About Gabriel Fauré's Barcarolles

The Barcarolle, modelled on the folk songs sung by Venetian gondoliers, proved to be an inspirational genre for Fauré, who certainly wrote the most impressive collection of Barcarolles in the history of classical music.
The thirteen pieces were composed throughout his career and reflect Fauré’s development from luscious Romantic to forward-looking and slightly introverted Modernist.
