election result, I kick off my miniseries devoted to French singers and French music. Today\u2019s episode will be the first of two devoted to my favorite opera, Claude Debussy and Maurice Maeterlinck\u2019s <em>Pell\u00e9as et M\u00e9lisande<\/em>, which has enchanted, fascinated, and, yes, thrilled me since I was ten years old. If, like me, you adore this opera, then this episode is obviously for you. If you are among the many naysayers out there who find <em>Pell\u00e9as <\/em>to be boring, this episode is even <em>more<\/em> for you, because it puts the lie to the old saw that this masterpiece is static and motionless. Going back to near the dawn of recorded sound, I offer extant examples of the creators of the principal roles, Mary Garden, Hector Dufranne, Jean P\u00e9rier, Jeanne Gerville-R\u00e9ache, and F\u00e9lix Vieuille. I also feature performances by other figures associated with the opera in its first decades of performance: Maggie Teyte, Charles Panz\u00e9ra, Marthe Nespoulous, Germaine Cernay, Claire Croiza, Vanni-Marcoux, Jacques Jansen, Paul Cabanel, and Armand Nar\u00e7on, most of whom are featured on early recordings of the opera from the 1920s, and from its first complete recording led by Roger D\u00e9sormi\u00e8re in war-torn Paris in 1941. From the next generation of great Debussy interpreters, I also present Suzanne Danco, Camille Maurane, Fran\u00e7oise Og\u00e9as, G\u00e9rard Souzay, and Jean-Paul Jeannotte in various live performances led by the legendary conductor D\u00e9sir\u00e9-\u00c9mile Inghelbrecht, and from more recent decades, performances by Jos\u00e9 van Dam, Mich\u00e8le Command and the late Maria Ewing and Gabriel Bacquier led by Claudio Abbado and Serge Baudo. These artists all are keenly connected to both the words and drama, and wring out the passion, playfulness, and despair to be found in this work, which represents to me the perfect fusion of words, music and drama. Prepare to have your preconceptions challenged as I step into the world of <em>Pell\u00e9as<\/em>, that dramatic fusion of sunlight and shadow, which will continue next week with recorded performances by even more great singers and conductors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As promised, here is the libretto in French: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.opera-arias.com\/debussy\/pell\u00e9as-et-melisande\/libretto\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.opera-arias.com\/debussy\/pell\u00e9as-et-melisande\/libretto\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And in English translation: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.opera-arias.com\/debussy\/pell\u00e9as-et-melisande\/libretto\/english\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.opera-arias.com\/debussy\/pell\u00e9as-et-melisande\/libretto\/english\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:47px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-custom-size\" style=\"font-size:30px\"><strong> RECORDINGS HEARD IN THIS EPISODE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:55px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Unless otherwise noted, all selections are from <em>Pell\u00e9as et M\u00e9lisande<\/em> by Claude Debussy and Maurice Maeterlinck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"538\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/countermelodypodcast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Thill.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9839\" srcset=\"https:\/\/countermelodypodcast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Thill.jpg 538w, https:\/\/countermelodypodcast.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Thill-202x300.jpg 202w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 538px) 100vw, 538px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Claude Joseph Rouget de Lisle, orchestrated Pierre Dupont.
