From the 1940s and 1950s, the period of Le Merle noir, Messiaen was able to evolve and direct his work towards a relationship with nature and, through that, the spiritual. Composed in 1951 as a competition piece for the Paris Conservatoire, Le Merle noir is one of Messiaen's first pieces to make reference to birdsong, which would continue to inspire him throughout his career: \"I have always thought that birds were the great masters and that they had found everything: modes, neumes, rhythmic acuity, tone-colour melodies and even collective improvisation\" (Traité de rythme, de couleur et d'ornithologie, V, 1).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Alphonse Leduc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46038560604239,"sku":"AL30943","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/f16312f4f609f06a3bbb563f8832e757.jpg?v=1785244459"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.ficksmusic.com\/ja\/collections\/messiaen-le-merle-noir-the-blackbird-1952.oembed","provider":"Ficks Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
