Very often, the piano part of Gabriel Fauré's melodies for voice and piano is rich in complementary voices, countermelodies and other elements in dialogue. An instrumental transcription allows to highlight this flexible polyphony, sometimes surprising, always expressive, transforming these short but concentrated works into true pieces of chamber music. For this transcription of the melody entitled "Clair de lune", subtitled "Menuet" and taken from the 2nd Collection of Fauré's melodies, the main song is entrusted to the cello; the clarinet, accompanied by the piano, preludes at length, charming and light chatter that it maintains, almost insistently, until the cello has fallen silent.
