Par D'ADAMO DANIEL. Lips, your lips, based on texts by the composer, exploit vocal sounds produced inside the mouth to the exclusion of traditional singing. It is an authentic sound theater where the characters are the character traits of themezzo-soprano on stage and its duplication projected by the speakers. The principal subject of the text of this first piece of 'The Lips Cycle' is telling and listening, transmission and reception, the production of meaningthrough words and by the voice that pronounces and sings them./ Répertoire / Mezzo-Soprano et Electronique

The melodies of Maurice Ravel (1875-1937) span the entire chronology of his creative output, from his earliest song BALLADE DE LA REINE MORTE DAIMER (1893), written during his student years at the Paris Conservatory, to the cycle DON QUICHOTTE À DULCINEE (1932-33), his last compositions in any genre. In his songs, Ravel's text settings display a meticulous attention to detail. Ravel´s melodies are elegant and refined, classical in their phrase structure. In his treatment of rhythm, Ravel finds subtlety within traditional meters, and dance forms-minuet, waltz, folk dances (especially Spanish dances)-also shape the rhythm in many of his songs. / Voix Haute(s) Et Piano
