We can celebrate the fact that the alliance Lied / Mélodie continues strongly and arouses a growing interest with the public. However, we have to recognise that the form in which this discipline is presented has not changed in centuries.
Over and above refinement as regards technical and stylistic questions, participants can try out and adopt new forms in the presentation of recitals, more suited to today’s public. The course is also suitable as preparation for Lied/Mélodie competitions.
