Understanding French Verse: A Guide for Singers explains the formal
structure of the French language and sets out the basics of French
versification, using examples drawn from a wide range of well-known
song settings. In clear and concise style, it explains the
Alexandrine meter typically used in French-language poetry, how to
distinguish different meters by counting syllables, how to identify
stresses and rhyme in French verse, and ultimately, how to enhance
the interpretation and enjoyment of the melodie . The book also
offers valuable resources, including a brief history of French
versification, detailed analysis of several poems, a glossary of
technical terms, and suggestions for further reading. While other
books help singers with French diction, or offer translations of
French texts, no other book helps a singer understand the meaning
behind what they are singing. Understanding French Verse is an
essential tool for singers, accompanists, and other musicians who
want to understand more about the French texts with which they are
working.
