Many thanks for your nice comments, Paul. And yes, there are several Watteau paintings in there, as well as some Fragonard, Boucher, Lancret, etc. One of the lines of Verlaine's poem originally said "Au calme clair de lune de Watteau". He crossed out the "de Watteau" and replaced it with "triste et beau".
I think 78 works well. Corinne, you have a beautiful voice, I am so glad you chose to upload this song and have been looking forward to it. The voice and piano balance in this excellent recording is always hard to get right, and you have. Nice video, I think I spotted a Wattaeu and possibly a Fragonard?
very beautiful!! I really like it :)
