Je te l'ai dit (Marcel Corneloup/ Paul Eluard)
L'amour est dans la fleur (Marcel Corneloup/ Marcel Corneloup)
This score can be performed by almost every choir. Marcel Corneloup had a sense of poetry and always chose beautiful texts to go with a perfect music match. “Je te l’ai dit” (“I Said It To You”) is an extract from “L’amour, la poésie” published by Éditions Gallimard. It begins with female equal voices and ends with Tenor and Bass with “Toute caresse, toute confiance se survivent” (“Every touch, every trust will always survive”) the sentence giving all its meaning to the poem. “L’amour est dans la fleur” is a three-part canon.
