 Chant royal - LoveToKnow 1911   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
CHANT ROYAL, one of the fixed forms of verse invented by the ingenuity of the poets of medieval France.
It has been conjectured that the chant royal is an extended ballade, or rather a ballade conceived upon a larger scale; but which form preceded the other appears to be uncertain.
Theodore de Banville defines the chant royal as essentially belonging to ages of faith, when its subjects could be either the exploits of a hero of royal race or the processional splendours of religion.

 Guide to Verse Forms - Ballade
The above ballade is in iambic tetrameter; iambic pentameter is at least as common, and in fact used to be regarded as obligatory.
The ballade is in fact not a single verse form, but a whole family of related forms, distant cousins to the ode family.
A 7-line ballade, or ballade royal, consists of four stanzas of rhyme royal, all using the same three rhymes, and with their final lines all identical, and no envoi i.e.

Chant Royal is a variant of the ballade form.
NB the capital E's mean that, as with the ballade, the same entire line is repeated at the end of each stanza as a refrain.
It's not obligatory (or even common) to write about royal subjects, of course - though it is traditional (as with the ballade) to address the envoi to "Prince".

 Charles d'Orleans, Fortunes Stabilnes: Introduction
Ballade 118 is taken from the second sequence of ballades and shows the lover still defying Fortune - an activity we (and the poet) know to be futile.
The ballade is a form borrowed from medieval French writers that was largely superseded in the early modern period by the sonnet (borrowed from Italian poetry).
Ballades 27 and 43 are examples of the French form of the lyric, which allows only three rhymes in the entire poem.

She was a pupil of Rodin and exhibited regularly at the Royal Academy, though in 1928 she was unable to enter so William promptly produced a painting, 'Waterloo Drum', of a corner of their own house in London and submitted it to ensure the family was represented.
In a letter of 1904 Wallace asks that the Royal College of Music jury give a chance to 'even the most bizarre and so-called eccentric compositions that are sent in', and with respect to controversies at the Leeds Festival cites his intention to 'march in the direction of the guns'!
Royal College of Music suites and an orchestral rhapsody; a bitingly satirical choral ballad, The Massacre of the MacPhersons, which makes a ridiculous combination of snippets from Wagner's 'Ring' and traditional Scottish themes; and a choral symphony, Koheleth, which awaits rediscovery and may be unfinished.

It is inevitable, perhaps, that where style and technique have to bear the heavy burden of unripe emotional maturity, there will also be discomfort and distortion.
The Chopin was disquieting in the first and fourth Ballades talent walked on a tightrope; and what we heard was idiosyncrasy and the heady excitement of discovery tottering on shaky foundation of understanding.

Sviatoslav Richter's London debut at Royal Festival Hall in 1961 was broadcast by the BBC, and is included here in its entirety, along with material from 1963 and 1967 broadcasts.
In the larger-scaled Chopin pieces Richter sectionalizes the music through outsized tempo modifications that either work (the Barcarolle's brooding middle section) or land way off the mark (the Third Ballade).
While we might prefer Richter's later, more straightforward versions of the Fourth Scherzo, his gently poised Mazurkas are aristocratic and stylish.
