Musical Journeys | PARIS: Chartres (Cathedral)

Chartres: Cathedral The Cathedral at Chartres rests on the site of a Roman temple and the present building dates largely from the thirteenth century. The West façade has the triple Royal Portal, doorways with statues and reliefs, and there are triple porticoes on the North and South, again ornamented with statuary. The medieval stained glass is particularly famous, mainly from the thirteenth century, although one window at least survives from an earlier period. The interior is otherwise remarkable for its height and its width, a very fine example of early Gothic architecture and one of the great buildings of Europe. Music | Fauré: Après un rêve One of the greatest French song composers, Fauré reflected in his songs the poignancy and nostalgia that permeated French culture in the closing years of the nineteenth century. His setting of a French translation of Italian verses in Après un rêve (After a dream), written in 1878, has since appeared in a wide variety of arrangements, through which it always retains its original qualities.
