Berlioz.
Llio was
composed during Berlioz's
stay in Italy in 1831. In
April of that year he set
out from Rome, where he
held a scholarship as
winner of the Prix de
Rome, and travelled as
far as Nice on hearing
that his fiancee Camille
Moke had rejected him in
favour of another suitor.
He had intended to return
to Paris to exact
revenge, but then he
abandoned his plan and
instead spent three weeks
in Nice, returning in
stages to Rome. On this
return journey he
conceived the idea of a
semi-theatrical work that
combined music and
monologues to express the
idea of returning to life
after a profound
traumatic experience.
The composition
was finished in Rome in
Iune 1831. In the spring
of 1832, while staying
with his parents in
Dauphin, Berlioz copied
the orchestral and vocal
parts, and the work was
first performed in
conjunction with the
Symphonie fantastique at
the Paris Conservatoire
on 9 December 1832. It
was heard again three
weeks later and again on
3 May 1835.
While
designated as the second
part of the Episode in
the Life of an Artist,
Lelio can never- theless
be performed on its own,
without the Symphonie
fantastique to precede
it.
