Performance Notes:

Fauré’s lovely work, “Sicilienne,” was originally composed in 1893 as incidental music for a comedic ballet, “Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme.” The production was cancelled, and the piece sat essentially unperformed for five years until the composer orchestrated it as incidental music for “Palléas et Melisande.” The piece is most known from a suite of music from 1909, culled from that body of music.
While the dynamic of the piece is generally soft, and even the two forte sections should be somewhat measured, the player should not feel unduly constrained to piano and pianissimo. The melody should be allowed to rise and fall as the pitch rises and falls, and the “feeling” of a soft dynamic is more important than strict adherence to it. The soloist becomes accompanist at a few points—most notably in the section at letters E and F, and even then, the warm cantabile aspect should be kept.
