Léo Ferré sings Aragon (CD)

Customer Review

Four albums dedicated to poets, "Leo sings Aragon" is the first I've heard. The first Leo too. The "angular terminal" of my love for Ferré, in short. We are always happy to find this cake, as it is crossed by grace. Ineffable grace, poetic and musical ...

Such a rigorous orchestration and harmonic constructions. An unforgettable experience anyway. When you listen to this album for the first time, passion invades us, impels us ... From Ferré, one then wants to know everything, discover, listen. And God knows that his career was one of the longest (more than forty) and most prolific (nearly forty albums, not to mention the tributes, posthumous concerts, etc ...). Anyway, I still have work to do. Ferre, I must not have a dozen. Have not finished my pilgrimage ... Last but not least, it is an opportunity to rediscover the beauty of the French language. Better, a true "poetic crusade", as has often repeated.

Released in 1961 by Barclay between the sublime and Paname The Forbidden Songs, Leo Chante Aragon consists of ten titles all as beautiful as each other. The first theme (poster red) is however the most rugged, most radical (with its chorus that we seem to come from the former USSR). It is a kind of revolt against propaganda, military and revolutionary, who would have us believe that oath and for freedom, the individual should sacrifice his life, to die for his country, at the sacrifice of the inessential, ie everything that is not this freedom ...

The rest is harmonically flawless, a hymn to peace, love and poetry (Rainer Maria Rilke is even mentioned). Aragon's words hit home, especially in our time, when everyone (or almost) thinks artist through the Star-ac or who knows what else ("we have not all the same cards Everyone is not Cézanne "). The beauty of the texts and harmonies mixes with overwhelming thoughts, including ephemeral love affairs (in "Is this how men live," Aragon and Ferré already carry a clear look at the contemporary world, heartbreak, moral misery etc. - "and kiss off follow" -...). Léo Chante Aragon perhaps with Léo Chante Baudelaire his most accessible work. Anyway, for me it is one of the finest and most essential. Not to be missed. PS. Small comment dedicated to Papi Mormès ...; o)
