ballets Suédois. La Princesse de Polignac passa commande à Tailleferre d'un Concerto pour Piano dans le même style neo-classique que "Le Marchand d'Oiseaux" et qui fut créé avec succès par Alfred Cortot.

These composers worked and performed together in the years after World War I. During World War II, after the collapse of France, Tailleferre lived in the United States.
