Program Notes: The Ballade, as a musical form, takes its name from the poetic form of the 'ballade,' or 'ballad,' which implied a narrative, usually set in the past or some exotic “other” place. The Ballade does not tell a specific story, but does convey the antique flavor and narrative style characteristic of the genre.
