Text: Paul Verlaine (1844­1896)

The givers of serenades
And the lovely listeners
Exchange insipid words
Under the singing branches.
There’s Thyrsis and there’s Amyntas,
And there’s the eternal Clytander,
And there’s Damis who, for many a
Cruel woman, wrote many a tender
verse.
Their short coats of silk,
Their long dresses with trains,
Their elegance, theirjoy
And their soft blue shadows

Whirl in the ecstasy
Of a moon pink and grey,
And the mandolin prattles
Among the shivers of the breeze.

Au bord de I’eau

Claude Debussy (1862­1918)

To sit, us two, at the edge of the
stream that passes
to watch it pass;
Us two, if a cloud glides by in the sky,
to watch it glide;
On the horizon, if a thatched roof
smokes,
to watch it smoke;
Around us, if a ﬂower imbues the air,
to be imbued;

.Johann Sebastian Bach (1685­1750)

Sarah Sterling, viola

To  hear, at the foot of the willow where
the water murmurs,
the water murmuring;
Not to feel, as long as this dream
lasts,
The passage of time;

But, bringing no deep passion

but to adore one another,
With no worry of the world’s quarrels,

to ignore them;

And alone, us two, before all that
causes weariness,
without wearing,
To  feel love (before all things that pass
away)
not passing away!

Les berceaux (The cradles)

Text: Sully­Prudhomme

All along the port, the big ships
That the swell sways in silence,
Pay no regard to the cradles
That the hands of women rock.

But it will come, the day of goodbyes,
As it is necessary that women weep,
And that curious men
Try the horizons that lure them!
And that day, the big vessels,
Fleeing the vanishing port,
Feel their bulk held back
By the soul of the distant cradles.

Chanson d’amour (Song o f  love)

Text: Paul Armand Silvestre (1837­1901)

I love your eyes, I love your forehead,
O my rebel, o my ﬁerce one,
I love your eyes, I love your mouth
Where my kisses will exhaust
themselves.
I love your voice, I love the strange
Grace of all that you say,
O my rebel, 0 my dear angel,
My hell and my paradise!

I love all that makes you beautiful,
From your feet to your hair,
O you, toward whom my wishes rise,
O my ﬁerce one, o my rebel!

Mstislav  Rostropovich  (1927­2007),  known  as  Slava  to  a  wide
circle  of friends, is widely regarded as the greatest cellist of the
twentieth century.  His fame rests not just on his musicianship and

his  association  with  major  composers  (he  commissioned  and

premiered over one hundred works) but for his championship of
human freedom.  His support of Alexander Solzhenitsyn won him
the 1974 award from the International League of Human Rights ­ a
stance  which  propelled  him  into  exile.  He  later  wrote  “When
Leonid Brezhnev stripped us of our citizenship in 1978, we were
obliterated.  My  wife  [the  Bolshoi  Opera  soprano  Galina
Vishnevskaa]  and  I  were  cut  out  of  photographs  and  history
books.”  His citizenship was restored in  1990,  long after he had
become an American citizen.  Born in Baku in the Soviet Republic
of Azerbaijan in 1927, he came from a musical family.  His father
and  grandfather  were  eminent  cellists.  A  gifted  youngster,  he
entered  the  Moscow  Conservatory  at  the  age  of  16.  He  soon
embarked on a long and highly successful career as a performer,
teacher, and from 1 977 to 1994, the Music Director of the National
Symphony in Washington, D.C.  In addition to being a great cellist
and a conductor, Rostropovich was also a ﬁne pianist who often
accompanied his wife in recitals.  He had an astonishing memory.
In  whatever  medium  he  performed­­­soloist,  conductor,
accompanist­­­he never used a score.
This evening’s recital presents important works from three
famous com posers o f the twentieth century : two were Russian and

one was British.  The circumstance that brought together composer
and performer was diﬀerent for each work as is noted in our brief
description  of each  composition.  Each  situation  resulted  in  a
major addition to the cello repertory and a new level of enjoyment
for the modern audience.  The composer, knowing he is writing for

one o f the century’s great virtuosos, creates a  work that displays

the virtuoso’s abilities­­­ﬂatters him, indeed!­­­and the new piece
becomes  a  challenge  attainable  by  only  the  most  capable
performers.
In  the  early  1940s,  the  young  student  Rostropovich  had
been lucky enough to gain a much­coveted place in Shostakovich’s
orchestration class, thus beginning a lifetime association between
the famous composer and his talented student.  The Seven Verses

�of Aleksander Blok grew out of a request in  1968 from Mstislav
and Galina  for a set of vocalizes for voice and cello.  The ﬁrst
verse, “Ophelia’s Song ” is indeed for voice  and cello.  “You see,
Slava, I tried to satisfy your request, but whe n I started writing the
second movement with a whacking pizzicato in the cello, I realized
I  didn’t  have  enough  instruments.”  ­  with  that  comment  the
composer explains his reason for adding violin  and piano to the
ensemble.  The  verses  of  the  symbolist  poet  Alexander  Blok
(1880­1921)  concern  troubled  nights,  sleep,  a  storm,  and  the
importance of music.  The ﬁrst three verses are for voice and one
instrument, verses fou r and ﬁve use two in struments, and verses

six and seven call for the full ensemble.  The ﬁrst ﬁve songs are
intimate  and  pensive;  the  last  two  are  powerful,  indeed  almost
strident.
In  December  1948,  Rostropovich  gave  the  ﬁrst
performance  of a  new sonata  for  cello  by  Myaskovsky.  The
composer came backstage with his friend, Sergei Prokoﬁev (1891­
1953), who  told Rostropovich  “I want to write a sonata for you.”
As soon as he had ﬁnished the work, the Cello Sonata, op. 119,  he
invited the young cellist to his dacha near Moscow.  Rostropovich
later recounted this experience: I had prepared the sonata well and
had also learned the piano part from memory.  By now Prokoﬁev
no longer played the piano so well, and when we read through the
sonata I was amazed that he had managed to forget his own music
so quickly.  He played as if he was sight­ reading!  I went so far as
to  correct  him  when  he  played  some  wrong  notes.  At  this  he
turned to me: “Young man, who wrote this work, you or me?”  He
suggested that I play t he sonata with [the gr eat pianist] Sviatoslav

Richter,  thereby  giving  his  blessing  to  the  start  of  my  duo
relationship with ‘Teoﬁlovich"‘
The sonata, equally  demanding  for  cellist  and  pianist,  is
cheerful and tuneful, with a decided change in the third movement
which  has a more somber undertone.  One  reviewer succinctly
described  the  work  as  sensuous  in  the  ﬁrst  movement,  full  of
mischief and mirth in  the second movement, and enigmatic in the
closing  movement.  The  premier  performance  took  place  in
Moscow in 1949,  played by Rostropovich and Richter.

Benjamin  Britten  (1913­1976)  was  introduced  to

Rostropovich  by Shostakovich at the Edinburgh Festival in 1960.
Britten  said  he’d  never  heard  such  cello  playing.  A  warm

friendship  developed.  Britten, a formidable  pianist, was also  a
violist  who  knew  how  to write  for  strings.  His  ﬁrst work  for

Rostropovich, a sonata, greatly impressed t he cellist.  In  1964, a

series  o f  am using  events  for  com pose r  a n d  pe rform e r,  too

complicated  to  be  described  in  these  brief notes, culminated  in

Britten’s  signing a  mock  contract on the  corner o f a  restaurant
menu in which he prom ised to write six suites for cello.  Obviously.

the  promised  composition  was also  to  be  an  homage  to  Bach’s
great six suites for unaccompanied cello.  The composer lived only
long enough to complete three of the suites.  Rostropovich argued
that no other com pose r understood th e nature o f  string playing so

well.  The three suites for cello display innovations in instrumental
writing such as presenting two separate melodic  lines in  double­
stops.  Each suite includes a fugue. a tribute to the fu gue writing
in  Bach’s  Well­Tempered  Clavier.  In  fact,  there  is  a  clear
similarity  between  Britten’s  fugue  in  the  ﬁrst  Suite  and  the  C

major fugue in Volume One of the Bach work.
The Bach cello suite consists of a Prelude followed by ﬁve

baroque Dances.  Britten’s suite structure has six basic movem ents

framed  by  a  Canto  which  appears  three  times  among  the
movements  and  again  at  the  close.  Within  the  Canto there  is
emphasis on an ascend ing scale pattern (E F sharp G A B) which is
heard  in  many  guises  throughout  the  work.  Britten  notated
dynamics and  phrasing  precisely  and  yet,  because  much  of the
music  is  non­metrical (bar len gths vary), the performance yields
the spontaneity of an  improvisation.  The  Suite  no. 1,  op. 72,
written  in  1964, was  ﬁrst  performed  by  Rostropovich  at the
Aldeburgh Festival in June of 1965.

�Stefano Donaudy aspired to be a great opera composer, finding
popular success in the genre from ·the age of 14. His composition teacher
said he had an "effortless melodic spirit." Donaudy's operas did not endure
at a time when the works of Verdi and Puccini dominated the operatic
landscape, but his Arie di Stile Antico are now quite popular for recitalists.
These pieces are in the traditional vein for which Donaudy is best known.
Biographical material on the composer is strangely limited. We can only
guess at the origins of the passionate intensity of his songs (giving some
credit to Donaudy's Sicilian roots!), but, for whatever reason, they convey a
tells of budding love
l
great generosity of heart and soul. Venuto è l'Aprile
between mythical nymphs and wood spirits. The voice begins alone,
followed by the piano in the same sprightly melody, and they seem to chase
each other and dance, like the song's characters. Bittersweetly, Luoghi
sereni e cari recalls youth and the pain of a first heartbreak. The
accompaniment is at times wistful and music-box-like, and at other times
swelling with more mature colors. A deeper, unresolved loss is mourned in
the operatic Quando ti rivedro. The speaker asks when she will see her
unfaithful lover again, but the music tells us that she knows he will not
return. Ending the set with lighter fare, Ognun ripicchia e nicchia tells
the familiar story of a promising date gone awry.
When Franz Schubert was eight, he studied with organist Michael
Holzer, who reportedly said, with tears in his eyes, ''Whenever I wished to
impart something new to him, he always knew it already." Schubert is
perhaps the Giant of German lieder. With astonishing speed he wrote
hundreds of songs in addition to a myriad of other compositions in his
short life. Everything in the gamut of emotional experience has probably
been expressed in a Schubert song. Additionally, these musical gems evoke
images and sensations of water, breezes, sunset, and the like. Schubert's
idealism comes through in music that elevates the human experience. "The
important elements of Schubert's character were a love of truth, and a
marked hatred of jealousy, tenderness with firmness, sincerity and
affection ... " These qualities are exemplified in An die Musik. This song is
like a duet between the voice and the piano's melodic bass-line. Schubert
wrote the last two songs in this set while struggling with illness and
depression. Equivocation between minor and major in Auf dem Wasser
zu singen expresses awe, sadness and ultimately joy in the face of life's
ephemeral beauty and the speaker's own mortality. The speaker of
Friihlingsglaube comforts her own "poor heart" and welcomes the
promise of spring heralded by "gentle breezes." One supposes that the
composition of such songs must have helped Schubert cope with his illness.
After he died, his tomb was given Grillparzer's famous epitaph: "The art of
music has entombed here a rich treasure but even fairer hopes."

�Though Fanny Mendelssohn-Hensel displayed prodigious talent
early on, her family strongly discouraged her pursuit of a musical career.
She transferred much of her creative energy into advising her brother, Felix.
Nonetheless, she composed prolifically, developing a distinct musical voice.
In 1846, she summoned the courage to publish, announcing it in an
apologetic letter to her brother, "I hope you won't think badly of me ... if
the pieces are well liked and I receive additional offers ... it will be a great
stimulus to me, something I've always needed in order to create ... " She
died soon after. Today, the majority of her works remain in family archives,
unavailable to performers and listeners. These three songs represent some
of her great emotional range, and ability to create richness through relatively
simple, clean melodies with novel twists. An ironic major-minor conflict,
and rhythmically crowded phrases embody the broken-hearted turmoil of
Verlust. Sehnsucht begins on a long note that fades away like the distant
"dance tune" it describes. Its melody moves primarily in descending scales,
but at times rises and holds our expectation, mirroring the speaker's unfed
yearning. Evoking the brilliance of nineteenth century Italian opera, ltalien
soars, dance-like, in an outburst of pure, triumphant joy. About a month
before Hensel died, she wrote of such bliss in her diary. Perhaps beginning
to share her work with the world gave her a new freedom and lightness of
heart. "Yesterday the first breath of spring was in the air. It has been a
long winter ... indeed a winter full of suffering ... My inmost heart is ... full
of thankfulness.... I am quite overcome with my own happiness."
Carrie Jacobs-Bond was a piano prodigy, but did not pursue
music professionally until after the death of her second husband, when she
lost nearly everything. She fought poverty for years, .providing for herself
and her son by writing, selling and performing songs "unpretentious as a
wild rose." She suffered stage fright, and was criticized for being "plain and
angular." An untrained vocalist, she courageously sang and played her
songs on her own at first because she could not find anyone else to do it.
Ultimately she became quite famous and successful for her music and
earnest performances. Upon hearing her most famous song, At the End of a
Perfect Day, in concert, a Viennese composer visiting the United States stood
up, thinking it was the national anthem, so revered and beloved it was. It is
easy to imagine Jacobs-Bond delivering these pearls of wisdom, the HalfMinute Songs. They are infused with her uprightness, forthrightness, and
most of all, her consciousness that in making music, she was giving a muchneeded gift: "I wonder what the world would be like if there were nobody
to do the simple things!" Bond wrote, "I wonder how folks would get along
without snappers, and hooks and eyes, and pins. Nothing could be much
commoner than they are, but they fill a very much-needed place. You see,
lots of folks can get along without a point lace collar, but I should hate to
see folks try to get along without the other commodities I've spoken of.
And sometimes songs (simple songs) like pins keep folks together."

�Gabriel Fauré was reportedly very charming and seductive, like so
many of his melodies. He was quite busy as a teacher and organist, and
could not devote the majority of his time to composition. Fauré's life
spanned the musical developments of greats like Berlioz, Berg, and
Shostakovich, and he was educated with a wide range of musical voices
from an early age, giving him an extensive palette. The musical language he
created out of all that he absorbed was one of the most modern of its time.
Mandoline is an excellent example. Its melody seems to begin simply, as
does the picture of the archetypal lovers it describes, but falls into a colorful
and amorous reverie, destabilizing our sense of the key. Au bard de l'eau
describes the infinite richness of the moments two people can share when
they live and love in the present. Les berceaux juxtaposes the rocking of
large ships in a harbor with the rocking of cradles. Both are represented in
the music: long phrases stretch over a shorter constant rocking figure in the
piano's right hand. The set closes with the breathless Chanson d'amour.
In it, the poet ecstatically enumerates everything he loves about his fiery
lover, from head to feet.
One of our greatest living composers, Stephen Sondheim is a
lover of words, internal process, and impeccability of speech and
expression. Through his songs we enter vast emotional and intellectual
landscapes, each rich and unique; but no matter how smart, novel, or dark,
they are simply human at the core. Sondheim trained with Oscar
Hammerstein, and followed in his footsteps to earn a place in the Pantheon
of musical theatre composers. In Sondheim's work one hears the influence
of opera (Puccini in his crowd scenes) and musical theatre (Hammerstein in
his love songs). Additionally, there is an incredibly current, vernacular and
bitingly intellectual use of language. The composer has an uncanny ability
to tap into a character's soul and mind, often through the musicality of
natural speech patterns: An extended rest may be a moment of clarity, a
dotted rhythm a hesitation, and so on. These three songs are full of such
telling moments. They present three young women coming of age, seeking
freedom. Johanna, from Sweeney Todd, is in the care of an oppressive and
lascivious ward, kept in her room all day, listening to the songs of the caged
birds outside her window. She sings back to them in Green Finch and
Linnet Bird Johanna sings a tuneful and light melody, yet a persistent,
somewhat dissonant, beat in the piano belies her growing dissatisfaction.
The second selection is from an episode of ABC's "Studio 67 ," Evening
Primrose, that tells the story of a group of people who have decided to
separate from society by living in a department store. Ellen was brought to
the store by her mother when she was very young, and has always wished to
leave. When a disillusioned poet comes to stay in the store, Ellen and he
fall in love. She pleads him to escape with her in Take Me to the World
The melody evokes classic musical theatre, but the accompaniment is
ominous and harmonically "crunchy." The last character is Cinderella,
from Into the Woods, who tells how she really came to leave her glass slipper
On the Steps of the Palace.

�In selecting this program, I noticed that the pieces I was drawn to
shared common threads such as nature, dance, water, flowers, birds,
positive existentialism, idyllic settings and awakenings. Such themes and
motifs are hardly surprising to find in art songs and musical theatre pieces.
However, I want to highlight them in celebration of Spring and all it
represents. If I titled this evening, I might borrow from Schubert and
Uhland and call it Frühlingsglaube (Spring-Faith). I wish you all the best in the
new season and forward ... Finally, in the words of Bek David Campbell,
"Please enjoy."

�I. Venuto è l' Aprile
Text: Alberto Donaudy (1880-1941)

April has come

Venuto è l'Aprile tessendo ghirlande,
E ninfee silvani sulprato raunando.
A ccordan gli ontani i loro strumenti
E ai primi concenti de/ vento
Fra i rami comincia la danza.
Prima un fauno s'avanza...
La sua ninja lo mira... S ospira...
E volano insiem!

April has come, weaving garlands,
And nymphs and sylvans are gathering on the meadow.
The alder trees are tuning their instruments
And at the first harmony of the wind
Among the branches, the dance begins.
First a faun advances .. .
His nymph looks at him .. . Sighs .. .
And they fly away together!

Folleggian le coppie tra ifonti e le rive,
E poi nelle selve scompaion furtive ...
Ma Clori, che intanto gelosa è di Nice,
Aspetta infelicee so/a, nelpianto,
Che cessi la danza.

The couples frolic among the fountains and streams,
And then into the forest disappear furtively . ..
But Clori, who meanwhile is jealous of Nice,
Waits unhappily and alone, in tears,
For the dance to stop.

Maun pastore s'avanza...
E già Clori lo mira... S ospira...
E volano insiem!

But a shepherd advances . . .
And Clori looks at him .. . Sighs . ..
And they fly away together!

Luoghi sereni e cari
Text: Alberto Donaudy

Places serene and dear

Luoghi sereni e cari, io vi ritrovo
Quali ai bei dì lasciai digiovinezza!
Gli stessi amati aspetti
Ovunque iipasso io muovo...
Sol non mi punge ancor
Che l'amarezza dei mesti giorni
In cui i tormenti d'un triste inganno
Insegnato m'hanno pei primicosa
Al mondo è dolor!

Places serene and dear, I find you again
Just as beautiful as I left you in the days of my youth!
The same beloved sights
Wherever I tum my step ...
Only now do I not sting with
The bitterness of mournful days
During which the torments of a sad deception
Taught me for the first time what
In the world is griefl

Lungi da voi fuggitoal/or
Cercai di trovar pace al mio tradito core.
Andaifin oltre mare, ed altre donne amai...
Ma nu/la può /enire quel do/ore
Ch'è piaga viva in ogni core d'amante
Che nell'amore aveva ugualfade
Che pregando ii Signor!

Having fled far from you, then
Trying to find peace for my betrayed heart.
I went beyond the sea, and loved other women ...
But nothing can lessen that pain
Which is a living wound in every lover's heart
Who had as much faith in love
As in praying to the Lord!

�Quando ti rivedrò
Text: Alberto Donaudy

When shall I see you again

Quando ti rivedrò,
Infida amante che mifosti si cara?
T ante !agrime ho piante
Or che a/trui ci separa,
Che temo sia fuggita ogni gioia
Per sempre di mia vita.
Eppur più mi dispero,
Più ritorno a sperare.
Più t'odio ne/pensiero,
E più ancora l'anima mia ti torna ad amar.

When shall I see you again,
Unfaithful lover who was so dear to me?
So many tears have I wept
Now that another separates us,
That I fear every joy will be gone
Forever from my life.
And yet the more I despair,
The more I return to hoping.
The more I despise you in my thoughts,
Then once again my soul turns to loving you.

Quando ti rivedrò,
Infida amante che mifosti cara cosi?

When will I see you again,
Unfaithful lover who was dear to me like that?

Ognun ripicchia e nicchia
Text: Alberto Donaudy
Ognun ripicchia e nicchia ognor
Su un caso strano a dir.
Ma perchè, ma cos'è,
Che tanto amor dovea cosifinir?
Orio voglio la mia storia raccontar
T anto bujfa ell'è:
Me ne givo un di con Monna Lapa insiem,
Che si cara m'era al cor,
Peri campi a raccoglier.ftor. ..
Ma la storia comincia qui.

Everyone repeats and hesitates each time
Over a case strange to tell.
But why, but how is it,
That so much love must end this way?
Now I want to tell my story
So funny it is:
I was walking one day with my lady Lapa,
Who was so dear to my heart,
Through the fields to pick flowers ...
But the story begins here.

U'! cos'è quel ch'io veggo là?
Un grillo o un rusignuol?
Più be! ve'! Più be! ve'!
La mia beltà sedette su un poggiuol.
Lei sperava di poter cosi
Coder ii divin cantor,
Ma al trillar de/ grillo
E al pronto suo balzar
Diede un grido, e nelfuggir,
Sù ove prima seggea cascò....
E la storia.ftnisce Ii.

Ooh! What is that I see there?
A cricket or a nightingale?
Look- more beautiful! Look- more beautiful!
My beauty sat on a little hill.
That way she hoped to be able
To enjoy the divine singer,
But at the trill of the cricket
And his quick leap
She gave a shriek, and as she fled,
I fell on the place where she had sat,
And the story ends there .

�II. An die Musik
Text: Franz von Schober (1797-1828)
Du ho/de Kunst, in wievielgrauen Stunden,
Wo mich des Lebens wilder Kreis umstrickt,
Hast du mein Herz zu warmer Lieb' entzunden,
Hast mich in eine beßre Welt entrückt!

To Music

Oft hat ein Seufzer, deiner Harf'entjlossen,
Bin süßer, heiliger Akkord von dir
Den Himmel beßrer Zeiten mir erschlossen,
Du ho/de Kunst, ich danke dir dafür!

Often has a sigh, flowing from your harp,
A sweet, holy chord from you
Unlocked the heaven of better times for me,
You dear art, I thank you for that!

Auf dem Wasser zu singen
Text: Graf zu Stollberg (17 48-1821)

To be sung on the water

Mitten im S chimmer der spiegelnden Wellen
Gleitet, wie S chwäne, der wankende Kahn;
Ach, auf der Freude sanjtschimmernden Wellen
Gleitet die S eele dahin wie der Kahn;
Denn von dem Himmel herab auj die Weflen
Tanzet das Abendrot rund um den Kahn.

Amid the shimmer of the mirroring waves
Glides, as swans do, the wobbling little boat;
Ah, on joy's soft-shimmering waves,
Glides the soul there like the boat;
Then from the heavens down on the waves
Dances the evening's red glow around the boat,

Ober den Wipftln des westlichen Haines
Winket uns.freund!ich der rötliche Schein;
Unter den Zweigen des ostlichen Haines
Säuselt der Kalmus im rötlichen Schein;
Freude des Himme!s und Ruhe des Haines
Atmet die Seel im erriitenden Schein.

Over the treetops of the westerly wood
The red glow winks to us friendily,
Under the boughs of the easterly wood
Rustle the reeds in the reddish shine;
Joy of the heavens and peace of the woods
Breathes the soul, in the reddening shine.

Ach, es entschwindet mit tauigem Flügel
Mir auf den wiegenden Wellen die Zeit.
Morgen entschwinde mit schimmerndem Flügel
Wieder wie gestern und heute die Zeit,
Bis ich auf höherem strah!enden Flügel
Seiber entschwinde der wechselnden Zeit.

Ah, with dewy wings, time vanishes
From me, on the rocking waves.
Tomorrow, time flies on shimmering wings,
Again, like yesterday and today,
Until I, on higher sparkling wings
Myself will vanish in the changing time.

Friihlingsglaube
Text: Ludwig Uhland (1787-1862)

Spring-faith

Die linden Lüfte sind erwacht,
Sie säuseln und wehen Tag unt Nacht,
Sie scha.ffen an a/fen Enden.
Duft, o neuer Klang!
0 frischer
Nun, armes Herze, sei nicht Bang!
Nun muss such al/es, al/es wenden.

The gentle breezes are awake,
They rustle and waft day and night,
They are at work everywhere.
0 fresh scent, o new sound!
Now, poor heart, be not afraid!
Now must everything, everything change.

Die Weft wird schöner mitjedem Tag,
Man weiss nicht, was noch werden mag,
Das Blühen will nicht enden;
Es blüht das ftrnste, tieftte ta!,
Nun, armes Herz, vergiss der Qua!!
Nun muss sich al/es, alles wenden.

The world grows lovelier with every day,
One does not know what yet may come to be,
The flowering will not end;
The farthest, deepest valley blooms,
Now, poor heart, forget your pain!
Now must everything, everything change.

III. Verlust
Text Heinrich Heine (1787-1856)

Loss

Und wüßten's die Blumen, die kfeinen,
Wie tief verwundet mein Herz,
Sie wßrden mit mir weinen,
Zu heilen meinen Schmerz.

And if they knew, the flowers, the little ones,
How deeply wounded my heart is,
They would weep with me,
To heal my pain.

You dear art, in how many gray hours,
Where I was ensnared in life's wild circle,
Have you kindled warm love in my heart,
Have you moved me to a better world!

�Und wüßten's die Nachtigallen,
Wie ich so traurig und krank,
Sie ließen fröhlich erschallen
Erquickenden Gesang.

And if the nightingales knew,
How I am so sad and sick,
They would happily let ring out
Refreshing song.

Und wüßten sie mein Wehe,
Die goldnen Sternelein,
Sie kämen aus ihrer Höhe,
Und sprächen Trost mir ein.

And if they knew my pain,
The golden little stars,
They would come from their height,
And speak consolation to me.

Die a/le können's nicht wissen,
Nur Einer kennt meinen Schmerz;
Er hatja selbst zerrissen,
Zerrissen mir das Herz.

They all cannot know it,
Only one knows my pain;
He has, yes, himself ripped apart,
Ripped apart my heart.

Sehnsucht
Text: Johann Gustav Droysen (1809-1884)

Longing

Fern undferner schallt der Reigen.
Wohl mir! um mich her ist S chweigen
a Flur.
Aufder
Zu dem vol/en Herzen nur
Will nicht Ruh' sich neigen.

Far and farther sounds the round dance.
Well to me! around me here is silence
On the land.
Only to my full heart
Will rest not come.

Horeb! die Nacht schwebt durch die Riiume.
Ihr Gewand durchrauscht die Bäume
Lispelnd leis'.
Ach, so schweifen liebeheiß
Meine Wiinsch' und Träume.

Hark! The night soars through the space.
I ts robe rushes through the trees
Murmuring softly
Ah, thus roam, love-hot,
My wishes and dreams.

Italien
Text: Franz Grillparzer (1791-1872)

Italy

Schöner und schöner schmiickt sich der Plan,
S chmeichelnde Lüfte wehen mich an!
Fort aus der Prosa Lasten und Müh'
Zich' ich zum Lande der Poesie.

Fairer and fairer the plain decks itself,
As coaxing breezes blow me along!
Away from the burden and trouble of prose
Drawing me toward the land of poetry.

Gold'ner die Sonne, blauer die Luft,
Grüner die Grüne, würz'ger der Duft!
Dort an dem Maishalm, schwellend von Saft,
Sträubt sich der Aloe störrische Kraft;

More golden the sun, bluer the air,
Greener the green, more fragrant the scent!
There by the cornstalk, swelling with sap,
Struggles the aloe's obstinate strength;

Olbaum, Cypresse, blond du, du braun,
Nickt ihr wie zjerliche, grüßende Frau'n?
Was glänzt im Laube,funkelnd wie Gold?
Hal Pomeranze, birgst du dich hold?

Olive tree, cypress, one blond, and one brown,
Don't you nod like dainty, greeting ladies?
What gleams in the foliage, sparkling like gold?
Ah! Oranges, are you lovelies hiding there?

Trotz'ger Poseidon, wärest du dies,
Der unten scherzt und murmelt so süß?
Und dies, halb Wiese, halbAther zu schau'n,
Es wär des Meeres furchtbares Grau'n?

Defiant Poseidon, were you the same one,
Who below now jokes and murmurs so sweetly?
And this, half meadow, half ether, it seems,
Was the sea's fearsome horror?

Hier will ich wohnen, Göttliche du:
Bringst du, Parthenope, Wogen zur Ruh'?
Nun denn versuch' es, Eden der Lust,
Eb'ne die Wogen auch dieser Brust.

Here I would live! Godlike one:
Can you Parthenope bring the waves to rest?
Now then, try it, Eden of Joy,
And ease also, the waves in this breast.

�V. Mandoline
Text: Paul Verlaine (1844-1896)
Les donneurs de sérénades
Et !es belles écouteuses
Echangent des propos fades
Sous !es ramures chanteuses.

The givers of serenades
And the lovely listeners
Exchange vapid words
Under the singing branches.

C'est Tircis et c'est Aminte,
Et c'est l'éternel Clitandre,
Et c'est Damis qui pour mainte
Cruelle [fait]* maint vers tendre.

There's Thyrsis and there's Amyntas,
And there's the eternal Clytander,
And there's Damis who, for many a
Cruel woman, wrote many a tender verse.

Leurs courtes vestes de soie,
Leurs longues robes àqueues,
Leur élégance, leurJoie
Et leurs molles ombres bleues

Their short coats of silk,
Their long dresses with trains,
Their elegance, their joy
And their soft blue shadows

Tourbillonent dans l'extase
D'une lune rose et grise,
Et la mandolineJase
Parmi !es frissons de brise.

Whirl in the ecstasy
Of a moon pink and grey,
And the mandoline prattles
Among the shivers of the breeze.

Au bord de l'eau
Text: Sully-Prudhomme (1839-1907)
S 'asseoir taus deux au bard du flat qui passe,
Le voirpasser;
Taus deux, s'ilglisse un nuage en l'espace,
Le voir glisser;
À /'horizon s'ilfume un toit de chaume,
Le voirfumer;
Aux alentours si quelqueJleur embaume,
S 'en embaumer;

At the edge of the water

Entendre au pied du saule ou l'eau murmure
L 'eau murmurer;
Ne pas sentir tant que ce rêve dure,
Le temps durer;

To hear, at the foot of the willow where the water
murmurs, the water murmuring;
Not to feel, as long as this dream lasts,
The passage of time;

Mais, n 'apportent de passion profonde,
Qu 'à s 'adorer,
Sans nu! souci des querelles du monde,
Les ignorer;

But, bringing no deep passion,
Except to adore one another,
With no worry of the world's quarrels,
To ignore them;

Et seul taus deux devant tout ce qui lasse,
Sans se lasser,
S entir !'amour devant tout ce qui passé,
Ne point passer!

And alone, us two, before all that causes weariness,
Without wearing,
To feel love, faced with all things that pass away,
Not passing away!

To sit, us two, at the edge of the stream that passes,
To watch it pass;
Us two, if a cloud glides in the sky,
To watch it glide;
On the horizon, if a thatched roof smokes,
To watch it smoke;
Around us, if a flower imbues the air,
To be imbued;

�Les berceaux
Text: Sully Prudhomme

The cradles

Le long du quai, !es grands vaisseaux,
Que la houle incline en silence,
Ne prennent pas garde aux berceaux,
Que la main des.femmes balance.

All along the port, the big vessels, ·
That the swell sways in silence,
Pay no regard to the cradles
That the hands of women rock.

Mais viendra le jour des adieux,
Car iifaut que !es femmes pleurent,
Et que !es homes curieux,
Tentent !es horizons qui leurrent!

But it will come, the day of goodbyes,
As it is necessary that women weep,
And that curious men
Attempt the horizons that lure them!

Et ce jour-là !es grands vaisseaux,
Fuyant le port qui diminue,
Sentent leur masse retenue
Par l•âmedes lointains berceaux.

And that day, the big vessels,
Fleeing the vanishing port,
Feel their bulk held back
By the soul of the distant cradles.

Chanson d'amour

ABOUT THE MUSIC
Passacaglia on an Old English Tune • Rebecca Clarke was born and
educated in Britain, but spent most of her life in the United States. She
wrote close to 100 works in her lifetime, though by the time of her death
in 1979, even the 20 that had previously been published were out of
print. Since then, scholarship and interest in her work has revived.
Clarke's style combines elements of impressionism, post-romanticism,
and neo-classicism to create a powerful musical statement. She wrote the
"Passacaglia on an Old English Tune" and performed its premiere herself
in 1941. The work is based on a theme by Thomas Tallis. Clarke
transforms the simple melody into something much more potent and full
of emotion. The piece was dedicated "To BB," which could either refer
to Clarke's niece Magdalen, or to Benjamin Britten. (The latter would
make sense as Britten had organized a funeral for Frank Bridge, an
influential composer and friend of Clarke's, that same year. The
Passacaglia creates feelings of grief and nostalgia that could easily have
accompanied such a loss.)
Suite No. 1 in G major, BWV 1007 • Johann Sebastian Bach wrote his
six Cello Suites during his time as music director at Cothen, probably
around 1720. In this position, he had no church musical responsibilities
and so was able to compose mostly secular music for domestic and
pedagogical use. The suites were at first believed to be etudes, and for
many years were paid little attention. Today, however, they have become
an essential part of the repertoire for the cello and a plethora of other
instruments, including the viola. Because Bach left no manuscript and
little or no markings indicating tempi, dynamics and other aspects of
performance, much has been inferred from other copies of his
manuscript, especially those written by Bach's second wife, Anna
Magdalena. The suites each showcase the various technical possibilities
of the instrument, and are comprised of six movements: an improvisatory
prelude followed by five variously styled dance movements. Perhaps the

�best-known movement of the G major Suite, the Prelude, consists
primarily of arpeggiated chords. The dance movements that follow cover
the entire stylistic spectrum, alternately poised, exuberant,
contemplative, carefree, and full of joy. Though the concept seems
almost too simple, Bach's innovative combination of contrapuntal,
harmonic, and rhythmic techniques makes the work sophisticated and
whole even without accompaniment.
Fantasie, Op. 94 • The Fantasie was composed in 1820 in the context of
a larger work, Potpourri for Viola and Orchestra. Hummel's Potpourri
was made up of eight distinctive sections containing music from the
operas of Mozart and Rossini, as well as improvisatory and fugal
elements. In its shortened form, it has become a staple of the viola
repertoire. Editions have been published for other instruments as well,
including violin, cello, and even string quartet. A gravely emotional G
minor beginning sets the tone for the Fantasie. The piece then switches
gears with a florid Andante section in B flat major, based on the aria "II
mio tesoro" from Mozart's Don Giovanni. A rollicking Allegro ma non
troppo in D major carries the piece to a triumphant finish.
Sonata for Viola and Piano • The Sonata for Viola and Piano was
written between 1825 and 1828. In his Memoirs, Glinka describes it as
"cleaner" than his other compositions of this early period. The first
movement was composed in 1825 while he was living in St. Petersburg
as a sort of transition from academic composition to "real" music. Glinka
composed the second movement while visiting Moscow in 1828. Though
he started work on the third movement, it was ultimately never realized.
(The Rondo theme originally intended for the third movement was later
incorporated in a polka for children.) Thus, the second movement
concludes the sonata. (Most of the work done by Vadim Borisovsky to
complete the piece consisted of elaborating the piano part.) In the end,
Glinka was pleased with the sonata's "clever counterpoint" and saw it as
one of his most successful compositions. The piece has a certain frank
sincerity that, combined with a distinctly Russian flavor and dramatic
mood, makes it both exciting and accessible for listeners.
String Quartet No. 1 in E minor, "From My Life" • Smetana's String
Quartet No. 1 in E minor "From My Life" was written in 1876, two years
after its composer tragically lost his hearing. Its title reveals the quartet's
autobiographical nature. In an 1878 letter to Josef Srb, Smetana explains,

�"I wanted to depict in music the course of my life ... the composition is
almost only a private one and so purposely written for four instruments
which, as in a small circle of friends, talk among themselves about what
has oppressed me so significantly." Indeed, the work is made up of
separate musical ideas that can be said to represent its composer's state
of mind at significant points in his life. At the time the piece was
composed, such programmatic works were for the most part reserved for
the symphony, rather than the string quartet. This makes "From My
Life" somewhat unique as a chamber work. The quartet was initially
rejected by the Prague Chamber Music Association for its "dubious
orchestral style," as well as for what were then considered instances of
technical impossibility. It was finally performed in the Konvikt Hall of
Prague on March 29, 1879. The first movement is a depiction of
Smetana's youth - his love of music and a desire for something
indescribable. It ends with a moment of foreshadowing in the first violin,
a premonition of deafness, ultimately signified in the final movement by
a long-held high E.

Leonard Bernstein (1910-1990) was born in Lawrence, Massachusetts and was the first
American-born conductor to direct the New York Philharmonic Orchestra. Bernstein
studied composition at Harvard, conducting at the Curtis Institute, and conducting at the
Tanglewood Music Festival with Serge Koussevitzky, former conductor of the Boston
Symphony Orchestra. Well known for his symphonies, vocal music, and the Broadway
musical "West Side Story," Bernstein was also passionate about music education. During
his post as director of the New York Philharmonic brchestra (1958-1969), Bernstein
conducted free outdoor concerts in the parks of New York City, and televised his "Young
People's Concerts," an educational series that educated the public about different
composers, genres, and characteristics of music. Bernstein also broke gender and racial
barriers when he appointed to the orchestra the first two female instrumentalists and the
first African-American instrumentalist.
A Musical Toast (1980) was devoted to the memory of Andre Kostelanetz (1901-1980), a
Russian born American conductor for the CBS radio network, known for popularizing
classical music and influencing the film music of his time. In his last Will and Testament,
Kostelanetz left this message:
"If there is contemplated a gathering of my family, friends and associates in
New York City, or elsewhere, I direct that such a gathering shall be a cheerful
get-together."

Upon this request, Bernstein wrote this musical tribute as a bright and energetic
composition. Predominately in the meter of seven-eight, the musical phrase created just
so happened to fit nicely with the rhythmic flow of the remembered friend's name.
Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750), born in Eisenach in Germany, was a virtuosic
organist and composer influenced by Pachelbel, Frescobaldi, and Buxtehude. Bach
acquired compositional skills through copying and arranging the music of other
composers including Vivaldi and Telemann. He was one of the most prolific composers
of fugues, chorales, cantatas, toccatas, fantasias, and other styles of the Baroque era.
Bach's music career included appointed positions as church organist, court musician and
Kapellmeister (music director). From 1723-1739, Bach held one of the most prestigious
positions in Germany as the Cantor of St. Thomas School in combination with civic
director of music where he composed and directed music for the church, the school, and
town ceremonies.
Fantasia in G Major was composed early in Bach's career during residence in Arnstadt
between 1703 and 1707. Fantasia in G Major, composed in a freely improvisatory style
of the Baroque era, was categorized as one of the grandest of all Bach's compositions
written for the organ. This selection also fits the description associated with many of his
early works and considered to be too full of "wonderful variations and foreign tones."
The rich harmonies of this five-part polyphonic composition contain frequent
suspensions, dissonances, and modulations of the key.

Ralph Vaughan Williams (1872-1958), born in England, studied piano, organ, violin,
viola, and theory and harmony at an early age, and earned degrees in music and history
from Trinity College in Cambridge. After studying composition abroad in Germany and
Paris, Vaughan Williams refocused his interest toward folksongs from his native country
of England. He was well known for his collections of folk songs and his involvement
-with the English Folk Dance and Song Society, as well as incorporating folk songs into

�compositions. Throughout his life, he also served as the director of music for the First
Army of the British Expeditionary Force, and flourished as a lecturer, writer, and
conductor.
English Folk Song Suite was written for British Military Band in 1924, and was
comprised with arrangements of several different English folk songs.
Movement I. March-"Seventeen Come Sunday" begins with the song "Seventeen Come
Sunday," then "Pretty Caroline" was used in a lyrical style featuring a clarinet and
trumpet duet, followed by a heavy section based on the song "Dives and Lazarus."
Movement II. Intermezzo-"My Bonny Boy" opens with the oboist playing the melody of
the folk song "My Bonny Boy." The lyrics to this folk song portray a devoted girlfriend
whose boyfriend leaves her for another. "Green Bushes," which interrupts "My Bonny
Boy," depicts a boy suffering heartbreak when he finds that his girl has left him for
another boy.
Movement III. March-"Folk Songs from Somerset" presents "Blow Away the Morning
Dew" with solo trumpet, followed by "High Germany," "The Tree so High" in six-eight
time featuring the upper woodwind section, and the "John Barleycorn" featuring the
rugged melody in the low woodwind and brass sections.
John Barnes Chance (1932-1972) was born in Beaumont, Texas and earned degrees in
music from the University of Texas at Austin where he studied composition with Clifton
Williams. Chance's early musical accomplishments included playing timpani for the
Austin Symphony orchestra, as well as conducting and arranging for the Fourth and
Eighth United States Army Bands. He served as the composer in residence at the Ford
Foundation Young Composers Project held in North Carolina from 1960-1962, and as a
professor of music at the University of Kentucky until his tragic accidental death caused
by electrocution at the age of forty.

Variations on a Korean Folk Song, which Chance won the American Bandmasters
Association Ostwald Award for in 1966, was inspired and based on the Korean folk song
"Arirang," which Chance heard while serving in Seoul, Korea with the Eighth United
States Army Band during the 1950s. Although, the word arirang does not possess a
modem translation, in the ancient Korean language, arirang may have been translated as
beautiful or lovely dear. Versions of the lyrics tell the story of a person expressing
sadness at the departure of a loved one.

The piece begins with the statement of the pentatonic melody in its regular form followed
by sections consisting of variations of that melody. The first variation includes a fast
pace motion of sixteenth notes interrupted by the second part of the melody. The
Larghetto section is played in a slower tempo with the melody inverted from its original
form first played by the oboe, then the flutes, alto saxophones and horns, and finally the
trumpet. Next, the melody returns in the style of a march, followed by an augmentation
ohime in which the melodic material has been stretched out. Finally, the piece ends in a
fast tempo beginning with percussion, followed by the vibraphonist and woodwinds
presenting the second half of the melody as a round while the brass abruptly enters with
the first half of the melody played as a hemiola, written in triple meter, however, felt in
duple meter.
Edwin Eugene Bagley (1857-1922), born in Craftsbury, Vermont, began his performing
career at age nine as a vocalist and comedian touring the United States with the Leavitt's
Then, he played cornet with the Swiss Bellringers and the Blaisdell's
Bellringers.

�Orchestra of Concord, New Hampshire. In 1880, Bagley moved to Boston and continued
to perform on cornet, as well as the trombone, with several ensembles including the
Boston Symphony Orchestra.

National Emblem (1906) has been described as "one of the most 'perfect' marches."
After an explosive introduction, Bagley opens the march with the first twelve notes of
The Star Spangled Banner arranged in duple rather than triple time. The trio section
contains one of the most memorable melodies introduced by the robust sound of the low
brass section and followed by the high winds. Frederick Fennell, former conductor of the
Eastman School of Music Wind Ensemble, described what this march has meant to him:
"This marvelous march .never fails to lift my spirit to the loftiest heights of inner joy,
outer physical exhilaration, and ultimate personal fulfillment. On some occasions I have
felt that knowing it, loving it-being able to listen to it any time being played by the band
in my head-was my whole reason to be alive. It is a march for marching; sit-down
performances of it should continue to march, for that is its heritage-music for the feet, not
for the head-and it is unmistakably music for the spirit!"
Notes by K. Metaxas
Alfred Reed (1921-2005) is one of America's most frequently performed composers
with over 250 published works for concert band, wind ensemble, orchestra, chorus,
chamber groups. His music career began in the New York School of Music and he was
later offered a scholarship to study composition with Paul Y artin. Reed wrote many
compositions and arrangements for band during his service with the Army Air Corps in
World War IL When composer Roy Harris and Reed's commanding officer both ordered
him to produce a work for radio broadcast honoring the friendship between the Russian
and American people they gave him a two week deadline. In eleven days, Reed produced
Russian Christmas Music the work that launched his career as a composer of music for
winds. Following the war, he studied with Vittorio Giannini at Julliard but left to work as
a staff composer and arranger at both NBC and ABC. Bernard Kalban of Charles H.
Hansen Music Corporation asked Reed to write music for young wind players thus
beginning his long association with the school band movement. In 1953, Reed accepted a
position as conductor of the Baylor University Orchestra and while there he completed
his bachelor' s and a master' s degree. In 1956, he returned to work at Hansen. In 1966, he
took a position at the University of Miami in order to have time to devote to his writing.
Over the next 27 years he composed most of his well-known works for band including:
The Hounds ofSpring, Othello, Music for 'Hamlet, and Armenian Dances (part I and 11).
In 1981, he was invited to Japan by Sony's Toshio Akiyama to conduct and record with
the Tokyo Kosei Wind Orchestra. This led to a long association with TKWO and other
Japanese music organizations. His work took him to 49 states and 18 countries.

Three Revelations from the Lotus Sutra (1982-84) is an attempt to realize in music
three different states of man's soul in his quest for ultimate perfection. The first
movement, Awakening (To Awaken in the Light of the Universe) portrays the vastness
and richness of the experience of the human mind on expanding its field of view from the
narrow confines of daily life to the contemplation of, and merging with, the entire
universe. The second movement, Contemplation,(To Contemplate the Depths of the
Soul), represents a turning away of the mind from the 'outer' to the 'inner' universe .. .
the attempt to fathom the limitless possibilities of the human consciousness in its quest
for identity, to answer the eternal questions beginning with the word "Why?" The third
and final movement, Rejoicing, (Rejoicing in the Beauty of Peace), depicts the realization
that, while on earth, peace is not merely the absence of war, destruction , pain and
suffering, buit a thing of beauty in and of itself . . . and an occasion for heartfelt rejoicing
on the part of all men, everywhere , who share the same eternal quest as true brothers.

�The suite was commissioned by, and is reverently dedicated to, Rissho Kosei-kai on the
occasion of the 77th birthday of its founder and president, the Reverend Nikkyo Niwano.
Rissho Kosei-kai, sponsor of the world-famous Tokyo Kasei Wind Orchestra, is an
organization of Buddhist laymen devoted to the effort of perfecting man's personality on
the basis of the true meaning of Buddhism. Central to the purpose of this movement is the
body of doctrine assembled from the teachings of Buddha, called the Lotus Sutra, the
Absolute Truth, termed the "Wonderful Law." The third movement was premiered by the
TKWO in 1982 at Reverend Niwano's birthday celebration with the composer
conducting. The complete work was first performed in 1984 by TKWO under Frederick
Fennell.
