A new aesthetic calls for new forms: such is the challenge the composer Hector Berlioz set for himself in the two works presented here.
In Les Nuits d’ete, Berlioz pioneered, well before Mahler and Ravel, a song cycle for voice and orchestra.
In Harold in Italy, scored for large orchestra and solo viola, he experimented with the symphonic genre.
These period-instrument performances by Les Siecles, led by Francois-Xavier Roth with violist Tabea Zimmermann, also feature Stephane Degout in the vocal cycle, heard here in the composer’s own version for baritone.
