Par MASSENET JULES. Cendrillon (Cinderella), with a libretto by Henri Cain based on Perrault's fairytale, premiered in 1899 in Paris. Best known for composing over thirty operas, the composer, Jules Massenet (1842-1912) purposely did not attend the premiere, but received a telegram the following day from baritone Fugère recording its triumph. Incorporating the composer's sense of humour and wit, the use of recurrent motifs is subtle and often thought to be inspired by Richard Wagner. Cendrillon contains musical echoes of the 18th century, incorporating gallant music, the use of the Lute and Viola D'Amore and a series of Balletentrees. The Opera is in four acts with 19 characters and a chorus. The role of Prince Charming is a breeches role whilst the melody lines of the Fairy Godmother are characterised by trills and arpeggios. Massenet 's Cendrillon remains popular to this day and was notably performed at the Royal Opera House in 2011. / Opéra-opérette / Répertoire / Chant et Piano

The libretto for this work by playwright Henri Meilhac and journalist Philippe Gille is based on L'histoire du Chevalier des Grieux et de Manon Lescaut by Abbé Prévost. Retaining the novel's eighteenth-century setting Massenet's opera offers noisy crowd scenes passionate duets and tense melodramas which certainly pleased the Opera-Comique's patrons - it was an instant popular success. This is the Schirmer edition of the Vocal Score with an English version by George and Phyllis Mead.

Along with Piano music song is Reynaldo Hahn's (1874-1947) preferred genre: with his light Baritone voice the young prodigy conquered Parisian salons by singing the works of his favourite composers (Gounod Massenet Fauré) not to mention his own compositions which enchanted audiences. Though finely wrought these songs have a naturalness which continues to please as evidenced by the success of the first two volumes. For many this third volume will be a revelation since it assembles for the first time songs that were published separately in magazines. It also includes the Love without wings cycle (1904 based on melancholy poems by Mary Robinson) andthe series of songs performed by Yvonne Printemps in the film La Dame aux Camélias (1934) which were on everyone's lips at the time. Contents: Aimons-nous Une étoile Dans l’été Au pays musulman Love without wings (Ah! Could I clasp thee in mine arms The fallen oak I know you love me not) Oh! For the wings of a dove! Adieu J’ai caché dans la rose en pleurs Naguère au temps des églantines Chanson (Danse petite sirene) Le Marchand de marrons La Dame aux Camélias (Mon rêve était d’avoir C’est à Paris ! Au fil de l’eau) Vocalise-Étude (Souvenir de Constantinople).

Those interested in French music have often had reason to be grateful to Roger Nichols; his writings on Debussy Ravel Messiaen and Poulenc are indispensable to the music lover.Nichols now turns his attentions to the mélodie where it is his mission to encourage singers to explore beyond the well-trodden paths of French song. In these two anthologies he does not ignore masterpieces by composers of the stature of Fauré and Duparc but sets them alongside music - almost impossible to find elsewhere in print - by such under-estimated figures as Reber Viardot Massé and Paladilhe.Even the more celebrated songs are often not easilyfound in practical editions which makes this selection an ideal starting point for wider exploration. In each of these volumes the songs appear in the chronological order of their composer's birth but Nichols somehow contrives a line-up of music which seems delightfully arbitrary at the same time as carefully designed to enrich everyone's understanding of the mélodie. The books also contain a remarkable amount of scholarship lightly worn and pithily expressed.As well as complete translations of the songs there is a useful and concise introduction on singing in French together with an illuminating historical note and critical commentary; and Nichols gives full due to the poets who were of crucial importance in the development of the mélodie tradition.Complete with translations and guidance on pronunciationReber GuitareGounod Le soirGounod Le premier jour de maiViardot Les deux rosesViardot La mésangeFranck NocturneMassé SouvenirsLalo Chant BretonSaint-Saëns Chanson tristeBizet Vieille chanson Massenet Madrigal

pour chant et piano. Par SAINT-SAENS CAMILLE. Tout au long de sa carrière, Camille Saint-Saëns compose quelque cent cinquante mélodies. Peu de temps avant de sa mort en 1921, il fait ses adieux à la mélodie en nous livrant les Trois Vieilles Chansons. Avec les Cinq Poèmes de Ronsard, composés en 1921, ce recueil nous montre Saint-Saëns revenant à la poésie des XVe et XVIe siècles à laquelle Charles Gounod, Georges Bizet ou encore Jules Massenet avaient déjà puisé. / Date parution : 2022-01-14/ Répertoire / Chant et Piano
