Selected Songs chosen by Francois Le Roux-Exceptional singer Reynaldo Hahn (1875-1947) owes his early successes to the “songs for voice and piano” genre whose raison d’être he defines in his journal as follows: “To highlight a poem word for word but without uniformity; to emphasize its meaning without distorting it; to shine light upon one idea obscure another and present it all in vocal sung form; to produce a sharp precise sensation by touching a heartstring or evoking an image - all in a well-structured and tastefully written piece”. Enhanced by an audio version attached as a download card this anthology of songs should dispel a good manymisconceptions. This is no salon miniature: L’Heure exquise radiates an infinite tenderness exalted by the high vocal cadences of Ô Bien-Aimée! and C’est l’heure exquise which surely wrought tears from the author of the verses Verlaine. Tyndaris the jewel of Heures latines clears a crystal-clear space given over to the delights of slumber and of love. Like D’une prison and Cygnes these songs do more than wet the eyes: they grip the heart.
