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.
