Description:Jean Cras (1879-1932) was a remarkable man by anyone's measure. Twice a decorated hero of the Great War, this Rear-Admiral of the French Navy, scientist, inventor and moral philosopher was also a highly esteemed composer during his lifetime, enjoying, during the last decade of his life, the same stature and celebrity as Faur�, Debussy and Ravel. Since his death in 1932, his music was overlooked until 1980, when his last surviving daughter, Monique, released the first monograph of the composer for the centenary of her father's birth. This assured his renaissance.Cras' thirty-eight early songs extend from adolescence to his early twenties, and with this publication, performers and scholars are now able to trace his evolution as one of France's greatest composers of m�lodie from the post-Romantic and Impressionist eras.This collection both complements and completes the published repertoire of Cras' prodigious song cycles: El�gies, L'Offrande lyrique, Fontaines and Cinq Roba�yats de Omar Khayyam, and his individual songs, as analyzed in depth by Paul-Andr� Bemp�chat in his seminal biography, Jean Cras, Polymath of Music and Letters (Routledge, 2009). Analyses of these newly-published songs will be found in the second edition, released in 2021 (Peter Lang). Through the chronological presentation of Cras' youthful songs, we witness a remarkable evolution of both prosodic and harmonic ingenuity, demanding of the singer increasingly acute attention to enunciation and inflection; and for both performers, a heightened sense coloration and unfailing fidelity to the rhythm of language.***Jean Cras (1879-1932) �tait un homme remarquable aux yeux de tous. D�cor� h�ros de la Grande Guerre par deux fois, ce contre-amiral de la Marine fran�aise, scientifique, inventeur et philosophe moraliste �tait aussi un compositeur hautement estim� de son vivant dont le renom �tait comparable � celui de Faur�, Debussy ou Ravel... Depuis sa mort, la personne de Jean Cras, tout comme sa musique �taient quasiment tomb�s dans l'oubli.
