'To have written that, you must be a poet', Massenet told Reynaldo Hahn when he read through the score of 'L'�le du r�ve'. Composed when the young man was not yet eighteen years old, this 'curtain-raiser' already had the qualities of the great works of the period. It reveals the colouristic talents of Bizet, the passionate outbursts of Massenet and even the prosodic originality of the young Debussy.
