It is truly in his songs that Faure reveals the flower of his genius, wrote the composers former pupil Maurice Ravel. More than a hundred songs written over six decades made Faure perhaps the greatest master of the genre French melodie. The present collection takes us on a journey from Faures first song cycle, Poeme dun jour to his last, LHorizon chimerique, via the exultant La Bonne Chanson and the intensely concentrated Mirages. The songs have texts by French poets of Faures time; here we find poems of Charles Grandmougin, Baronne de Brimont, Paul Verlaine and Jean de La Ville de Mirmont. Mirages concludes Bettina Smiths project for LAWO Classics of recording all of Gabriel Faures cycles for voice and piano. It was preceded in this series by Fetes Galantes and Serres Chaudes, both together with pianist Einar Rottingen. Together they have also released Voices of Women with songs of Fartein Valen, Jostein Stalheim and Ketil Hvoslef, composers from Norways west coast.
