Le Ruban
Dénoué is one of the
most important pieces by
Reynaldo Hahn.
This set of twelve
waltzes for 2 pianos was
conceived as
entertainment for
Hahn’s friends and
has a strongmelodic
aspect. It is one of the
greatest pieces of work
composed by Hahn
in terms of harmony and,
written at the end of his
Piano writing period; it
is a good transition
toward his second period
that is more focused
oncomedies and operas.
These twelve
waltzes are: 1.
Décrets indolents
du hazard 2. Les
soirs d’Albi
3. Souvenir…
Avenir… 4.
Dans de l’amour et
du chagrin 5. Le
demi-sommeil
embaumé 6.
L’anneau perdu
7. Danse du doute
et de
l’espérance
8. La cage ouverte
9. Soir
d’orage 10.
Les baisers 11. Il
Sorriso 12. Le Seul
Amour
A poem
by Victor Hugo,
'Puisque j’ai mis
ma lèvre', built
on the theme of the 12th
waltz, Le Seul
Amour.

'Flee the
storms.' Reynaldo Hahn
(1874-1947) put this
motto of classical
artists at the heart of
his music for piano four
hands, preferring the
balance of proportions to
the roar of passions, the
eclecticism of good
taste, charm and
delicacy. Berceuses falls
within the French
tradition of children's
music such as illustrated
by Faure's Dolly and
Ravel's Ma mere lOye.
These seven pieces evoke
with refinement the
happiness of a cloudless
day, the effervescence
that reigns on Christmas
Eve, or the gentle
syncopated rocking of a
young Creole, Selfiana.
The Variations pueriles
sur une melodie de Carl
Reinecke manifest a free,
whimsical vein, whereas
the Trois preludes sur
des airs irlandais drink
at the pure sources of
folk music, borrowing
their thematic material
from the famous
collection Songs of Old
Ireland which Stanford
had brought out in 1882.
Published for the first
time from ahandwritten
score, the Variations sur
un theme de Charles
Levade end with a wild
quadrille that takes the
heroes of the celebration
to the nearest inn. The
Piece en forme daria et
Bergerie from 1896,
finely polished, takes up
with the ambiance of the
pastorale, popular in the
17th century.
