Paul Verlaine's poetry has been used in musical settings by many composers from Faure to Stravinsky. For example, Green also set by Faure, Debussy and Hahn; Spleen also set by Faure and Debussy; and each of them captures the spirit of the poem differently. They might also provide an interesting study, but I decided not to discuss them here because it would be too long.

520 $a Paul Verlaine's poetry has been used in musical settings by many composers from Faure to Stravinsky. For example, Green also set by Faure, Debussy and Hahn; Spleen also set by Faure and Debussy; and each of them captures the spirit of the poem differently. They might also provide an interesting study, but I decided not to discuss them here because it would be too long.
520 $a The emotional range of readings of Verlaine revealed differently to everybody, especially to Faure, Debussy, and Hahn. Faure sees the world in a different way from other people; he sees the good in everybody; and he sees the sweetness in things; he captures the human natural condition that wants to be flirt, wants to be elegant, and wants to be happy. Therefore, he set his song very sweetly and straightforward. Also Faure loves to do the word-painting; he would do the specific word painting. On the contrary, Debussy captures the other. He set his ironically. In the Mandoline he even adds the nonsense syllables on to this poem to probably capture the spirit of fun, which makes a huge difference from Faure's. Debussy does not do word-painting, he paints the whole mood, whole scene not particularly each single word. Then, Hahn knows Faure and Debussy, what he is doing is coming in between. He is trying to make this lovely and sweet and fluid at the same time; he knows what's going on, and he does not want to be the Debussy, so Hahn set his Fetes galantes (Mandoline) exactly between Faure and Debussy. He interprets the beginning and the end in an ideal, artistic, wonderful and elegant way, which seems close to Faure's Mandoline. But in the middle part where the third stanza kicks in; Hahn seems to think the way they dressed, in such elegance, is all silly, even ridiculous. Therefore, the atmosphere that Hahn creates for the third stanza seems close to what Debussy does in his Mandoline. Occasionally Hahn does word-painting.
520 $a French poetry exhibits great delicacy of expression and nuance. Setting such texts to music requires extreme are, for the potential loss of meaning in the flow of melodic and harmonic motives, can happen with unfortunate results. All the careful workmanship of the composer may itself be lost, if the performer does not understand and follow every delicate manipulation.
