A berceuse is a musical genre evoking a sleep-time lullaby. The Berceuse d’automne by Éric Lebrun was composed in 2012-2013 as part of the collection of pieces intitled Contes de la rue Traversière opus 22.

A smiling face beams at us from the upper window – above a seascape where a figure lies peacefully, amidst vegetation and small birds. A man – or angel? – is resting, bathed in moonlight.
