Cléop tre - Scène lyrique
for Soprano solo and orchestra
The cantata Cléop tre belongs to a group of six surviving compositions written by Hector Berlioz between 1826 and 1830 for the prestigious Prix de Romecompetition. This was administered by the music section of the Académie des Beaux-arts, one of the four Académies that constituted the Institut de France during the Bourbon restoration.
The text of the cantata Cléop tre,written for the competition by Pierre-Ange Vieillard, particularly fired Berlioz’s imagination. His manuscript makes it clear that he viewed the work as a continuous monologue rather than as a traditional cantata withdiscretesections of recitative and air.
