Henry Purcell Gérard Lesne Deller Saint Amant Lore 1594 1658 1659 1661 1684 1686 1695
Henry Purcell (1658/9-1695) "O solitude, my sweetest choice", Z. 406, published 1684/5. Note before beginning: The original score suppposed to be in C minor, whereas the only score I found is in B-flat minor and only two recordings I have (Deller and Lesne) are in F minor. Sorry you guys out there who claim to have absolute pitch. All I can suggest is, just close your eyes and try to enjoy it. Henry Purcell +••.••(...)), English Baroque composer. He has often been called England's finest native composer. Purcell incorporated Italian and French stylistic elements but devised a peculiarly English style of Baroque music. The text of the powerful "O solitude, my sweetest choice" is a translation of a poem by Antoine Girard de Saint-Amant +••.••(...)) , "La solitude". Thanslation is by Katherine Philips, known as "Orinda" as she called herself. It appeared in the fourth book of the anthology The Theater of Music in 1686. The ground bass was not new when Purcell began composing; in fact, it was somewhat old-fashioned. He may have used the device as often as he did because he found it challenging. Repeated bass patterns, especially if they are diatonic, limit the harmonic exploration of a piece, and Purcell succeeded in breaking through this barrier on many occasions, most successfully in O solitude. In other songs, such as "Now that the sun hath veiled his light" and "Music for a while", Purcell transposes the ground bass in order to modulate. More on Katherine Phillips and her poetry: (http•••) and on the original poem bt Saint-Amant with Phillips' translation: (http•••) Text: O solitude, my sweetest choice! Places devoted to the night, Remote from tumult and from noise, How ye my restless thoughts delight! O solitude, my sweetest choice! O heav'ns! what content is mine To see these trees, which have appear'd From the nativity of time, And which all ages have rever'd, To look today as fresh and green As when their beauties first were seen. O, how agreeable a sight These hanging mountains do appear, Which th' unhappy would invite To finish all their sorrows here, When their hard fate makes them endure Such woes as only death can cure. O, how I solitude adore! That element of noblest wit, Where I have learnt Apollo's lore, Without the pains to study it. For thy sake I in love am grown With what thy fancy does pursue; But when I think upon my own, I hate it for that reason too, Because it needs must hinder me From seeing and from serving thee. O solitude, O how I solitude adore!

Concert enregistré le 31 octobre 2020 au Festival de Royaumont. Téléchargez le programme complet : (http•••) / Paul-Antoine Bénos-Djian, contre-ténor Le Consort : Théotime Langlois de Swarte et Sophie de Bardonnèche, violons Louise Pierrard, viole de gambe Justin Taylor, clavecin / PROGRAMME Henry Purcell : "O solitude, my sweetest choice - Strike the viol - Suite pour clavecin en ré mineur - Here the deities approve" John Blow : "An ode of the Death of Mr Henry Purcell" Henry Purcell : "Music for a while" John Eccles : "The Mad Lover" / « Ô Solitude (...) / Que ces lieux consacrés à la nuit / Éloignés du monde et du bruit / Plaisent à mon inquiétude ! »... Les vers de O solitude, ce sommet de la musique baroque anglaise, sont en fait d’un Français, l’aventureux Marc-Antoine Girard de Saint-Amant, adroitement traduit par la poétesse Katherine Philips, mais ils correspondent bien au génie de celui qui les a mis en musique, l’incontournable Henry Purcell. L’auteur de Didon et Enée avait en effet un talent inouï pour tout transformer en mélodie mémorable. S’il n’a pas connu la solitude lui-même, alors qu’il surplombait la scène musicale londonienne de l’époque de Marie II, éclipsant tous ses contemporains, c’est qu’il était un homme de troupe, familier des théâtres, où il enchaînait les productions. Pour relire ses plus belles pages et parcourir celles de John Blow, dont Purcell a été l’élève, et de John Eccles, l’un des confrères qu’il croisait dans les coulisses, l’ensemble Le Consort fait à nouveau appel à une voix prometteuse, celle de Paul-Antoine Bénos, lauréat de Royaumont révélé en 2018 grâce à sa prestation dans le rôle-titre de Rinaldo de Haendel, sous la direction de Bertrand Cuiller. Clôturer le Festival par les savoureuses intuitions de Purcell, le remarquable sens des contrastes des quatre jeunes musiciens et la voix charnelle et profonde du contre-ténor a du sens : il n’est que justice que cette édition, qui a été préparée dans la solitude d’un confinement sanitaire, s’achève par une célébration collective de la beauté ! / Concert filmé grâce au soutien du Syndicat mixte Val d’Oise Numérique. / Pour ne rien rater, suivez Royaumont sur les réseaux sociaux : ️ Youtube : (http•••) ️ Site internet : (http•••) ️ Instagram : @royaumont ️ Facebook : (http•••) ️ Twitter : @royaumont - (http•••) ️ Abonnez-vous à notre newsletter : (http•••)
