It's not everyday that one has the feeling of discovering a voice, singer, and, less an artist. It is this gift earlier this year that gave us this young tenor of 26 years. Recital choice: Dichterlibe Schumann and rare Illuminations de Rimbaud, Op. 18 Britten.

The romantic poet Heinrich Heine was published in 1829 his collection Buch der Lieder ('The Book of Lieder', the 'songs' ), in which the bitter disappointment in love poeticizing imposed by a cousin who married another, resulting in the latter poem, the death of "me" poetic narrator of the book. Strangely, this In 1840, the year of his marriage finally obtained by court order with the virtuoso pianist Clara Wieck , after years of persecution by the father of the young woman that Robert Schumann composed the tragic "love of the poet , "which ends with the death of the lover, and the cycle Frauenliebe und-leben ('Love and the life of a woman '), which closes on death of the husband at both ends of these cycles, the mourning, the lover, the lover. Terrible entry into a marriage so fervently hoped.

It may therefore seem foolhardy for a young singer, embarking on a cycle of sixteen songs where the greatest tenors and baritones wanted to shine. Every poem, every song is a landscape of the soul, always different, which should immediately enter the public and impose the atmosphere. From the first song, brévissime and intense in his vocal range reduced "Im wunderschönen Monat Mai" without other effects, musical Barbeyrac felt the awakening of love, desire and Languish already marked an irrepressible yearning which restrains the elan vital, contained explosion unlike the bright spring around. The voice is smooth, bright treble, bass fed, without heaviness. His grades are varied, or airy piani velvety soft, always just in the expression. Without affectation, with a simplicity of youthful freshness, sensitive without sentimentality, we will share the various stations of this ordeal in love, from power by the grand spectacle of the Rhine ( "Im Rhein, im heiligen Strome ;) , distilling the grim melancholy funeral "Hör 'ich das Klingen Liedchen" , almost until the final funeral epitaph that is "Die alten, Bosen Lieder.

We can not forget that it is the work of a great piano player and the game entered attentive and of Françoise Larrat that halo and poetizes these mental landscapes, we enter this certainty with emotion.

Piano

different but no less present and pressing , always demanding for the pianist, extracts of Illuminations of Rimbaud beautifully put to music by Benjamin Britten in 1939. ; With a piano and often furious storm, the ten pieces, enigmatic, are unified by a style of great lyrical declamation seeking power in the voice, almost in curses. A phrase comes up: "I alone have the key to this savage parade." No one can imagine this young tenor poor boy was Rimbaud, he enters these texts already almost surreal, with a clear sense of drama. The diction is perfect and he has a sense of the word, phrasing and displays a beautiful legato in the long sentence:

"I stretched ropes from steeple to steeple, garlands from window to window, Golden chains from star to star, and I dance. "

As an encore, he gave air of Don Jose, "the flower that you threw to me," the daring pianissimo writing on acute "and was something of you" , which does not venture tenors, and then offering us yet "Kouda, Kouda ..." Lenski dramatic meditation before his fatal duel with Onegin of shocking way.

Stanislas Barbeyrac with great art has to sing the melodies as the opera, and opera, as a song.
