Translation: Engl. (S. Wadsworth) (1988) / (Norbert Rubesaat) (1993); French (Jean-Pierre Wurtz) (1997) Place and time: Jail Munchen-Stadelheim, in the hour before the execution on 22nd February 1943 Characters: Sophie Scholl (soprano) / Hans Scholl (baritone or tenor) >>Weisse Rose<< (White Rose) was the name of the resistance group to which Hans and Sophie Scholl belonged. Udo Zimmermann's composition is characterized by the varying structure of its scenes: dramatic, visionary scenes, e.g. the remembered wartime experiences on the front, Sophie's anxiety about the removal of the children and the wish to see her parents one last time, contrast with contemplative monologues that are intended to provide insights into the individual's particular situation. The composer interweaves into the structure of the piece dream sequences with sudden bursts of anxiety that are not triggered by the execution that is about to take place but by the consequences of one's own actions. The result is a deliberate fusion of the various parts into one another. More than 100 different productions prove that the topic is as important as ever and that the work is both artistically rewarding and practicable. Udo Zimmermann About the piece Two young people, the siblings Sophie and Hans Scholl, are in a prison cell, one hour before they are to be put to death by their fascist executioners. Their christian convictions and sense of responsibility gave them the courage to put up resistance, resistance against the lies, the contempt for humanity and all human values. Sophie and Hans Scholl took their stand in the full knowledge that they were taking a deadly risk. They would simply not have been able to live with their feelings of shame had they not grasped the chance of fighting for what they believed in, even though it was a dangerous thing to do. Memories of past events, doubts, hopes and fears, justification of deeds and an acceptance of death, all these things happen and move in, and between, these two people during this representation of the hour before death. The orchestra provides a psycho-physical shorthand of their inner mental state. Musical effects and gestures search for their identity in human behaviour. The moments of stillness and silence provide moments of musical tension, which are just as powerful as the eruptions of fear and desperation.

The 28-year-old Jon Lord, with no experience at all of writing for orchestra, composed this work in only three months in the lead-up to its premiere with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and Malcolm Arnold. It was his first workfor orchestra, launching his career as both a classical composer and a founding member of Deep Purple. It is notably rich in youthful invention, sound in structure, and sophisticated in craftsmanship. It broke new ground at thetime, and seems only to have grown in stature across the intervening years. The full score appears here in print for the first time ever, meticulously edited by the composer’s long-time musical collaborator Paul Mann.

De 28 jaar oude Jon Lord, die nog geen enkele ervaring had in het schrijven voor orkest, componeerde dit werk in slechts drie maanden in de aanloop naar de première met het Royal Philharmonic Orchestra en Malcolm Arnold. Hetbetreft dus zijn eerste compositie voor orkest en hij lanceerde hiermee zijn parallelle carrières als componist en medeoprichter van Deep Purple. Het werk is rijk aan jeugdige vindingrijkheid, goed opgebouwd en met vakmanschapgemaakt. Het was destijds baanbrekend en het lijkt in de loop der jaren alleen maar aan zeggingskracht te hebben gewonnen. De volledige partituur verschijnt nu voor het eerst op papier, in een consciëntieuze bewerking doorPaulMann, met wie de componist op muzikaal gebied al jaren samenwerkt.

Jon Lord, gé de 28 ans et sans aucune expérience en composition pour orchestre, écrit cette œuvre en seulement trois mois l’approche de sa première avec le Royal Philharmonic Orchestra dirigé par Malcolm Arnold. Cette premièreœuvre pour orchestre lança ses carrières parallèles de compositeur et membre fondateur de Deep Purple. Elle est particulièrement riche en invention juvénile, solide en structure et raffinée en artisanat musical. Innovante lors desa première, cette œuvre ne semble que gagner en stature depuis lors. La partition complète apparaît ici en publication pour la première fois, en édition méticuleusement préparée par le collaborateur du compositeurdepuislongtemps, Paul Mann.

Maurice Ravel (1875-1937) wrote the first of his CINQ MÉLODIES POPULAIRES GRECQUES (Five Greek Folk Melodies) in 1904 at the urgent request of Pierre Aubry, who wished to illustrate a lecture he was giving on Greek folksong. Initially given five folksongs from which to choose, Ravel supplied a piano accompaniment for them in only thirty-six hours. Having impressed those who supplied the original five, three more were produced, which Ravel also quickly set to piano accompaniment, in a style imitative of the Mediterranean lands, but remaining distinctly French in its execution. The five melodies in this collection were selected from those eight. Ravel had started orchestrating all five as well, completing two, leaving Manuel Rosenthal to complete the remaining three. Songs in the collection: I. Le Réveil de la Mariée (Wake Up, My Dear), II. Là-bas, vers l'église (Out There, Where the Church Tower), III. Quel galant m'est comparable (Which Gallant Can Compare With Me?), IV. Chanson des cueilleuses de lentisques (Song of the Lentisk Gatherers), and V. Tout gai! (Be Gay!). The Ravel/Rosenthal orchestrations have been edited by Clinton Nieweg in an edition available from E.F. Kalmus.
