Berlioz Lenfance du Christ Part 3 Scene 2 Colin Davis
Scene 2: Inside the Ishmaelites house. Finally the father of a family of Ishmaelites (in other words, unbelievers) takes pity on them and invites them into his house.
Father of the family: Grand Dieu! (Almighty God!). The Ishmaelite orders his family to care for the travellers.
Father of the family: Sur vos traits fatigués (On your tired features). Learning that Joseph is a carpenter too, he invites him to join him at his work. Joseph and his family may stay in the house for as long as necessary.
Father of the family: Pour bien finir cette soirée (To end this evening). He has music played to soothe them.
Trio for two flutes and a harp. An instrumental interlude, one of the few pieces of chamber music Berlioz ever wrote. The use of the flutes and harps is inspired by Gounods opera Sapho and is meant to evoke the atmosphere of the ancient world.
Father of the family: Vous pleurez, jeune mère (You are weeping, young mother). The Ishmaelite urges Mary to go to sleep and worry no longer.
