Jodie Devos sings a dreamy mélodie early in her career

THE SONGBIRD: Belgian soprano Jodie Devos (1988 - 2024) studied at the Institut de Musique in Namur and then attained a Masters degree from the Royal Academy of Music in London (studying with Lillian Watson). She did well in several voice competitions and then joined the Paris Opera-Comique in 2014 appearing as Adele. She made her debut at La Monnaie in Brussels as Queen of the Night in 2018, a role she also sang in Caen, Dijon, Limoges, and Paris. Other roles included Ophelie, Gilda, Philine, Olympia, and Adina. Devos died of cancer on June 16, 2024 at the age of 35. This recording is from a Belgian radio concert on June 24, 2015 that was part of the Festival Musiq'3; Devos was 26 years old. THE MUSIC: Henri Duparc (1848–1933) is known for the 17 art songs he composed between 1868 to 1884, about one per year. One of his most popular songs is the evocative, dream-like "L'Invitation au voyage" composed in 1870 to a poem by Charles Baudelaire. A mental illness, diagnosed at the time as "neurasthenia," caused Duparc to abruptly cease composing at age 37, in 1885, though he lived for another 48 years.
