Sicilienne For Violin And Piano Op 78 By Faure (Schott)
Flowing with gentle elegance and pastel-like harmonic color, this enchanting miniature captures the refined charm of Gabriel Fauré at his most lyrical. Sicilienne, Op. 78 began as a commission for incidental stage music intended for Molière’s Le Bourgeois gentilhomme, though the larger theatrical project remained unfinished. Originally conceived with different instrumentation for cello and orchestra, the piece later became one of Fauré’s most beloved chamber works. Its lilting siciliano rhythm, inspired melodic lines, and rich yet transparent harmonies reflect the expressive warmth found in both his major chamber compositions and his most intimate miniatures. Published by Schott, this edition presents a timeless recital favorite filled with color, grace, and Romantic refinement.
Key Features:
- One of Fauré’s most famous and charming miniatures
- Originated as incidental music for Le Bourgeois gentilhomme
- Graceful siciliano rhythm with lyrical melody
