Claire Delbos-Messiaen - L'âme en bourgeon (1937)

Описание: 00:00 I - Dors (Sleep) [a lovely and sweet lullaby]
01:31 II - Mon cœur revient à son printemps (My heart returns to its springtime) [light and playful]
03:30 III - Je suis là (I am there) [tender yet ominous mood created by prominent tritones]
06:03 IV - Te voilà hors de l'alvéole (Here you are, out of the honeycomb) [feelings of emptiness but also of happiness (as the child is born)]
09:02 V - Je savais que ce serait toi (I knew it would be you) [a brighter mood with free rhythms and quickly changing tempos]
10:39 VI - Maintenant, il est né (Now, he is born) [sorrowful yet sweet, reminiscences of Debussy's "Spleen"]
12:26 VII - Te voilà, mon petit amant (Here you are, my little lover) [nervous yet exotically playful mood from highly ornamented piano lines]
16:29 VIII - Ai-je pu t'appeler de l'ombre (Could I have called you from the shadows) [austere, ominous monodies in solo voice and solo piano]
