Looking On Darkness for Accordion solo was composed by Bent Sørensen in 2000. Programme note: It is in the attempt to recreate a lost world without any illusion of its feasibility that we find the Danish composer Bent Sørensen's beautiful and melancholic music. Sørensen one of the most frequently performed contemporary Scandinavian composers has taken the title Looking on Darkness from Shakespeare's Sonnet No. 27. The thematic and intellectually clearly constructed form in which the inherent emotion is centrally placed and which characterises the sonnet also forms the basis of Sørensen'scomposition which is dedicated to Frode Haltli. As in Shakespeare's sonnet the past memory arises in Sørensen's music as it were out of nothing out of the darkness the silence; the concrete rattle of the accordion buttons and the sensitive dripping notes in the opening section vibrate on the borderline between the concrete and the hereafter. Loss and mourning for that which is lost and will never come again flow into the fleeting and poetic tones and meld together; the music oscillates lingers holds tightly to the absence slackens its grip tries again moves carefully onwards like the fragmentary memories in Samuel Beckett's late prose before the sorrowful voice of the piece just as beautiful and unobtrusive withdraws again and leaves us to the silence to what used to be.

Ji?í Laburda, né en Sob?slav en 1931, est un compositeur tchèque dont le style est proche de néo-classicisme, mais qui utilise aussi aleatorism et dodécaphonisme dans son oeuvre importante. Pendant de nombreuses années, il s'est consacré à l'accordéon, a élargi le répertoire pour cet instrument et les oeuvres composées pour accordéon solo ou avec accompagnement. 'Terpsichore' a été écrit par Laburda en 2004 pour un étudiant accordéon jeune. En raison de la danse comme caractère de la musique, la composition a été à juste titre le nom de la muse antique de danse, Terpsichore. Un morceau qui ne manquera pas d'avoir l'effet escompté sur les joueurs et les auditeurs. / Accordéon
