Lili Boulanger was the sister of the famous music teacher Nadia Boulanger. She was a composer for the last 10 years of her tragically short life - she died at 25. Her music is generally beautiful delicately coloured and touching standing in the main line of French music exemplified by Faure albeit somewhat tinged with the influence of Debussy's Impressionism.These four Songs are settings of texts by de Calone and Maeterlinck among others with an English version by Jane May. The first song Dans l'immense tristesse speaks of a mother's grief on the death of a child. Attente (Expectation) is about the anticipation of love Reflets isgentle and reflective yet tinged with fear which breaks out towards the end whereas Le Retour (The Return) deals with the return of Ulysses to Ithaca.

'Sechs Gesänge? ('Six Songs?) based on poems by Maurice Maeterlinck were composed as piano songs in 1910 and 1913 and orchestrated in 1924. They show the art of song writing at its very best. The vocal part is characterised by sensitivity and simplicity, embedded in a web of sensuous instrumental voices. Alexander Zemlinsky added an introduction to the songs, which was not included in the piano version. Three sisters with golden crowns who want to die, blindfolded girls searching for their destiny and other female characters in the cycle conjure up paintings by Gustav Klimt. / Voix Et Piano
