Book Review: THE all-in-one French art song collection for sopranos and tenors
Summary: 5 Stars
One of my biggest problems with Amazon is that often you cannot see which specific songs and/or composers are featured in a collection. So, I take it upon myself to provide this information to you:
Hector Berlioz - Villanelle
Georges Bizet - Chanson d'avril; Guitare; Ouvre ton coeur
Emmanuel Chabrier - Les cigales; Villanelle des petits canards
Ernest Chausson - Hebe; Le charme; Le colibri; Le temps des lilas
Claude Debussy - Beau soir; Les cloches; Mandoline; Noel des enfants qui n'ont plus de maisons
Henri Duparc - Chanson triste; La vie anterieure; Lamento
Gabriel Faure - Apres un reve; Automne; Chanson d'amour; Clair de lune; Lydia; Mandoline; Notre amour
Cesar Frank - Nocturne
Charles Gounod - L'absent; O ma belle rebelle; Venise
Reynaldo Hahn - A Chloris; Offrande; Si mes vers avaient des ailes
Vincent d'Indy - Madrigal
Charles Koechlin - Si tu le veux
Franz Liszt - Oh! quand je dors
Johann-Paul Martini - Plasir d'amour
Jules Massenet - Nuit d'Espagne; Si tu veux, Mignonne
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart - Dans un bois solitaire
Emile Paladilhe - Psyche
Francis Poulenc - Le Bestiaire (song cycle): Le dromadaire; Le chevre du Thibet; La sauterelle; Le dauphin; L'ecrevisse; La carpe
Maurice Ravel - Sainte; Cinq melodies populares grecques (song cycle): Le reveil de la mariee; La-bas, vers l'eglise; Quel galant m'est comparable?; Chanson des cueilleuses de lentisques; Tout gai!
Albert Roussel - Le bachelier de Salamanque; Sarabande
Camille Saint-Saens - Aimons-nous; L'attente
Erik Satie - Je te veux; La statue de bronze
Deodat de Severac - Les hiboux; Philis
Pauline Viardot - Fleur dessechee
From the fairly simple (but beautiful) songs of Hahn (Si mes vers avaient des ailes) and Martini (Plasir d'amour), to the increasing difficulty of Liszt (Oh! quand je dors) and Paiadilhe (Psyche), the suprising and technically specific Mozart piece (Dans un bois solitaire), to the outright difficult pieces of Debussy (Mandoline) and the complete song cycles of Poulenc and Ravel, this book will allow for years of French art song repertoire to be learned and enjoyed.
Each piece is preceded by a paragraph or two on the origin of the song and it's author(s), as well as a word-by-word translation. These useful additions assist the serious voice student in the full understanding of their new repertoire.
Summary of French Song Anthology: The Vocal Library, High Voice
The largest, most comprehensive collection of French art songs ever published, with 60 songs by 24 composers. This wonderful anthology, with newly researched editions in clean new engravings, includes interesting notes about the composers, poets, facts about the composition and performance history for each song, and new line-by-line translations for study. Some songs are published in transpositions for the first time. This is the ideal collection for teachers to assign to voice students. Includes the complete Le Bestiaire (Poulenc) and Five Greek Songs (Ravel).Instruments & Performers Books
