Henri Duparc — L'invitation au voyage (Gérard Souzay)

Mon enfant, ma sœur, Songe à la douceur D’aller là-bas vivre ensemble ! Aimer à loisir, Aimer et mourir Au pays qui te ressemble ! Les soleils mouillés De ces ciels brouillés Pour mon esprit ont les charmes Si mystérieux De tes traîtres yeux, Brillant à travers leurs larmes.

Là, tout n’est qu’ordre et beauté, Luxe, calme et volupté.

Des meubles luisants, Polis par les ans, Décoreraient notre chambre ; Les plus rares fleurs Mêlant leurs odeurs Aux vagues senteurs de l’ambre, Les riches plafonds, Les miroirs profonds, La splendeur orientale, Tout y parlerait À l’âme en secret Sa douce langue natale.

Là, tout n’est qu’ordre et beauté, Luxe, calme et volupté.

Vois sur ces canaux Dormir ces vaisseaux Dont l’humeur est vagabonde ; C’est pour assouvir Ton moindre désir Qu’ils viennent du bout du monde. – Les soleils couchants Revêtent les champs, Les canaux, la ville entière, D’hyacinthe et d’or ; Le monde s’endort Dans une chaude lumière.

Là, tout n’est qu’ordre et beauté, Luxe, calme et volupté.

— Charles Baudelaire, L’invitation au voyage

Song composed by Henri Duparc, & sung by Gérard Souzay

[operaportugues]

canção La vie antérieure (Henri Duparc)

Canção francesa: vídeo. Benjamin Bernheim (Tenor), Carrie-Ann Matheson (Piano), em Meistersaal Berlin.

"A Vida anterior", composta em 1884, evoca uma memória onírica de uma vida passada, marcada por beleza, serenidade e espiritualidade. A canção é carregada de sensualidade e melancolia, capturando a dualidade entre a beleza sublime e a dor existencial.

Tradução para inglês

Traduções para vários idiomas

Letra em francês J’ai longtemps habité sous de vastes portiques Que les soleils marins teignaient de mille feux, Et que leurs grands piliers, droits et majestueux, Rendaient pareils, le soir, aux grottes basaltiques.

Les houles, en roulant les images des cieux, Mêlaient d’une façon solennelle et mystique Les tout-puissants accords de leur riche musique Aux couleurs du couchant reflété par mes yeux.

C’est là que j’ai vécu dans les voluptés calmes, Au milieu de l’azur, des vagues, des splendeurs Et des esclaves nus, tout imprégnés d’odeurs,

Qui me rafraîchissaient le front avec des palmes, Et dont l’unique soin était d’approfondir Le secret douloureux qui me faisait languir.

Tradução para português Por muito tempo habitei sob vastos pórticos Que os sóis marinhos tingiam de mil cores, E cujas altas colunas, retas e majestosas, Ao anoitecer pareciam grutas de basalto.

As ondas, ao refletirem as imagens dos céus, Misturavam de maneira solene e mística Os poderosos acordes de sua rica música Às cores do crepúsculo refletidas em meus olhos.

Foi ali que vivi em prazeres calmos, No meio do azul, das ondas, dos esplendores E dos escravos nus, impregnados de aromas,

Que abanavam minha fronte com folhas de palmeira, E cujo único cuidado era aprofundar O segredo doloroso que me fazia languir.

The New Faculty of Francois Dupont:

Since Marinette and her class left Francois, a lot has changed to the school. The Faculty, in particular, hasn't change much, but it still noticeable even when looked from afar.

Miss Tulippe Viola

Miss Viola is one of Francois's main teachers, and the Ultimate Class's homeroom teacher.

From the outside, she seems like a very energetic person. She also seems to be beaming with joy, and always has the craziest stories to share.

She carries a bright smile on her face, and it isn't hard to make her laugh.

However... she tends to be very passive-aggressive with her students. If one of them doesn't seem to understand what she is explaining, she will find polite ways of calling them dumb.

And if you try to ask her too much, she will snap at you.

She isn't as beloved as she thinks he is, most students barely think of her when they aren't in her class.

Although her opinion on the students can change in a matter of seconds (depending what said student does), she seems to have favourites and least favorites.

She seems to be harsher with Kyoko, Byakuya, Celeste and Makoto.

Meanwhile, she seems relatively chill with Henri. Although sometimes she gives quite... questionable pieces of advice to him.

Her classes are usually seen as boring, and no one pays much attention to her.

Maybe she hides more to her smiles and her tales...

Miss Mendeleeive

Mendeleeive still lectures on Dupont, and still is the main science teacher.

Time has made her a bit more strict and grumpy, but still isn't a bad teacher.

She can be very demanding on her students, but at least is fair towards all her students.

Similar to Principal Bustier, she also compares Henri to Marinette... although, it's very different from the usual.

Although she admits Henri is not a perfect student (ponctuality and all), she says that he seems way more dedicated and realistic than Marinette.

He isn't even her favourite student or anything, but, she recognizes her efforts, and can't understand why people keep putting him down in comparison to his mother.

She is one of the few people that doesn't bow down to Vanessa's demands, which usually leads to conflict.

Always confiscates Camille's cellphone before classes. "If you want to fill your mind with rotting gossipy subjects, you will do it out of my class, Miss Duparc!"

Principal Bustier:

Bustier had... a disastrous goverment of Paris and France eventually.

The solutions that she came up for the country's problems were very shallow and only led to more and more problems.

Still, the higher ups on Francois Dupont thought that having not only an old beloved teacher, but "sucessful" politician, as a principal would be a fantastic marketing.

Well... she is far from a good principal.

Now, instead of allowing Chloe to torment her classmates, she allows Vanessa (who is way worse) bully every kid in school.

She doesn't try to do anything with Camille's blog either, seeing it as "harmless teen gossip" (not caring for how much some of the involved students were actually affected by the rumors she spred).

And mostly... she is very disrespectful towards Henri's mental health in general. She believes he could solve his depression by smiling more, and that if he put enough effort, he could turn into the "Next Marinette" (she is one of the main responsibles for Henri's recent mental struggles).

She honestly thinks she is doing a great job, and she is as loved as a principal as she was as a teacher... which is far from the case, especially considering how a lot of the Ultimate Class only tolerates her.

i know you're working on thing (i've been waiting to see what you come up with) so here are my questions pertaining to what your working on/ going through right now: 8, 14, 21, and 30!

Howdy howdy friend! Thank you for the ask 🥰

I do have some things in the works and up my sleeve, I am just in a phase of 0 creativity (both in my writing and my work as a musician) but I’m hoping that I can find my groove soon and crank out some stories for everyone 👀

8. Most challenging character to write or draw?

That has to be Javier Peña, the love of my life. I have loved him for years yet I struggle to capture his voice/mannerisms. I think I make him nicer than he actually is?? And then when I read it back, I’m like who the fuck is this man???? Cause that ain’t Javi! I know he’s a sweet angel with his girlies and Chucho but i feel like I haven’t quite found the balance for him yet. I also think I love him too much so my perfectionist tendencies get in the way.

14. Something new you tried this year?

Tbh, writing was new for me. I haven’t done it in the better part of a decade and I stumbled into fanfiction again this fall when I was commuting a lot for work (I was tired of lugging books with me), and from there I slowly started to find the courage to put myself out there and share stories!

In terms of writing, I’ve been making a bigger effort to eliminate useless dialogue. I get so easily caught up in the “he said” “she murmured” blah blah blah, that I’m now trying to focus more on dialogue that furthers the plot and/or explains how the characters are feeling rather than just them chatting. I’m trying to challenge myself to find alternative ways to get the same sentiment across without the characters exchanging a bunch of dialogue as it’s way more interesting to read about what they’re thinking or feeling!

21. Something that made you emotional?

Oof. I’ve read a couple of fics this year that brought me to tears. I went through a really awful and kinda traumatic break up at the start of this year— so bad my therapist even cried when I told him about it, before venturing into one of the worst years of my life, so whenever I read stories of reassuring!Joel or soft!Javi or reassuring!Din, I get a little misty. I can’t remember the name of it (I’m so sorry to the gifted author!) but there was a Jackson!Joel fic I read this Fall that had me crying on the train. I also have ugly cried more than twice reading the series Touch (written by slimybeth69!!!). Something about the assurance gets me, and I think because Din is such a man of few words, that when he says he misses reader, he means it.

Whenever a character goes through hell and back and someone is still standing there with them (lol I’m getting misty just writing this) it chokes me up, especially if it’s a romantic interest like Joel or Javier.

In re-reading this response, it seems pathetic of me but it’s the truth. I spent so much of this year wishing someone would have gone through hell and back with me, instead of leaving me at the gates of hell alone.

Anyway, the tears have been healing and I am so appreciative of literature and art and the works people create on here. Thank you for letting me feel things again!

30. Advice to yourself (and maybe others) for the new year?

I try to give myself the same advice I’ve been giving myself in regard to singing— do it for yourself. Focus less on whether or not people like it, but rather on if it makes them feel things. Art is not to be enjoyed, it is meant to be evocative. Just a perk if it’s enjoyed! If there is something out there that you wish you could consume, but you aren’t finding it, create it.

Van Gogh thought all of his works were crap. Henri Duparc had imposter syndrome so terribly that he threw his entire body of work into a fire. The greats all struggle with it, it makes us normal! Even if it’s not your best, it may be exactly what someone needs to read or feel or take in. Fuck it & Publish it!

Also remember that this is supposed to be enjoyable— no one is going to die if you write or don’t, check in with yourself. If it is still an enjoyable, creative outlet, then keep going! If not, hit pause and breathe. Reevaluate when you’re ready.

Thank you so much for the ask and tag, Beth! These were so fun to answer 🥰

Virtuose du Hip Hop Ivoire, Bassa Zérehoué Diyilem alias DIDI B est le leader du célèbre groupe ivoirien Kiff no beat. C’est une force de la nature, une véritable inspiration musicale dont le style musical mêle le dirty south américain et le coupé décalé ivoirien. (Image) Né au village Ki yi (Abidjan), Bassa Diyilem y séjourne jusqu’à ses 10 ans. Il est l’union de deux talentueux artistes qui donnera la naissance de ce jeune prodige de la musique africaine. D’un père artiste (pianiste, comédien et arrangeur) Abou Bassa Bomou et d’une mère Pehoula Zéréhoué chorégraphe-danseuse tous deux transfuges du KIYI M’BOCK ; Bassa Zéréhoue Diyilem a.k.a DIDI.B, Mojaveli est un artiste née. Comme le dit l’adage « la pomme ne tombe jamais loin du pommier ». En 1995 seulement âgé de 3 ans, il fait sa première apparition sur scène via le clip death society du légendaire Meiway. Un clip qui a touché beaucoup de monde, dans lequel il interprétait le rôle d'un garçon qui découvrait le corps de son père, la mort dans l’âme. Meiway voit en lui un véritable prodige ; ainsi il l'a recontacté pour apparaître dans deux autres de ses clips « Ahissan » et « le dernier siècle ». Paul Madys le contacte dès 10 ans afin de faire de lui l’acteur principal de son vidéoclip « ARRETEZ ». Alors la porte du cinéma s'ouvrit devant lui. Il a été choisi pour jouer un rôle dans une série télévisée produite par l'UNICEF. En 2008, il a 13 ans il décroche le rôle principal du film « Les frères kadogo » de l’illustre réalisateur rwandais Joseph Muganga assisté de HENRI DUPARC. Le film obtient plusieurs prix et il est reçu par le président Laurent GBAGBO. La musique est sa passion la plus profonde, il a décidé de tout donner et de se lancer dans le genre Hip Hop. Son style si particulier, son "professionnalisme" en font le leader de Kiff No Beat, groupe qu'il forme en 2009 avec Black K, Eljay, Elow'n, Joochar. Il mène haut ce groupe qui se classe résolument parmi les meilleurs du moment avec quelques distinctions, notamment le prix de la meilleure équipe RAP obtenu en 2013. DIDI B s’est souvent essayé sur des projets solos, en 2018 il lance le single « Mojaveli » titre éponyme, un egotripe dans lequel il fait montrer de son talent de rappeur ; punchline, flow et musicalité sont de mise. En novembre 2019 surfant sur le succès de son groupe, il sort un autre single intitulé « ASSINIE ». Chanson qui porte le nom d’une ville balnéaire, une presqu’ile au sud d’Abidjan beaucoup pisée par les touristes et par la petite bourgeoisie ivoirienne. « Quand ivoirien a réussi, il chill à ASSINIE ». Cette chanson devient l’hymne des fêtes de fin d’année de toutes les capitales d’Afrique francophone. Il fait partie avec le Sénégalais Dopeboy DMG des deux premiers artistes à avoir signé sur 92i Africa, la branche africaine du label de rappeur français Booba fondé en 2021. En parallèle à sa carrière solo, l'artiste avait lancé son label dénommé Africa Mindset, pour offrir une lucarne d'expression aux artistes en herbe. Le rappeur ivoirien fait son premier concert live solo à Paris le 4 février 2023, précisément à l'Élysée Montmartre.Didi B https://savoirentreprendre.net/?p=4060&feed_id=7165

canção Extase (Henri Duparc)

Canção francesa: vídeo. Benjamin Bernheim (Tenor), Carrie-Ann Matheson (Piano), em Meistersaal Berlin.

Composta em 1874, é uma obra lírica e profundamente introspectiva, com um texto simples e carregado de emoção. A simplicidade das palavras, aliada à profundidade da música, evoca um estado de quietude transcendental e entrega emocional.

Letra em francês Sur un lys pâle mon cœur dort D’un sommeil doux comme la mort. Mort exquise, mort parfumée Du souffle de la bien-aimée.

Sur ton sein pâle mon cœur dort D’un sommeil doux comme la mort.

Tradução para português Sobre um lírio pálido, meu coração repousa Em um sono doce como a morte. Morte sublime, morte perfumada Pelo alento da amada.

Sobre teu seio pálido, meu coração repousa Em um sono doce como a morte.
