Musician's or Publisher's Notes

 

Fauré’s Sicilienne, Op.78, was completed by the composer in 1898, salvaged from the incidental music begun in 1893 for an unproduced play, and ironically it became one of its composer’s best-known works after being orchestrated and inserted into the incidental music for an 1898 production of a different play, Pelléas et Mélisande.     Notes by Edward Lein
