Description
Hector Berlioz's Song Cycle (The Summer Nights) is based on poems by Theophile Gautier. Though their subjects have little direct connection, each song possesses the sultry, scented charm implied by Berlioz's title. The tenderly expressive qualities of these settings makes one wish that Berlioz had continued his dedication to French poetry. The English version of the text is given by Bernard Taylor.
