Choix de mes Fleurs Cheries: Le Lis
Mauro Giuliani
The third movement from the Choix de mes Fleurs Cheries, ou Le Bouquet Emblematique by Mauro Giuliani (1781 -1829), one of the conversions to modern notation of a near manuscript from the Boie Collection. In the description of Le Myrte I tell more about this adventure.
Le Lis -the Bourbon White- is a part of the family coat of arms of many royal and noble families, one member of the family of lilies is even called Emperor’s Crown. Giuliani described the lily musically as a fanfare-like march with a middle section in scale passages.
