Abstract
Six Poemes Arabes is Louis Aubert's largest and most orchestral work for voice and piano. The poetry, taken from Franz Toussaint's Jardin des caresses is highly evocative, and frequently borders on the erotic. A young man has a dream that he is seeking his beloved, and throughout the cycle is enticed by visions of her. In the end his journey takes him across the desert to her tomb, where she has been all along.
