The Carus Classics series features outstanding CD productions from Carus' past library of recordings. The series has been designed exclusively by the well-known graphic artists Friedrich Forssman und Cornelia Feyll. The Philharmonia Chor Stuttgart under the direction of Helmut Wolf presents sacred vocal music from two highly gifted female composers: Formally, Fanny Hensel's Oratorio to words from the Bible is reminiscent of Bach and Handel, whereas it displays the clear tonal language of the early Romantic era. The two imposing psalms by Lili Boulanger are characterized by an impressive array of sound and by a moving intensity.

Composed in 1913-1914, this collection of thirteen songs sets poems by Francis Jammes from "Tristesses" (1905) for high voice and piano. Lili Boulanger (1893-1918) directed that, "all of these melodies should be sung with the feeling of evoking a past that has remained full of freshness." Dedicated to Gabriel Fauré, like most of her small output, the work was first published posthumously in 1919, a year after the composer's tragically short life ended. Reprint edition. Songs included: 1. Elle était descendue au bas de la prairie, 2. Elle est gravement gaie, 3. Parfois, je suis triste, 4. Un poète disait, 5. Au pied de mon lit, 6. Si tout ceci n'est qu'un pauvre rêve, 7. Nous nous aimerons tant, 8. Vous m'avez regardé avec toute votre âme, 9. Les Lilas qui avaient fleuri, 10. Deux Ancolies, 11. Par ce que j'ai souffert, 12. Je garde une médaille d'elle, 13. Demain fera un an.

ISBN 9790007187798. Language: French/English. Text: Delavigne, Casimir.
First critical edition. Together with Debussy, Ravel, and Dukas, Lili Boulanger was one of the most important representatives of impressionism. Despite her short life of just 24 years, she developed a distinctive personal style, and composed a huge variety of works including songs, piano music, operatic scenes, and choral music, all with great inventiveness. The Hymne au soleil (Hymn to the sun) for mixed choir, alto solo, and piano, was written in 1912 to a poem by Casimir Delavigne. In ecstatic layers of chords the sun is acclaimed; through its power it brings the colors of the earth to light anew. The edition contains both the original French text, with a singable English translation underlaid.

First critical edition. Together with Debussy, Ravel, and Dukas, Lili Boulanger was one of the most important representatives of impressionism. Despite her short life of just 24 years, she developed a distinctive personal style, and composed a wide variety of works including songs, piano music, operatic scenes, and choral music, all with huge inventiveness. In 1916, in the middle of the First World War, the composer learnt that she was ill and had only a short time to live. Her deep religiosity gave rise to works including a setting of Psaume XXIV (Psalm 24). In the version published here for mixed choir, tenor solo, and piano/ organ, this is a particularly powerful setting of the psalm and an impressive work for inclusion in an Advent church service. The edition contains both the original French text, with a singable English translation underlaid. Score available separately - see item CA.2110200.

Nadia Boulanger: Melodies, volume 2 (AL 30 752) A student of Gabriel Faure and Louis Verne at the Paris Conservatoire, Nadia Boulanger (1887-1979) owes her aura to an exceptional teaching career spanning nearly 75 years, during which she trained the most illustrious musicians, from Copland to Glass not to forget Bernstein or Gardiner. In the past few years, her creative work, long considered negligible, has finally been escaping from oblivion thanks to the untiring work of the Centre Nadia et Lili Boulanger, directed by Alexandra Laederich.
