Britten's
arrangements of
Schubert's The Trout (op
32/D550) for small
orchestra, and Schumann's
Spring Night (op 39 no
12) for chamber
orchestra, dating from
1942, are settings of
anonymous English
translations. The new
edition includes the
original German words
(Schubart, Eichendorff),
as many performers and
audiences will prefer the
songs in the original
language. In his preface,
Nicholas Clark, Librarian
at the Britten-Pears
Foundation, speculates on
why the songs were set in
English and on the
possibility that the
translator was Peter
Pears, commenting that
“the English
language settings allowed
[Britten] to edge away
from existing versions of
the songs, to assist him
in imprinting his own
unique mark on both
works.” The Trout
is scored for 2 clarinets
& strings; Spring Night
for flute, oboe, 2
clarinets, bassoon, 2
horns, 2 trumpets,
trombone, triangle, harp
(or piano) and
strings.
