Book excerpt: "First published in 1970, The interpretation of French song has become the classic work on the art of the mélodie, indispensable to singers, accompanists and concert-goers alike. The author Pierre Bernac (1899-1979) was one of this century's most distinguished exponents of French song. His legendary duo with the composer Francis Poulenc lasted for 25 years, during which Poulenc composed over 90 songs specially for Bernac to sing. They toured together, performing works not only by Poulenc but by all the great composers of the French melodic. On his retirement from the concert platform, Bernac continued to teach for a further 20 years, giving masterclasses throughou Europe, Canada and the USA. In this book, Bernac brings all his personal experience to bear on the understanding and performance of French song. Among the eighteen composers covered are Berlioz, Gounod, Duparc, Chausson, Fauré, Debussy, Ravel, Satie and Poulenc. Texts of nearly 200 songs are given in French, with line-for-line translations by Winifred Radford, notes on pronunciation, and simple but detailed suggestions for performance and interpretation."--Page 4 de la couverture.

Book Synopsis Le Chant Intime by : François Le Roux
Download or read book Le Chant Intime written by François Le Roux and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There have been very few books written directly by prominent recitalists that provide audiences with an authoritative, inspired guide to the interpretation and appreciation of French melodie. In this translation of the groundbreaking Le Chant Intime, internationally renowned baritone FrancoisLe Roux, in conversation with journalist Romain Reynaldy, presents a master class on French art song, with a thorough analysis of 60 selected songs that deviate from the traditionally narrow repertoire of the melodie genre.Taking an approach that goes far beyond the typical limiting conventions, Le Roux and Raynaldy adhere to composer Francis Poulenc's principle that a song should always be "a love affair, not an arranged marriage." Neither theoretical nor purely academic, this guide instills in its readers a deepappreciation for the historical and artistic context of each piece by enriching each analysis with the full text of the lyrical poem and several musical examples, as well as fascinating details of historic premieres, concert halls, singers and poets. Paired with intensive and practical notes relatedto the nuances of melody and vocal delivery, each analysis provides an essential reference for performers and listeners alike.

The book contains major articles on Faure, Duparc, Debussy, Ravel, and Poulenc, as well as essays on Bizet, Chabrier, Gounod, Chausson, Hahn, and Satie, and important reassessments of such composers as Massenet, Koechlin, and Leguerney.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding French Verse: A Guide for Singers explains the formal structure of the French language and sets out the basics of French versification, using examples drawn from a wide range of well-known song settings. In clear and concise style, it explains the Alexandrine meter typically used in French-language poetry, how to distinguish different meters by counting syllables, how to identify stresses and rhyme in French verse, and ultimately, how to enhance the interpretation and enjoyment of the melodie . The book also offers valuable resources, including a brief history of French versification, detailed analysis of several poems, a glossary of technical terms, and suggestions for further reading. While other books help singers with French diction, or offer translations of French texts, no other book helps a singer understand the meaning behind what they are singing. Understanding French Verse is an essential tool for singers, accompanists, and other musicians who want to understand more about the French texts with which they are working.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gateway to French Mélodies leads us into a fragrant garden of poetry and music that is both passionate and refined. Each song brings to life one of the great themes of French art– love, nature, the purpose of life--with sensuous beauty, beguiling grace, and often with humor. Understanding what you sing is the basic concept of the Gateway series. Each lyric is translated, both word-by-word and in readable English. The singer can learn the song with confidence, as obscure points of phonetics, grammar and interpretation are made clear. The cultural context of each song is illuminated, along with its place in the life and works of the composer. Many of the marvelous songs found here been out of print for more than a century and a few are published here for the very first time. The songs include: *"Plaisir d’amour," the quintessential song of bittersweet love, edited from the composer’s original 1784 edition *Seven works by women composers, including two sisters who were divas of Romantic opera, Maria Malibran and Pauline Viardot *Works of French operatic masters such as Gounod, Saint-Saëns, Bizet, and Massenet *Six songs by Gabriel Fauré and four by Claude Debussy *Two duets from contrasting historical periods

Download or read book Art Song written by Carol Kimball and published by Hal Leonard Corporation. This book was released on 2013-05-01 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (Book). Art Song: Linking Poetry and Music is a follow-up to author Carol Kimball's bestselling Song: A Guide to Art Song Style and Literature . Rather than a general survey of art song literature, the new book clearly and insightfully defines the fundamental characteristics of art song, and the integral relationship between lyric poetry and its musical settings. Topics covered include poetry basics for singers, exercises for singers in working with poetry, insights into composers' musical settings of poetry, building recital programs, performance suggestions, and recommended literature for college and university classical voice majors. The three appendices address further aspects of poetry, guidelines for creating a recital program, and representative classical voice recitals of various descriptions. Art Song: Linking Poetry and Music is extremely useful as an "unofficial" text for college/university vocal literature classes, as an excellent resource for singers and voice teachers, and of interest to all those who are fascinated by the rich legacy of the art song genre.
