After exploring lesser-known works for light lyric tenor from the opéra-comique repertoire continues with the multi-award-winning So Romantique!  This new recording focuses on a unique genre: French mélodie with orchestra and features World Premiere Recordings. "Deeply attuned to the chamber dimension of music, I was naturally drawn to this form, which is rarely programmed today. Attention to tone colour is essential here, particularly in the interpretation of such brief pieces, an exercise at the very heart of my approach as a mélodiste," says tenor Cyrille Dubois. Designed by the researchers and editors of the Palazzetto Bru Zane, this program allows us to rediscover lost treasures of French heritage: refinement, the art of suggestion, delicacy, nobility of expression – everything here is so poetic!
