About This Song
About "Harold en Italie, H. 68 : Berlioz: Harold en Italie, H. 68: III. Sérénade. Allegro assai – Allegretto" by Orchestre De L’Opéra National De Paris
Berlioz’s 'Sérénade' finds Harold’s viola wandering a moonlit Italian terrace, plucked strings like distant mandolins. The allegro assai bristles with suppressed passion—a nobleman’s restless pacing—before dissolving into an allegretto that feels like a whispered confession, the soloist’s tone a shadow caught between longing and restraint.
