Summary of This Score
Francis Poulenc liked to emphasize that poetry and music go hand in hand. From his early years, he turned to melody and built a catalog of about 150 vocal pages, as varied as they are demanding, where the elegance of phrasing, prosodic precision, and harmonic color serve the text with rare accuracy. This volume offers a selection of his most famous melodies, presented either in their original key or in transposition, with new engravings for optimal readability. The original poems are included, along with an English translation, a valuable asset for singers and accompanists wishing to refine intention, diction, and comprehension of meaning. Part of the "Musique vocale française" collection, this work is aimed equally at students, teachers, and professional performers seeking a reference repertoire, ideal for building a program, preparing an audition, or enriching a recital.
