Although it is an uncanny reflector of social change, classical music often seems to be restricted to what happens in between periods of political instability. From time to time music and song of war and revolution have been compiled, but France 1789, from the innovative Alpha label, is probably the first in attempting to depict the musical worlds of each of the two sides in a conflict. Subtitled "Revolt in the music of a sans-culotte [the lower-class revolutionary laborers who wore only ordinary long pants, not silk breeches] and of a royalist," the album presents the ordinary music of the streets for the two groups as the French Revolution took hold. One interesting thing is that the group Les Lunaisiens and its leaders Arnaud Marzorati and Jean-François Novelli dig up unusual pieces to represent both groups; the royalists' pieces are not grand operatic selections but intimate chamber works, many of them sacred. The sans-culottes and the royalists alternate roughly in pairs. Both are sung by the same performers, and the revolutionary songs are distinguished not only by their texts, but by the manner of singing and by the rougher-timbred instruments (such as the serpent) employed. There's no claim that the performances are historically derived from iconography or writings, but the sound is convincing and the overall depth of the attempt to imagine music as it existed on the streets and in the besieged rooms of the aristocracy is impressive. The best is saved for last: La Marseillaise, the eventual hymn of the revolution, is paired with a "Contre-Marseillaise" issued by a conservative Catholic abbott. In addition to its sheer listenability, this album is strongly recommended to anyone studying the culture of the Revolutionary era or attempting to create fictional or dramatic representations of it.
