Faure's Pavane embodies the clarity balance and serenity of the Renaissance dance form as well as the subtle colour and shading of French music at the end of the 19th century. Written in 1887 the piece was originally scored for Cello and Orchestra the piece was later adapted to include miming dancing and an invisible Choir in 1891. The Pavane subsequently formed part of the Ancient Dances display at the paris Opera in 1895 and was also choreographed and performed by the Ballet Russes. Arranged for 2 part Treble Choir and Piano accompaniment by Doreen Rao.

Shortly after completing the orchestral work, Faure began work on a version for choir, which was actually premiered before the orchestral version.This new Barenreiter edition offers conductors and orchestras a reliable Urtext edition of the Pavane's original orchestral version which will surely enhance symphonic concert programmes everywhere.

Gabriel Fauré’s Pavane is one of his most popular compositions. What is less known, however, is that the premiere of this stylized dance in April 1888 was actually performed in this present version for mixed choir rather than in the now more familiar orchestral version or instrumental arrangements. The text, in the style of Verlaine, sketches the carefree society of the Belle Époque, in particular the various flirtations and dalliances of the dancers. Based on Fauré’s autograph score, this new Carus edition reflects the original (faster) tempo marking. In addition to the composer’s revised piano reduction, Carus is also publishing a modern version for choir and four hands (Carus 10.402/10). Score and part available separately - see item CA.1040200.
