frmusic1-5, Exercise 1: Les Six

Model answer:

The members were Georges Auric, Louis Durey, Arthur Honegger, Darius Milhaud, Francis Poulenc and Germaine Tailleferre. What they had in common: a taste for wit, clarity, the music hall, the circus and everyday sounds, and a dislike of grandeur; also admiration for Satie and the promotion of Cocteau. The label is better understood as shorthand because a critic grouped them together in 1920, they were not a school with one style, and they did not stay together for long.
