About this arrangement

Mezzo-Soprano and Organ. Voice - advanced SKU: HL.49007690 Composed by Dieter Schnebel. This edition: Saddle stitching. Sheet music. Edition Schott. Classical. Composed 1991. 16 pages. Duration 12'. Schott Music #ED7994. Published by Schott Music (HL.49007690). ISBN 9790001082440. UPC: 073999351378. 8.75x12.0x0.058 inches.The work is in two parts. 'Lamento di Guerra I' was written in the wake of the Gulf War; an initially plaintive lamentation turns more urgent and ends in howling. 'Lamento di Guerra II', triggered by reports of atrocities in the Yugoslav civil war, has a more ritualistic character. The scoring for the vocal part is flexible, but the desired 'harsh' timbre is probably best achieved by a mezzo soprano or alto. For mezzo-soprano and organ, or synthesizer and accordion.
