of the piece sets the
scene with danger and
desperation. By m. 6, our
hero is making his way on
horseback to rescue the
fair maiden. This main
melody is developed and
passed around the
ensemble until m. 36, at
which point despair sets
in. The music is rich
with romantic harmonies
and inner lines. Be sure
to bring out these inner
lines to add to the
passion and drama of the
moment. It continues to
build until a thunderous
arrival at m. 49. From
there we return to our
hero, who is now getting
close to the train tracks
to save the fair maiden.
The tension becomes the
highest at m. 61, when we
are still not sure if our
hero will make it in
time. But alas, at m. 68
he swoops in to save the
day and rescue the fair
maiden. Of course, they
live happily ever
after.My hope is that
your ensemble will have
some fun with this style
of music. It was adapted
from an arrangement I
wrote for the new pipe
organ at the Walk Disney
Concert Hall in Los
Angeles. They wanted some
scary train music to show
children how the organ
was used back before
movies had sound. Strings
provide a heightened
sense of drama with this
genre of music.

Sambuca,
which most people know
today as a
licorice-flavored
liqueur, was the name the
Greeks gave to a kind of
sharp, shrill-sounding
harp, of Eastern,
possibly Jewish origin.
The Greeks then gave this
same name to a wooden
flute made from the elder
bush, and in the middle
ages it was also
associated with the viol,
at least to the extent
that the Hurdy-gurdy, an
instrument shaped like a
viol and played by means
of a rotating wheel, was
sometimes called a
Sambuca rotata. Thus, the
word Sambuca is tied up
with the ancestors - in
each case, ancestors of
ow birth, as it were - of
the modern harp, flute,
and viola. Somehow, the
present-day association
with alcohol seems very
meet, in that a certain
objectionable quality
seems to have gone with
the name - in 1545 one
George Ascham wrote, This
I am sure... all maner of
pypes, barbitons,
sambukes... be condemned
of Aristotle. The word
Sambucistria - for a
female Sambuca player -
was used by Plutarch and
others to evoke a feeling
of foreign-inspired
decadence [Grove's
Dictionary of Musical
Instruments, 1984].
Currier's work is truly a
Sambuca sonata. Written
for the three Sambuca
instruments, Currier has
first of all seemingly
endeavoured to make the
harp part particularly
Sambuca-like (i.e., sharp
and shrill) with its many
nail and xylophonic
effects, but more
importantly, has used
musical material that
corresponds to the
low-brow, somewhat
Dionysian, indeed, today
even Bacchanalian
implication of the name -
thus, rock music seems to
inspire a great deal
Currier's work [the
Samba, an appropriately
Bacchanalian Brazilian
Carnival dance, in duple
meter with syncopations,
while apparently having
no etymological
connection to Sambuca,
might seem to be
musically involved, too].
The Sambuca which lies
behind this rather
drunken piece is probably
the only musical
instrument which became a
model for an instrument
of war; one Craxton wrote
in 1489 that Sambuce is
an engyn whiche is made
in manere of a harpe able
to perce a walle. But
whether talking of the
modern liqueur or the
ancient instrument
condemned of Aristotle
and mentioned four times
in the Book of Daniel, it
is a shame that Debussy -
inspired by the Dionysian
side of classical culture
(as in Prelude a
l'apres-midi d'un faune)
- seems to have remained
ignorant Sambuca, a word
which to some extent must
lie behind all works for
this wonderful
instrumentation which he
invented, and which I
might seem to have
striven unconsciously,
equally ignorant, to make
the sole basis of
Currier's work - until,
having completed this
piece, written for
harpist Marie-Pierre
Langlamet, and rummaging
around for a title, I
chanced upon it in an old
dictionary.

Engl
ish comments: My
dedication to the string
instruments has been a
constant throughout my
compositional career and
I knew that sooner or
later the time would come
to compose a concerto for
violin and orchestra.
That moment came in the
autumn of 2002 and after
ten months of
uninterrupted work I
finished it in August of
2003. It is a work
structured similarly to
the traditional
concertos. An important
impetus for the
elaboration of my
concerto was due to the
ill-fated violinist
Ginette Neveu. Her
version of Sibelius'
Concerto has always
stayed with me. For this
reason the first
movement,
Moderato-Allegro, begins
with a contemplative
atmosphere similar to
that of Sibelius'
Concerto in which the
principal thematic ideas
appear tentatively. These
ideas, two rhythmic and
two melodic, are
reaffirmed through a
broad development that
culminates in an
orchestral fullness. A
calm, mysterious passage
recalls the introduction
and after becoming
blurred, three bars burst
in leading to the rapid
section of the movement.
Soloist and orchestra
engage in a dialectic
struggle of a dramatic
nature. The agitation
subsides leaving only a
tranquil and suggestive
clarinet phrase. This
will be taken up by the
soloist who leads up to
the movement's most
dramatic moment playing
an accelerating triplet
figure supported by an
orchestral pedal in
crescendo. From here the
soloist's cadenza emerges
beginning with soft
double notes. It finishes
with an ascending
progression and the
soloist settles into the
high register to elicit
the orchestra's
intervention in a soft
and transfigured
atmosphere. Once
internalised the second
movement, Adagio poco
sostenuto e leggero
begins. It has a solemn
character and opens with
two trumpet calls
answered by the
violoncellos and the
contrabasses. The violin
soloist introduces and
plays two nostalgic
themes, the first in the
low register and the
second, more extensive,
in the middle register.
The soft and delicate
Misterioso e leggero
begins with the violin
singing on high. The
rhythm of the constant
quaver figures gradually
accelerates until the
soloist provokes a
dramatic full orchestra
as in a cadenza. Once
again, the Calmo, in
which the soloist with
less and less orchestral
attire serenely bids
farewell. A rising series
of double stops by the
soloist serves to
initiate the
Finale-Scherzo. In 6/8
rhythm and with the
character of a rondo it
carries us along in a
carefree, virtuosic
ambiance. The principal
motives, brief and
concise, emerge from the
happy, playful theme
presented by the soloist.
With an intricate
progression of rapid
sixths in double stops it
reaches a tense and
somewhat combative
moment. However this
resolves itself in a
diminuendo that the
soloist peacefully takes
up with the notes re-la
to commence the cadenza.
This culminates in a
series of tied notes to
reintroduce the principal
theme. A moment of
melodic suspension serves
as a farewell before the
brief and jovial final
coda. --The

Comentari
os del Espanol: A lo
largo de mi carrera
compositiva mi dedicacion
a los instrumentos de
cuerda ha sido constante
y sabia que, tarde o
temprano, llegaria el
momento de componer un
concierto para violin y
orquesta. Este llego en
otono de 2002 y, tras
diez meses de trabajo
ininterrumpido, lo
termine en agosto de
2003. Se trata de una
obra estructurada de
manera similar a los
conciertos tradicionales.
Un importante impulso a
la elaboracion de mi
concierto lo debo al
recuerdo de la malograda
violinista Ginette Neveu.
Su version del concierto
de Sibelius ha
permanecido siempre
dentro de mi. Por ese
motivo, el primer
movimiento
Moderato-Allegro se
inicia con una atmosfera
contemplativa cercana a
la del mencionado
Concierto, en la que
aparecen cautamente las
principales ideas
tematicas. Con un amplio
desarrollo se llega a un
lleno orquestal en el que
estas ideas -dos ritmicas
y dos melodicas- quedan
reafirmadas. Un pasaje
calmo y misterioso
rememora la introduccion.
Tras desdibujarse,
irrumpen tres compases
que nos llevan a la parte
rapida del movimiento.
Solista y orquesta
establecen un combate
dialectico de caracter
dramatico. La inquietud
desaparece hasta una
tranquila e insinuante
frase del clarinete. Esta
sera recogida por el
solista, quien, a base de
una figuracion de
tresillos cada vez mas
rapidos apoyada por un
pedal de la orquesta in
crescendo, conduce hacia
el momento mas dramatico
del movimiento. De aqui
nace la cadenza del
solista, que se incia con
suaves notas dobles.
Finaliza con una
progresion ascendente y
el solista se coloca en
el registro agudo para
llamar la intervencion de
la orquesta dentro de una
atmosfera suave y
transfigurada.
Interiorizado es el
segundo movimiento Adagio
poco sostenuto e leggero.
Con dos llamadas de las
trompas respondidas por
los violonchelos y
contrabajos inicia el
Adagio de caracter grave.
El violin solista
introduce y canta dos
temas nostalgicos. El
primero en el registro
grave y el segundo, mas
amplio, en el medio.
Inicia el Misterioso e
leggero, de caracter
suave y delicado. Con el
violin cantando en agudo.
La constante figuracion
de corcheas acelerara
poco a poco el ritmo
hasta que el solista a
modo de cadenza provocara
un dramatico lleno
orquestal. De nuevo el
Calmo, donde el solista,
cada vez con menos ropaje
orquestal, se despide
serenamente. Una subida
de dobles cuerdas a cargo
del solista sirve para
iniciar el
Finale-Scherzo. Este, en
ritmo de 6/8 y con
caracter de rondo, nos
transporta en un clima
virtuosistico y
despreocupado. Del tema
alegre y jugueton
presentado por el solista
nacen los principales
motivos, breves y
concisos. Con una
intrincada sucesion de
rapidas sextas en doble
cuerda se llega a un
momento crispado y algo
combativo que, sin
embargo, se resolvera en
un diminuendo que el
solista recoge
apaciblemente con las
notas re-la para inciar
la cadenza. Esta culmina
con un suave rosario de
notas en ligado para
introducir de nuevo el
tema principal. Un
momento de suspension
melodica sirve como
despido antes de la breve
y jovial coda final. La
obra fue estrenada el 23
de septiembre de 2005 en
el Teatre Monumental de
Madrid por la Orquesta
Sinfonica de RTVE con
Markus Placci de solista
y Uwe Mund de director.
