This edition belongs to “Musique vocale françaiseâ€, a series devoted to French vocal repertoire – both in original and transposed key – designed for students and teachers as well as professionals; it includes 35 songs for high voice, with original poems and English translations, that Camille Saint-Saëns composed throughout his entire career. The texts he chose for his music are proof of his excellent literary taste. It is not always easy to see a clear logic when looking at the entire corpus of the composer's melodies, coming to a total of around one-hundred and twenty works. Camille Saint-Saëns was one of the composers responsible for bringing nobility to French melody, thus paving the way for the generation, that of Gabriel Fauré and Henri Duparc, which would elevate it to its highest level.

Composed in 1913-1914, this collection of thirteen songs sets poems by Francis Jammes from "Tristesses" (1905) for high voice and piano. Lili Boulanger (1893-1918) directed that, "all of these melodies should be sung with the feeling of evoking a past that has remained full of freshness." Dedicated to Gabriel Fauré, like most of her small output, the work was first published posthumously in 1919, a year after the composer's tragically short life ended. Reprint edition. Songs included: 1. Elle était descendue au bas de la prairie, 2. Elle est gravement gaie, 3. Parfois, je suis triste, 4. Un poète disait, 5. Au pied de mon lit, 6. Si tout ceci n'est qu'un pauvre rêve, 7. Nous nous aimerons tant, 8. Vous m'avez regardé avec toute votre âme, 9. Les Lilas qui avaient fleuri, 10. Deux Ancolies, 11. Par ce que j'ai souffert, 12. Je garde une médaille d'elle, 13. Demain fera un an.
