Wonderful collection

By Michael Tillman on October 5, 2007

Format: Audio CD

I am a huge fan of Poulenc, I own just about everything he's written that I can find, save some of the choral works. I even managed to get a recording of Mamelles de Tiresias off of Amazon.

I have quite a few discs of Poulenc's Melodies, probably 5 version of Trevail du Peintre alone. This is a wonderful set, a good variety of voice and performance. It takes a great deal to perform Poulenc well, it would be beyond the confines of purely technical ability - the vast spectrum of emotion is the river from which his musical voice flowed. That being said, I have not been dissappointed by any of the recordings here, and its so nice to have such a good recording of all the melodies.

All-But-Complete Poulenc Songs, Outstanding Performances

By Nicholas A. Deutsch on July 7, 2013

Format: Audio CD

By the end of 2013 - the 50th anniversary year of Francis Poulenc's death - lovers of the composer's songs should have no fewer than four "intégrales" to choose from, each spearheaded by a distinguished pianist: Dalton Baldwin (EMI), Pascal Rogé (Decca), Malcolm Martineau (Signum) and Graham Johnson (Hyperion). They vary in their idea of "completeness," their choice of voice types and their ordering of the songs.
These Decca recordings date from 1992, 1996 and 1998. The programming is odd, and suggests that initially there was no intention of making a comprehensive survey. Thus CD1 is divided between soprano Catherine Dubosc and baritone Gilles Cachemaille; soprano Felicity Lott and baritone François Le Roux each get one CD apiece (CD2 & CD3); and Cachemaille and Le Roux split CD4 (with mezzo-soprano Urzula Kryger dropping by for the Eight Polish Songs). Several paired songs are split up, which is unfortunate, and "Je nommerai ton front" is inexplicably omitted. On the other hand, unlike the pathbreaking EMI set, this one includes the posthumously published songs, as well as "Les Chemins de l'amour" and "Fancy." And the sequencing on each CD, jumping back and forth in time over the whole of Poulenc's career, is effective and carefully thought out.
The fact that three of the four major singers are Francophone, and the fourth, Felicity Lott, might as well be, is what sets this edition apart from the other three. Lott and Cachemaille, both artists blessed with beautiful voices, secure techniques, intelligence and refined taste, give excellent accounts of all the songs assigned to them. I find Le Roux uneven: there's no denying his commitment and vivid response to the poetry, but some of the interpretations come across as fussy or jumpy.Read more ›
