Ravel's Shéhérazade (1903) and Messiaen's Poèmes pour Mi (1936) are followed by two sets of songs by Henri Dutilleux. He transcribed Deux sonnets de Jean Cassou for Fleming (it was originally for baritone voice) and composed Le temps l'horloge specifically for Fleming. The album won the 2013 Grammy Award for Best Classical Solo Vocal Album.
