Charles Ives - Chanson de Florian

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/2000044
Ah! s'il est dans votre village
Un berger sensible et charmant
Qu'on chérisse au premier moment
Qu'on aime ensuite d'avantage
C'est mon ami, rendez le moi;
J'ai son amour, il a ma foi!

Si passant près de sa chaumière
Le pauvre en voyant son troupeau
Ose demander un agneau
Et qu'il obtienne encor la mère
C'est bien lui: rendez le moi;

Si par sa voix tendre, plaintive
Il charme l'écho de vos bois
Si les accents de son hautbois
Rendent la bergère pensive
C'est encor lui: rendez le moi
J'ai son amour, il a ma foi

Biography

edit bio
Arguably the first modernist composer, Charles Ives (1874-1954) was a solitary figure who composed in obscurity for most of his life. The son of a U.S. Army bandleader, Ives enjoyed a wildly successful career as an insurance executive. In his spare time, he composed music in a wide variety of genres that combined popular song, church hymns, military marches, and European art music in ways that used tone clusters, polytonality, and other techniques decades before they were adopted by European composers.
