Mourir de ne pas mourir by Thomas Oboe Lee Chamber Music - Digital Sheet Music
By Thomas Oboe LeeIt came as a surprise to me that Samuel Beckett, 1889-1989, wrote poems in French and he also translated a bunch of French poems into English. So I picked up his "Collected Poems in English and French" and there I discovered several lovely poems by Paul Éluard, 1895-1952. This led me down the rabbit hole of seeking out Éluard's poems, and there are tons of it.I was especially intrigued by the collection called "Mourir de ne pas mourir" - Dying of not dying!!! As you should know by now "death" is a favorite topic in my music. For my song cycle I have chosen eight poems from the collection:I. L'égalité des sexesII. L'amoureuseIII. L'habitudeIV. Dans la danseV. Le jeu de constructionVI. Giorgio de ChiricoVII. Dans le cylindre des tribulationsVIII. Sans rancune
