In 1938 Poulenc wrote that "This is not the happy-go-lucky Poulenc who wrote the Concerto for two pianos, but a Poulenc en route to the cloister - a fifteenth century Poulenc, if you like." 
The Concerto follows a new development in the composer's style
that led to the composition of numerous sacred works and several secular works, distinct in their sense of gravity and deliberation. 
It is structured as a single continuous movement with the character of a fantasia, divided into seven distinct sections.
The Concerto was commissioned by and dedicated to Princess Edmond de Polignac.

The featured photo shows the fortress of Rocamadour in the Dordogne region, a place of inspiration for Poulenc's religious works.
