Francis Poulenc’s Journal de mes mélodies & what it means to guide interpretation

article image placeholderUploaded by @lmv
He's telling the truth about what he's writing and why he's writing it in a way that we almost never see from composers in the biographies, in the literature and the autobiographies. This is a really rare insight, and it's truly phenomenal. And so what this then makes me wonder as an interpretation is in what ways is this the vital information for a composer to communicate? Not it must be this tempo

Poulenc would like you to know that you need to read your texts attentively. He would also like you to know that his dog did something really cute.

Horrible day!

Horrible day. I love that it made me laugh so much. And your thoughts on that and why it's such a wonderful opening, made me smile so much. I had never heard of Pulink before. And I am so curious to discover and hear some of his work. So I would love any recommendations of where to begin potentially. And thank you so much again for sharing this. It was such a delight
