Description:
The Chants du Rhin (Songs of the Rhine) is a cycle of six dreamy miniatures based on poems by Joseph Méry and composed in 1865. The songs are grouped symmetrically around the central "La bohémienne," revealing the beautiful and free-spirited gypsy girl as the overall theme. Bizet would return to the gypsy theme one year later in La jolie fille de Perth, and most famously ten years later in the opera, Carmen.
