About This Song
About "Lassus: Quatriesme livre des chansons: No. 1, Bonjour mon cœur" by The King's Singers
A chanson of greeting turns into a tender tug-of-war: the heart's 'bonjour' hovers between courtly polish and raw longing. The King's Singers shape Lassus's imitative lines like a lover's hesitant steps, each phrase a door half-opened. Beneath the elegant surface, a restless pulse suggests desire barely contained.
