Gounod - Avant de quitter ces lieux
guide vocal track
Charles Gounod’s “Avant de quitter ces lieux” from Faust is Valentin’s heartfelt prayer before leaving for war, entrusting his sister Marguerite to divine protection. This noble baritone aria unfolds in broad, hymn-like legato over a steady martial underpinning, with poised French diction and warm lines that rise to dignified climaxes. Ideal for auditions and recitals, this guide vocal offers clear entrances, phrasing cues, and natural breath points to support confident interpretation. This is the guide vocal demonstration track, recorded with a live studio orchestra.
