About This Item
MP3 Audio CD. Henri Murger?s 1851 selection of clever draughts Scènes de la vie de bohème formed the next romanticized picture of the bohemian artist: free, vibrant, animatedly immodest, dedicated to Art for the sake of it even though the artist might feel cold and hungry. Four youthful Parisian artists, Schaunard the composer, Marcel the painter, Rodolphe the poet, and Colline the philosopher, establish a colloquial Bohemian group devoted to Art and the pleasure of Life. Beautiful and untrustworthy young vixens join them in their sexual fantasies, very remarkably Mimi, Phémie, and Musette, while the artists do their greatest to outwit their creditors and satisfy their cravings on the path to artistic grandeur. Battling the corresponding coerces of Success and Society is their best contest, asking: Will they ever lose the joyous times of Bohemia? Louis-Henri Murger, also called as Henri Murger and Henry Murger was a French author and poet. He is mostly notable as the novelist of Scènes de la vie de bohème, from his own story as a distraughtly needy author residing in a Parisian attic, and joined a slack club of acquaintances who describe themselves the water drinkers, for they were too broke to buy liquor. In his work, he mixes character with bleakness, fun and blues. The novel is the reference for the plays La bohème (Puccini) and La bohème (Leoncavallo), and, at superior subtracts, the zarzuela Bohemios (Amadeu Vives), the theatrical Das Veilchen vom Montmartre (Kálmán) and the Broadway musical act Rent. He composed tunes and novels and fictional stories, the central being La Chanson de Musette, ?a tear,? states Gautier, "which has become a pearl of poetry". Henri was born in Paris. His father was a Savoyard migrant who was employed as a dressmaker and caretaker for an apartment building in the Rue Saint Georges. He did not have a chance to continue his studies.
