The term, '''melodie''', refers to [[French]] songs of the 19th and 20th centuries, usually, but not always, for solo voice and [[piano]]. It is the French equivalent of the [[German]] “lied” or the [[English]] art-song. It is a product of the [[Romantic period (music)|Romantic]] era and most major French composers, from [[Hector Berlioz]] in the 1830s to [[Francis Poulenc]] in the mid 20th century, have contributed to the treasury of the form.

The most prodigious of the writers of ''melodies'' (and one of the most popular [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FCU7YyTtX4A]]) was [[Gabriel Faure]] who wrote well over 100 of them. One composer, [[Henri Duparc]], is known solely for his ''melodie'' compositions.
