As the sensual centrepiece of an album of 20th century French vocal masterpieces, Renée Fleming makes her first-ever recording of Ravel’s ravishing Shéhérazade.
Complementing Shéhérazade is Olivier Messiaen’s collection of love songs to his young wife, the Poèmes pour Mi – a tour de force of voluptuous vocalism.
A trio of major works is completed by one written for Renée Fleming by the doyen of French composers, Henri Dutilleux – his dramatic Le Temps l’horloge.
The album is completed by two earlier songs by Dutilleux, specially-orchestrated for this album and recorded in the presence of the composer.
Composer: Maurice Ravel, Olivier Messiaen, Henri Dutilleux
Performer: Renée Fleming
Conductor: Alan Gilbert, Seiji Ozawa
