About This Song
About "Manon : Massenet: Manon: En fermant les yeux (Rêve de des Grieux)" by Alain Vanzo
Alain Vanzo’s tenor floats through Massenet’s ‘En fermant les yeux’ with aching tenderness. The ‘Rêve de des Grieux’ is a reverie of love, each phrase suspended like a held breath. The orchestral accompaniment sighs beneath him, capturing the fragile hope of a dream that might vanish upon waking.
