After the tenor Cyrille Dubois explored lesser-known works for ténor de grâce from the Opéra-Comique repertoire with the multi-award-winning album "So Romantique!" (jpc 11152208), which explored lesser-known works for ténor de grâce from the Opéra-Comique repertoire, in this new recording he focuses on a unique genre: the French mélodie with orchestra. "Being very interested in the chamber music dimension of music, I was naturally drawn to this form, which is rarely on the program today. Attention to timbre is crucial here, especially when interpreting such short pieces, an exercise that is central to my approach as a mélodiste," says Dubois. This program, put together by the researchers and editors of the Palazzetto Bru Zane, allows us to rediscover lost treasures of the French heritage: refinement, the art of suggestion, delicacy, expressiveness - everything here is so poetic!
