About This Song

About "Fleurs des landes, H. 124 : Berlioz: Fleurs des landes, H. 124: No. 1, Le matin, Romance, H. 125" by Anne Sofie Von Otter

Berlioz's 'Le matin' is a romance steeped in dew and distance, von Otter's voice floating like mist over a field. The morning it paints is not innocent but knowing—a sunrise observed by someone who has not slept. Piano and voice entwine in tender unease, beauty shadowed by the sense that dawn is also an ending.
