	French Culture \| Music \| Faure/Shaham CD contest (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Violinist Gil Shaham fulfills a long-held dream of paying tribute to one of his favorite composers, Gabriel Fauré, with the release on Oct. 7, 2003, of a recording of the French master's poetic, highly expressive and expertly-crafted chamber music.
		Shaham views Gabriel Fauré (1845-1924) as the "unsung hero" of French music, a modest master whose works - particularly the chamber music - and personality are still greatly misunderstood and underappreciated despite the popularity of works like the Requiem.
		Shaham and Eguchi recently visited the studios of A & E's "Breakfast With the Arts" and taped an extensive feature focusing on the music of Fauré that will receive its television broadcast across the U.S. on Sunday, November 9.

		This is Gil Shaham's first recording on his own label playing what he wants, with who he wants, and when he wants according to an old issue of The Strad.
		The efforts of Shaham, Eguchi, and Smith are accurate and very acutely intellectualized in their approach to a composer who is too often discounted as the author of salon pastels.
		And where Shaham may have set out to pay tribute to Faur, he may simply be mirroring the shortsightedness of his former studio by denying his audience this incredibly significant utterance in the Faur oeuvre.
