In 1935 French baritone Pierre Bernac formed a duo with the composer Francis Poulenc that became a legend. Here, Bernac passes on his personal understanding of the songs of Poulenc as well as a little of their experience in performing them.
"Un demi-siècle après la disparition de Francis Poulenc, sa musique n'a jamais été aussi présente, jouée, enregistrée et aimée du public. Dans son oeuvre, les mélodies tiennent une part très importante, et le chanteur Pierre Bernac se propose d'étudier ici leur interprétation. L'auteur et Francis Poulenc ont été longuement associés. Ils avaient formé ensemble un duo (chant et piano), qui a donné des centaines de récitals, en Europe et en Amérique, et pour lequel plus du tiers des cent cinquante mélodies de Poulenc ont été composées. Les conseils qu'il rassemble ici pour leur exécution se veulent fidèles aux désirs du compositeur.On trouvera également ici une biographie de Poulenc et l'esquisse d'un portrait, qui aideront le lecteur à découvrir la personnalité de l'un des plus grands musiciens du siècle."
