Gabriel Fauré?s 13 Barcarolles composed over a period of almost four decades (1882 1921) are highly representative of his output for piano and are regarded as his most characteristic works. They reflect his breaking free from the Romantic idiom particularly that of Chopin and Mendelssohn developing an independent musical language in which he combined tradition and the emerging modernism.These important works are now made available in scholarly-critical Urtext editions based on the ?uvres complètes de Gabriel Fauré and reflect the latest state of research.

Par FAURE GABRIEL. Gabriel Faure's Barcarolle No. 1 In A Minor Op. 26 for Piano solo./ Répertoire / Piano

Es löscht das Meer die Sonne aus-C?est à Venise que naquirent les barcarolles chants des gondoliers au rythme toujours ternaire (6/8 9/8 ou 12/8) qui suggère par la répétition constante d'un même rythme de basse le balancement régulier des embarcations sur la lagune. La mélodie du chant Schifferlied (Chant du batelier) de Friedrich Silcher (1789-1860) dérive non pas d?une barcarolle vénitienne mais d?une barcarolle de Provence.Après avoir arrangé la barcarolle provençale Friedrich Silcher écrit un texte et publie le chant sous le titre Es löscht das Meer die Sonne aus (premier vers du texte) dans un recueil d?airs et de chants traditionnels.Schifferlied développe une ligne simple fluide et limpide à l?instar des mélodies viennoises. L?arrangement pour Orchestre d?Harmonie est fidèle à cette approche. Il peut être accompagné par un Chœur d?Hommes (TB - texte en langue allemande -Set vendu séparément - DHP 1094593-050).
