Program Notes
Soprano, Piano
Eden Chouraki’s poignant French text, set to music, evokes a mother’s profound sorrow for her abandoned daughter. The lyrics express a complex blend of love, forgiveness, and heartbreak, creating a deeply intimate and emotional portrait.
Musically, this composition draws inspiration from the romantic post-modernism of composers like Francis Poulenc. The general style is characterized by a rich harmonic language, expressive melodies, and a delicate interplay between the soprano voice and the piano. The piano part serves as both a supportive and illuminating element, enhancing the emotional depth of the piece through various techniques such as arpeggios, broken chords, and chromaticism.
By embracing the tradition of French mélodie, this composition seeks to capture the essence of the genre while offering a fresh perspective. The intimate relationship between the voice and piano, coupled with the evocative nature of the lyrics, creates a deeply personal and moving musical experience.
