c20 french guys = satiue, debussy, ravel, poulenc ... ususally pretty cool (poulenc a little patchy for me, mind)

Poulenc can be a bit patchy but the best bits of the Organ Concerto,Piano concerti,music from the ballet Les Biches,Harpsichord concerto are all worth hearing and deffo unsung.Sophisticated and brittle and very Parisian.

The film music of Georges Auric(Cocteau's Orphee etc)is also worth investigating...he also did the score to the classic Ealing comedy the Lavender Hill Mob...
