| Added by magataganm, 14 Oct 2012 André Ernest Modeste Grétry (1741 – 1813) was a composer from the Prince-Bishopric of Liège (present-day Belgium), who worked from 1767 onwards in France and took French nationality. He is most famous for his opéras comiques. "Zémire et Azro" (Zémire and Azor) is an opéra comique, described as a comédie-ballet mêlée de chants et de danses, in four acts by the Belgian composer André Grétry, The French text was by Jean François Marmontel based on La Belle et la bête (Beauty and the Beast) by Jeanne-Marie Le Prince de Beaumont, and Amour pour amour by P. C. Nivelle de La Chaussé. The opera includes the famous coloratura display piece La Fauvette in which the soprano imitates birdsong. This arrangement of the "Entrée des Genies" (meaning 'genius' in a protecting the spirit way -- Dutch:beschermgeest) features a Woodwind with Brass Harmonie (Quintet). Thank you to my friend Jenne Van Antwerpen for her critique and resourcefulness. Merci à mon ami Van Antwerpen Jenne pour sa critique et de la débrouillardise.
