Vous n'aimez pas le vin,
L'amour vous épouvante,
Que voulez-vous donc que je chante?

--Anonymous, summer 1730
Twelve Baroque French drinking songs, originally for two voices, which I have arranged for mezzo-soprano with a single-line accompaniment (usually string or wind instrument).

This recital comprises songs written by French composers of the Baroque period (1600-1750) such as Bousset, Boismortier, Campra, Delagard, Desfontaines, and Sicard, as well as some anonymous composers. I had to find the songs amusing as well as challenging for both myself and my accompanist.

For specific information on this recital, please email me.
