Zusammenfassung:Néron examines Francis Poulenc's settings of the verse of French socialite and author Louise de Vilmorin. In the period 1930-1960, Vilmorin maintained a position at the center of French avant-garde artistic life, despite being forced to move away during her two marriages. Although a few other composers wrote music to Vilmorin's words, Poulenc's are the only ones still an active part of the repertoire.
