Review by Erik Fatono

The album Mélodies by Claude Debussy featuring Elly Ameling, Michèle Command, Mady Mesplé, Frederica von Stade, Gérard Souzay, and Dalton Baldwin is a delightful collection of some of Debussy's most popular and beloved songs. The album features a diverse range of vocal styles and interpretations, all of which are executed with incredible precision and grace.

Elly Ameling's soprano voice is particularly captivating, and she delivers a stunning performance on tracks like "Nuit d'étoiles" and "Beau Soir." Michèle Command also impresses with her clear and expressive vocals on "Mandoline" and "Romance." Mady Mesplé's bright and airy voice is perfectly suited for the playful "Green" and "Le lilas."

Frederica von Stade's rich mezzo-soprano voice adds a new depth to the album with her performances on "La flûte de Pan" and "Chansons de Bilitis." Gérard Souzay's baritone voice is equally impressive on tracks like "Fêtes galantes" and "Trois ballades de François Villon." Finally, Dalton Baldwin's piano accompaniment is both sensitive and dynamic, providing the perfect backdrop for each vocalist.

About Claude Debussy Elly Ameling Michèle Command Mady Mesplé Frederica von Stade Gérard Souzay Dalton Baldwin

Born: August 22, 1862 (Saint-Germain-en-Laye, France). Died: March 25, 1918 (Paris, France). Claude Debussy was a French composer. He is sometimes seen as the first Impressionist composer, although he vigorously rejected the term. He was among the most influential composers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Debussy's music frees itself of the academicism of the late nineteenth century (in particular that of the Austro / German School) to offer new perspectives and dimensions to twentieth century music. Through the use of pentatonic scales, of the whole tone scale, he returns to the ambiguity of modal systems and accomplishes a revolution of traditional harmony, different from the Wagnerian revolution. Debussy's music frees itself from the tyranny of the bar, which with its periodic accents forces the rhythm to a pre-ordered repetitions; as a consequence of these metric-harmonic innovations the classical forms are abandoned.
