Taking Thomas Hardy's short story as its starting point, we are transported to the present for a contemporary take on the novella which explores the power the mind can have over that person's actions. A closed door sparks an obsession so strong that the boundaries between reality and fantasy begin to blur.Ella and her high-finance husband Stephen rent a room in a holiday home on the coast, owned by Susan. Ella discovers that a locked room in the house is rented by a poet - Ben Pascoe - whose work holds a deep fascination for her. The room is held for Pascoe, though he visits rarely.Ella's obsession with Pascoe grows in parallel with the progress of Stephen's biggest City deal. She begins by imagining the poet's voice as she reads his work, but this quickly grows to fantasised encounters with Pascoe in his locked room. Stephen returns from the City and makes love to Ella, but it is not him she wishes for. We see the real Pascoe only once, with Susan.As Stephen's financial dreams are realised and Ella's fantasy consumes her, she learns of Pascoe's death. Despite her changed circumstances, Ella chooses to stay in her new world. / Opéra

At First Light was commissioned by Eric Bruskin a resident of Philadelphia USA in memory of his mother. Eric had a longstanding enthusiasm for my work and I was touched to be the person he approached for a task which is both a privilege and a daunting responsibility. In a sense no music can ever measure up to the weight of love or the hope of consolation vested in it under such circumstances – but in memory I carry the deaths of both my own parents and I was able to draw upon that. Eric’s fondness for my Cello Sonata (itself written in memoriam) led him to ask that I include a solo ‘cello part in the new work – but his attachment also to my polyphonic sacred choral writing meant that he wanted a centrepiece which would be both a showcase of that approach and the celebration of a life well lived. Therefore the seven movements of At First Light arrange themselves as a series of slow meditations surrounding an exuberant 9-minute motet in which the lamenting cello falls temporarily silent. Eric’s Jewish faith meant that approaching an agnostic humanist brought up within the Anglican tradition was hardly free of problems! Gradually though I was able to win his approval for a collated mosaic of texts. This embraces some liturgical Latin (necessary for the motet) as the shared preserve of broad western culture in general but balances it with a secular approach to loss celebration remembrance and the many shades of our mourning those whom we see no longer. Eric was adamant that he did not want the title Requiem; but what has emerged is still a form of semi-secular Requiem in all but name taking its title instead from a phrase in the poem by Thomas Blackburn set as the third movement. This seemed to suggest succinctly how the loss of one very close to us is an awakening into an unfamiliar world where everything is changed. Following the exuberant central movement the texts by the Lebanese-born Kahlil Gibran and the US Kentuckian poet Wendell Berry first address the departed loved one directly then place us within an imaginary funeral cortège where the perennial and universal in human experience become personal without subscribing explicitly to any particular faith (or lack of it). The final text of all is a translation of a Hebraic prayer requested and provided by Eric Bruskin which serves to mirror its Latin counterpart heard at the outset. Throughout the lamenting cello represents a commentary on the experience articulated in the text. It evokes and in a sense tries to embrace and sanctify the individual existential journeys of the bereft as they in turn seek to make their own sense of what the short-lived Second World War poet Alun Lewis called ‘the unbearable beauty of the dead’ (movement 5). In a modern world hostage to ever greater menace displacement bloodshed and anguish I hope fervently that this music not only brings a measure of solace to the person who commissioned it but also makes its own small contribu

Par BOESMANS PHILIPPE. Quinze ans après Julie, Philippe Boesmans retrouve Aix-en-Provence. Trois ans après Au monde, il retrouve Joël Pommerat, dont il met en musique le Pinocchio, adapté du roman de Collodi. Dans cette parabole initiatique, la marionnette est non seulement confrontée à sa propre méchanceté, mais surtout à la vilenie du monde. Devenu petit garçon, il ira heureusement à l'école et au concert : la rédemption par la culture. Les scènes se succèdent rapidement, brèves séquences racontées par un directeur de troupe ambulante. Il faut tout le savoir-faire virtuose du compositeur belge pour assumer cet enchaînement. Et son sens du théâtre qui, une fois de plus, fait merveille : le temps des deux parties, qu'inaugure et achève une photo de classe où les élèves ont des têtes d'âne, passe très vite. Revenu depuis longtemps des dogmes et des systèmes, Boesmans, à 81 ans, n'a plus rien à prouver, ne dédaignant ni la tonique ni la dominante - de quoi faire hurler les bouléziens... Mais son langage n'a rien à voir avec un néoclassicisme stravinskien - passionnante comparaison avec le Rake's Progress donné à quelques jours d'intervalle ! Fidèle à lui-même, il revisite toute la tradition occidentale, du choral à l'air à vocalises, de la musique savante à la musique populaire, à travers un subtil maillage où passent les ombres des grands anciens, où l'on va de l'allusion délicate à la citation ironique du 'Connais-tu le pays' de Mignon d'Ambroise Thomas. Rien d'éclaté, pourtant : tout se tient. Et il suffit d'un ensemble de dix-neuf musiciens pour déployer des sonorités irisées ou rutilantes, qui collent au texte et à une histoire qu'on pourrait suivre les yeux clos. Pinocchio est à Boesmans ce que L'Enfant est à Ravel. Magnifique production de Joël Pommerat, aussi forte qu'épurée, plongée dans une obscurité qu'animent la vidéo de Renaud Rubiano, consubstantielle à la scénographie, et les lumières oniriques d'Eric Soyer. La fantasmagorie du conte sublime le réalisme parfois cruel de certaines scènes : rien ne pèse ou ne pose. Les personnages sont d'une étonnante vérité, du gamin tête à claques à l'instituteur chahuté, des meurtriers tortionnaires à la fée tutélaire. / Date parution : 2020-08-21/ Répertoire / 6 Solistes et Orchestre
