About this arrangement

Chamber Ensemble and Vocal Solo SKU: BT.EMBZ14619 Composed by Futo Balazs. EMB Contemporary Music. Contemporary Music. Book Only. Composed 2008. 20 pages. Editio Musica Budapest #EMBZ14619. Published by Editio Musica Budapest (BT.EMBZ14619). English-German. The piece was written in 2003, commissioned by the Budapest Spring Festival. The process of the work follows the line of the composer s personal interpretation of the original poem. In this song the original dark, grim ending appears as a sort of cathartic dénouement. The theme is love versus mortality. The work is a kind of wholly composed song written in the 21st century its form derives basically from the text. The narrator begins the story in Sprechgesang and in the final lines of the poem tries to sing in a normal singing voice. This acoustic line is followed by the merging of the sinus tones into the clarinet parts. Thus, basically, a peculiar change of toneintroduced for dramatic purposes constitutes the essence of the song. First performance: March 2003. Das Stück entstand 2003 im Auftrag des Budapester Frühlingsfestivals. Der Verlauf des Werkes folgt der eigenen Interpretationen des Gedichtsoriginales. Das ursprünglich finstere Ende erscheint in diesem Lied wie ein kathartischer Ausgang. Sein Thema ist im Gegensatz zur Vergänglichkeit die Liebe. Das Werk ist eine Art im 21. Jahrhundert entstandenes, durchkomponiertes Lied, seine Form basiert grundsätzlich auf dem Text. Der Erzähler beginnt die Geschichte im Sprechgesang, in den letzten Zeilen des Gedichtes versucht er jedoch bereits mit einer normalen Gesangstimme zu singen. Diesem akustischen Zug folgt die Umschmelzung der Sinustöne in die Klarinettenstimmen. Dadurch schafft einegrundsätzlich auf dramaturgischen Aspekten basierende Änderung im Klang das Wesen des Liedes. Premiere: März 2003.
