The Dolly Suite, Op. 56, is a collection of pieces for piano four-hands by Gabriel Fauré. It consists of short pieces written or revised between 1893 and 1896, to mark the birthdays and other events in the life of the daughter of the composer's mistress. An orchestral version of the suite was scored in 1906 by Henri Rabaud, and has, like the original piano duet version, received several recordings. The best-known section of the suite, the Berceuse, has been arranged for several combinations of instruments. In Britain it became famous as the play-out tune to Listen with Mother. The suite, consisting of six short pieces, each with its own title: Berceuse, Mi-a-ou, Le jardin de Dolly, Kitty-valse, Tendresse and Le pas espagnol. The complete suite takes about fifteen minutes to perform. Analysis{{Listen|filename=Berceuse by Gabriel Fauré op56 no1.ogg|title=Berceuse from Dolly|description=The Berceuse from Dolly by Gabriel Fauré.|pos=right}}Fauré wrote or revised the pieces between 1893 and 1896,[1] for Hélène Bardac (1892–1985), known to her family as Dolly (she was later Madame Gaston de Tinan). She was the young daughter of the singer Emma Bardac, with whom Fauré had a long-running affair.[2] He was in the practice of sending pieces of music, in manuscript, to mark Dolly's birthdays and other family occasions.[3] In a marked departure from his customary practice, Fauré gave each of the six movements a descriptive, sometimes whimsical, title. Ordinarily he disliked fanciful titles for musical pieces, and maintained that he would not use even such generic titles as "barcarolle" if his publishers did not insist on them. His son Philippe recalled, "he would far rather have given his Nocturnes, Impromptus, and even his Barcarolles the simple title Piano Piece no. so-and-so".[3]
Premiere and later versionsThe first performance was given by Alfred Cortot and Édouard Risler in 1898.[4] Fauré himself enjoyed taking part in performances of the suite, not only in public but en famille with the young children of his friends. The photograph opposite shows the composer playing the secondo part to the primo of the young Mlle Lombard, daughter of his host and hostess at Trevano, Lake Lugano in 1913.[4] Cortot arranged the work for solo piano in 1899, and in 1906 Henri Rabaud orchestrated the work for full symphony orchestra. This version received its first public performance conducted by Léon Jehin in Monte Carlo in December 1906,[4] and this was later used to accompany "an ingenious ballet" with a story by Louis Laloy at the Théâtre des Arts in Paris.[9] The Berceuse was the signature theme for the long-running BBC Home Service programme Listen with Mother.[10] It is performed in the film Bicentennial Man by Andrew and Little Miss.[11] Although it was written as a piano duet, there have been numerous arrangements of the Berceuse for other instruments and ensembles. Examples include versions for piano and glockenspiel by Evelyn Glennie and for two guitars recorded by Julian Bream and John Williams.[12] RecordingsRecordings of the suite in its original form for piano duet include those by Geneviève Joy and Jacqueline Bonneau (1955),[13] Robert and Gaby Casadesus (1962),[14]Kathryn Stott and Martin Roscoe (1995),[15]Pierre-Alain Volondat and Patrick Hooge (2000),[16] as well as Pascal and Ami Rogé.[17]Among recordings of the orchestral version are those by the Orchestre national de l'ORTF conducted by Sir Thomas Beecham (1959),[18] the Boston Symphony Orchestra conducted by Seiji Ozawa (1988),[19] and the BBC Philharmonic conducted by Yan Pascal Tortelier (1995).[20] Notes1. ^Nectoux, p. 61 2. ^1 Nectoux, p. 36 3. ^Nectoux, p. 48 4. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Nectoux, p. 62 5. ^Orledge, {{p.|95}} 6. ^Morrison, p. 13 7. ^1 Phillips, p. 82 8. ^1 Anderson, p. 4 9. ^Koechlin, Charles.
