Berlioz, Hector
1803-1869
(b La Cote-Saint-Andre, Isere, 11 Dec 1803; d Paris, 8 March 1869). French
Roméo et Juliette: Love Scene (Scène d'amour) <1839>
Specific information available for subscribers.
In the complete Roméo et Juliette, after 42 bars of instrumental introduction, a lengthy passage for 2 offstage male choruses ensues—a passage that is normally omitted for concert performance of this excerpt. Breitkopf omits the passage in question; Kalmus offers both versions, identifying the one without chorus as “concert version.”
