First published in 1970, The Interpretation of French Song has become a 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 the 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 mélodie. On his retirement from the concert platform, Bernac continued to teach for a further 20 years, giving masterclasses throughout 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. Text of nearly 200 songs are given in French with line-for-line translations by Winifred Radford, notes on pronounciation, and simple but detailed suggestions for performance and interpretation. |
