Beau soir (1877/1878)
Claude Debussy (1862-1918)
arr. for saxophone and harp by Andrew Lammly

~"When the rivers are rosy in the setting sun,
And a warm shiver runs over the wheat fields,
Advice to be happy seems to rise up from things
And climb toward the troubled heart.

Advice to taste the charm of being in the world
While one is young and the evening is beautiful,
For we are going away, as this stream goes away:
The stream to the sea, we to the grave."~

Debussy set this art song to the text of French novelist Paul Bourget's poem of the same title. The composer was only 15 or 16 when he wrote this hauntingly beautiful, reflective, and atmospheric musical setting for voice and piano. It has since become one of Debussy's most famous songs, having been arranged for a variety of instruments.
