Faust (Gounod)

Opera with a Prologue and four Acts (First version) / Opera in five Acts (Second version) Dialogue versions. Par GOUNOD CHARLES. Charles Gounod’s “Faust” secured its international recognition in the version as an entirely sung opera, which from thenceforth has largely obscured the fact that the work was originally composed with spoken dialogues. The early versions staged prior to the 1869 performance at the Paris Opéra containing substantial unknown material and with dialogues and melodramas are the subject of this new edition. (The third version “version opera” was published in a separate edition BA 8713 in 2016.) Even as the rehearsals were taking place at the Théâtre-Lyrique in 1858, during the first series of performances at the theatre in 1859, furthermore as the 1862 revival was approaching and during the performances on the smaller stage at the Place du Châtelet, there were constant changes and revisions. It is, thus, impossible to identify manifestly definitive versions. Nevertheless, by drawing on the entire source material now at hand (including fascinating material only recently discovered) and on the whole gamut of aspects communicated by the reception, Paul Prévost systematically presents us with a score laid out in two main versions in whose chronology constancy and change become transparent. With all the musical changes having been documented, the result is a practicable score for performances which reveals a still far too unknown “Faust” – a “Faust” that is rooted in the tradition of the opéra comique. Quite a few musical numbers are published as a score for the first time in this edition: the trio for Faust, Wagner and Siebel “À l’étude ô mon maître”, the duet of Valentin and Marguerite “Adieu, mon bon frère!”, Méphistophélès’ air “Maître Scarabée”, Siebel’s romance “Versez vos chagrins dans mon âme!”, Valentin’s air with chorus “Chaque jour, nouvelle affaire”, the chorus of witches “Un deux et trois”, and also seven melodramas whose missing or incomplete orchestration has been written for our edition. It was only recently that the long-lost second part of Faust’s original cavatina “Salut! demeure chaste et pure” was unearthed. Only in details of orchestration do other numbers differ from the well-known pieces./ Répertoire / Opéra

Opera in five acts Version with recitatives. Par GOUNOD CHARLES. Charles Gounod’s international renown is based on the success of his opera „Faust“ after Goethe’s drama: The aging Faust makes a pact with the devil. He sells his soul to Mephistopheles and in return gets back his youth – and he experiences new happiness in love when he meets the young Marguerite. The vocal score to Gounod’s masterpiece (completely sung version) assembles many popular numbers such as Marguerite’s “Jewel Aria” and the “Lied of the King in Thule” as well as Mephistopheles’s “Rondo of the Golden Calf” and Faust’s Cavatina “Salut ! demeure chaste et pure”./ Répertoire / Chant et Piano

Par GOUNOD CHARLES. The modal character of this piece, with some unexpected harmonic moments, underscores the sentiments of the beginning of Holy Week. Most of the choral writing is two part (ST/AB), breaking into four parts occasionally. Organ writing has nice independent moments, including the use of a solo reed stop, but also supports the choir./ Répertoire / Piano

from 'Faust'. Par GOUNOD CHARLES. L’histoire de Faust, qui vend son âme au diable en échange du savoir et du pouvoir, a toujours été une source d’inspiration pour de nombreux auteurs, poètes, régisseurs et compositeurs. Parmi ces artistes est le compositeur français Charles Gounod, dont l’opéra Faust fut interprété pour la première fois en 1859. Ce Choeur des Soldats ( Soldiers’ Chorus ) ravissant est une des mélodies les plus connues de l’opéra. Sa simplicité et beauté musicales convient à n’importe quelprogramme de concert qui nécessite un arrangement classique célèbre. / Niveau : 3 / Classique / Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie
