This anthology of poems from the 1850s to the 1950s features some of what is widely acknowledged as some of the best France’s poetry. Verlaine, Rimbaud, Baudelaire, Duchamp, Cocteau, and others have touched succeeding generations with their unique verses. All these poets-symbolists, decadents, surrealists, modernists, and others-have their own personalities, but their works possess a certain musicality. On this record, Jacques-Henry Levesque conveys this musicality by mixing readings and melodies. The results enrich both genres.
