Henri Duparc (1848-1933) – 17 songs (part 1)

Henri Duparc’s creative career lasted sixteen years and his most important contribution to music lies in his seventeen solo compositions. After the last one was composed in 1884, he didn’t write anything for a while, but he was able to work on orchestrations of some song accompaniments and on reworking earlier compositions. His choice of texts for his songs suggests an atmosphere of melancholy that ultimately seems to have triumphed in the final silence.

In two parts, you can listen to all the songs of Henri Duparc performed by tenor Peter Gijsbertsen, soprano Liesbeth Devos and pianist Jozef de Beenhouwer. You will also hear the works of Duparc’s contemporaries, who, like Duparc, set poems by Baudelaire to music.
