About This Song
About "Les nuits d'été, H. 81 (Transcr. Matheson for Tenor and Piano) : Berlioz: Les nuits d'été, H. 81 (Transcr. Matheson for Tenor and Piano): I. Villanelle" by Benjamin Bernheim
Berlioz’s 'Villanelle' becomes a sunlit dance for tenor and piano, its staccato rhythms like pebbles skipped across a pond. Bernheim’s voice hovers between pastoral ease and a wistful undercurrent—the lover’s joy shadowed by the knowledge that summer’s nights are fleeting.
