Facsimile of works published in 1899 by Constant Pierre - Historical notes by Patrick BRASART and Didier REBUFFEL
The songs of the French Revolution are little known and especially seldom sung.
"La Marseillaise", of course. But which french citizen is capable of saying the text of three verses, even two? For "Le Chant du départ", it's even worse. There is still "La Carmagnole": but who goes beyond the first sentence?
Let's not talk about the songs that surrounded the plantations of the "Trees of Liberty"... These are historical references. It is curious to observe how much, at that time, ideas prevailed over the heritage.
This collection, with the historical reminders for each song (all texts in french), will revive this heritage.
We present these pieces in the version of Constant Pierre, published in 1899. These simple pages can be sung in unison with piano accompaniment, like songs. By linking them with the very well conceived texts of presentation of Patrick Brasart and Didier Rebuffel, one can realize a panoramic picture which says, in songs, what was the French Revolution.
Constant Pierre's catalog, which is an authority, lists more than two thousand songs of the revolutionary period. To retain only twelve of them is necessarily to commit injustices. Suffice it to say that the criterion that governed their choice was above all historical, whether they were songs that were among the most often taken up (1 - 2 - 3 - 8 - 10 - 12), or songs related to events or mentalities characteristic of the time (4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 9 - 11).
