De Rutebeuf a Aragon et Prevert en passant par Villon, Baudelaire, Verlaine et Desnos, cette anthologie confirme que le vers francais a un potentiel de musicalite. Et ils sont nombreux, et pas des moindres (Faure, Duparc, Debussy, Poulenc, Kosma, Ferre, Brassens, Gainsbourg...), les compositeurs a avoir pose des images musicales et tisse des melodies et harmonies sur les poemes qui avaient touche leur sensibilite. Ainsi, la poesie doublee de la magie musicale, comme l'ecrivait Aragon, met a la disposition d'un lecteur une lecture d'oreille. Philippe LESAGE. From Rutebeuf to Aragon and Prevert, and including Villon, Baudelaire, Verlaine and Desnos, this anthology confirms the musical potential of French verse. Many composers, not the least of them being Faure, Duparc, Debussy, Poulenc, Kosma, Ferre, Brassens or Gainsbourg, added their own images in music by weaving melody and harmony into the poems that spoke to their sensibilities. In so doing, as Aragon himself wrote, it was in this way that poetry, doubled with the magic of music, made it possible for us all to read by ear.
