Voix Moyenne Et Piano-Recueil. Par POULENC FRANCIS. Poulenc 's five songs, Poèmes De Ronsard were composed in 1925 during the post-war euphoria. The cycle is essential to aspiring, advanced vocalists of the French art song. Francis Poulenc (1899-1963) was a highly prolific composer, and remains popular to this day. Poèmes De Ronsard was composed towards the beginning of the composer's career, based on poems by prolific French poet, Pierre de Ronsard. Poèmes De Ronsard is made up of five songs which alternate between lively and slow tempos; 1) Attributes, 2) The Tomb, 3) Ballet, 4) Ionly have the Bones, and 5) On his page. As a song cycle with much variation, Poulenc 's Poèmes De Ronsard is an exciting addition to the Vocal repertoire./ Répertoire / Voix Moyenne et Piano

Par FAURE GABRIEL. Being such a prolific composer, particularly for Vocal and Piano works, Gabriel Fauré 's music is always addressed with high expectations. His Le Chanson D'Éve for Voice and Piano accompaniment is no exception. Fauré (1845-1924) began receiving high quality musical instruction from age 10 at the Niedermeyer School. He eventually became a piano pupil of Camille Saint-Saëns. Fauré 's career saw him succeed Théodore Dubois as organist at the Church of Madeleine in Paris and become professor of composition at the Paris Conservatoire, all the while composing sublime works. His song cycle Le ChansonD'Éve was composed between 1906 - 1910. As Fauré 's longest song cycle, Le Chanson D'Éve is made up of ten melodies based on poetry by Charles Van Lerberghe. With Fauré 's music remaining hugely popular to this day, Le Chanson D'Éve is a favourite for the vocal repertoire./ Répertoire / Voix Moyenne et Piano
