Orchestre De L'opera Normandie Rouen- Massenet: Songs With Orchestra Vol. 2 (CD)
If Massenet is best-known as the champion of French opera, his contribution to the genre of the melodie merits reassessment - as is demonstrated by this programme of exquisitely orchestrated songs, all of which have remained in manuscript form. The Expressions lyriques form the pinnacle of these experiments, blending speech and song. The cycle Chansons des bois d'Amaranthe is also notable for the originality of it's scoring: a quartet of singers in dialogue with an orchestra animated by a voluble piano part.
