E-SCORE PDF VERSION
These five poems by Baudelaire are taken from Spleen et Idéal, the first section of his poetry collection The Flowers of Evil first published in 1857. This song cycle, specially written for the baritone Jérôme Boutillier, echoes my Deux mélodies saturniennes on poems by Verlaine, albeit with a more tangible gloominess and despair. The contours of the music follow natural speech patterns, and the primary concern is the intelligibility of the poetic text.
