Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France // Debussy's song cycle Ariettes oubliées of 1888 set 6 poems from Verlaine's Romances sans paroles, beginning with C'est l'extase and Il pleure dans mon coeur - penetratingly poetic images of love's ecstasy and rainlike tears of despair. They have been rearranged in 2012 by Robin Holloway, altering their order while adding a further 4 Debussy songs, binding the whole work together with brief orchestral links and a feverish epilogue, 'con moto agitato'.
