complainte du pauvre jeune homme (piano & voice).

Hello everyone,

It's been a few months since I wrote anything. My last cycle on Laforgues poems had left me a little dry!

But this poet has not said his last word and continues to haunt me.

So here is a new piece, black, full of soot...

Note, you can activate the subtitle in English.

Good listening.

Hi @Krisp Papa Jean!

I always enjoying your composition and singing and this one is in no exception. I really love the color you use in the whole piece. The chromatic harmony is fascinating, the low register secco marcatos and stacatissimo from the piano in the first section, the more diatonic and flowing passage in 1:26 gives a really great contrast to the previous section. It's interesting in 0:58 when the lyrics is "Scales Old scales" there is a scale playing from the piano. The repetition of the Digadoden with the secco staccatos and low register notes (and later sweeter legatos) is very well managed. The ending is really nice as well, as I thought it would end in a false dream and serenity but finally it ends with what begins the piece. Thx very much for sharing!

Henry
