Summary of This Score
These Six Caprices directly reference the work of Federico Garcia Lorca: Seis caprichos from Poema del cante jondo, 1921 (Gallimard Editions for the French version). Conceived as a bridge between literature and musical interpretation, this score invites the instrumentalist to explore a palette of atmospheres, images, and poetic tensions, in the spirit of the "cante jondo" evoked by Lorca: a universe where expressiveness, harshness, and emotional depth take precedence over mere virtuosity.
For the performance of these pieces, Pierre Fardet advises reading the corresponding poem before each caprice. This approach provides a true guiding thread for the work: it helps clarify phrasing, choose tone colors, articulate contrasts, and build a coherent musical narrative. In practice, the prior reading of the text acts as a "setting": each caprice becomes a character miniature, with a clear intention and an imaginative world to convey, both for ongoing study and for the stage.
With a difficulty level situated at the end of the 2nd cycle / beginning of the 3rd cycle, this collection is perfectly suited for students wishing to advance their interpretation skills: managing dynamics, mastering agogics, understanding breathing, and maintaining rhythmic precision. The brevity of the format (9 pages) also encourages in-depth work: one can refine details, stabilize the reading, then develop a personal interpretation, caprice by caprice, relying on the evocative power of Lorca's text.
