Jean-Michel Nectoux's important biography of Gabriel Faure is the
most comprehensive study yet of this central figure of fin de
siecle France. It traces the composer's life and the rich cultural
milieu in which he lived and worked: the world also of Saint-Saens,
Flaubert, Verlaine, Ravel, Debussy and Proust. A large part of the
book considers Faure's music, with particular emphasis on his
adjustment to the musical language of the twentieth century and the
formation of his late style. Works in all genres are discussed in
detail. The book is the fruit of over twenty years' research by
Nectoux, the foremost authority on Gabriel Faure. In the process of
writing this definitive study, he read more than 5000 previously
unpublished letters and unearthed more than 120 musical
manuscripts. The book includes several rare photographs from
Faure's lifetime and contains an extended chronology of the
composer's life, a complete chronological listing of all his own
works and a detailed bibliography.
