Fleurs - Francis Poulenc from Fiancailles pour rire - Soprano Emili Losier

I have put two videos together of the same song so people can see what the different is between being relaxed in practice and working with a teacher as opposed to being in the more stressful environment of a performance situation. It takes a lot of practice to be able to sing well on stage in front of an audience and i am getting better all the time. Mostly it depends on how well i know the song and feel comfortable with the song.

In these recordings i can hear things that i like in both and could not decide which i should post so i have pt them both.

Fleurs
promised flowers
flowers that you hold in your arms
flowers that were taken from the edges of the steps of a home.
who gave the flowers
that are riddles with sand from the sea
sand that was blown
flowers of love
your eyes are cinders
and in the chimney
is a heart that is tied up in complaints
with images of holyness

promised flowers
flowers held in your arms
you gave you these flowers of winter
sprinkled with the sand of the sea
