About "Fauré: Berceuse from Dolly Suite, Op. 56" by Christopher Parkening
Fauré's Berceuse from the Dolly Suite drifts like a music box wound too slow—Parkening lets the melody sway between sweetness and a faint, adult melancholy. The guitar rocks gently, a cradle in an empty nursery. Tenderness tinged with loss, beauty that knows it's fleeting.
