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 cortege, 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
contribution to bailing
out the sinking ship of
humanity.

In his
youth, when still
searching for his own
personal style, Debussy
composed a series of
short, stand-alone piano
pieces. He took
traditional genres such
as the ballade, mazurka,
nocturne and waltz, but
in general used each of
them just once, as if
trying them out. One such
was the “Valse
romantiqueâ€,
published by Choudens of
Paris in 1891 and thus
written at the same time
as his famous piano works
“Two
Arabesques†and the
“Suite
bergamasqueâ€. This
charming waltz is of
moderate difficulty and
thus ideal either as a
pedagogical piece or for
concert performance. Our
collected volume
“Debussy: Piano
Pieces†(HN 404)
offers numerous other
short piano pieces of
modest difficulty for
those who find that this
practical, stand-alone
edition awakens in them a
desire for more.

Kai
Nieminen's Northern
Spells for solo guitar is
a unique combination of
Northern mystique, nature
and age-old rituals. The
mood of the opening
Invocation and Spell is
shrouded in mystery
dotted with moments of
brightness, and
chant-like rhythmic
passages. As its name
suggests, the second
movement, Atmosfera, is
atmospheric and airy,
reiterating a melody that
creates an image of
something ancient and
distant. The recurring
pentatonic figures in the
closing Charm conjure
forth a rhythmic and at
times even lithe
conclusion.
Strong contrasts are one
of the hallmarks of
Nieminen's music, and
this work is no
exception. The guitarist
must have a consummate
ability to extract
specific tones and
effects from his or her
instrument in order to
bring out the required
nuances and sometimes
even ritualistic moods.
One special feature of
the work is the damped
sound made in the bass by
gently pressing the
string with the left-hand
finger near the nut. This
produces a muffled,
mystic, drum-like sound
that has to be rounded,
altogether resonant and
ear-catching. Throughout
all the movements and
moods of this work, the
player has to choose the
timbres very carefully.
The performance must be
as imposing and
multidimensional as the
arctic nature that allows
Northern spells to
reawaken in the
present-day world.

Programme
note
Morpheus in the Greek
mythology is the most
powerful of the Oneroi,
the gods of dreams. He is
the one who sends us our
dreams and he may appear
to us within the dreams
in disguise.
Analogous to the logic
of dreams, in
Morpheus
everything is interwoven,
as chains of associations
appear to logically lead
us from one line of
thought to another.
Everything seems
strangelyfamiliar. But
the logic is treacherous
and we already feel, it
may only be valid within
the dream. Nothing that
appears similar is
actually ever really the
same.
Half
awakening, we struggle to
hold on to a vanishing
world we felt we were on
the verge of
understanding, but which
we already know will
eventually escape us when
we fully awake.
