The castle
is beautiful but
draughty. The king is
visited by double glazing
salesmen who are offering
two free cloaks along
with their special window
units. The king gladly
gives them the work, not
realising the effect the
magic cloaks would have
upon him and subsequently
upon his family and the
rest of his subjects.
This all-year-round play
with seven songs,
optional improvised
music, percussion and
dance, has a strong moral
- that attractive things
are not always what they
seem, and it is the
simple things which bring
joy and peace of mind.

This
volume contains
contrasting works by
Federico Ruiz spanning
quite a large and rich
period of his
compositional output that
goes from his early
Micro-Suite (1971), to
lilting, sweet and
rhythmic Venezuelan
waltzes passing by the
mysterious, intimate, and
intense Nocturno (1994)
plus pieces originally
composed for film, and
theatre. Real eclecticism
in styles, moods and
atmospheres that show
Ruizâ??s talents and
scope.
The
Nocturno is a deep,
intriguing, substantial
piece presenting a
satisfying length which
moves from different
paths of the mind and the
heart written in an
abstract, chromatic
idiom, that does not
dissociate itself from
the Venezuelan waltz and
the joropo. One could
perhaps say that there is
a deconstruction of the
latter. For the
interpretation, the
composer has suggested to
me that it is allowed to
have some flexibility in
the tempo. Ruiz kindly
dedicated it to me, and I
have had the pleasure of
performing it in many
concerts.
Although
all highly expressive,
the Three Venezuelan
Waltzes present in this
collection as well as the
piece titled Aliseo, are
works that are close to
the colourful Venezuelan
folk tradition. Federico
Ruiz had given me two of
them when we first met:
â??Tu Presenciaâ??
(1981) and
â??EloÃsaâ?? (1989)
and then I attended a
performance of the play
â??Office Number Oneâ??
by Miguel Otero Silva
with a fantastic actor,
Elba Escobar in the role
of Carmen Rosa and, I
just fell in love and was
very moved by the
incidental music that I
later discovered, by
reading the programme,
had been written by
Federico Ruiz. Later that
evening, I called him and
asked to please make a
piano score of the
composition, so I could
have the desired piece in
my hands. That is how
â??Carmen Rosaâ?
waltz (1987) came to
exist in a piano
version.
â??Elois
aâ?? is another
Venezuelan waltz with
more jazzy harmonies
where precision in the
rhythm and elegant
playing is also
essential, as it is in
most of his
pieces.
â??Tu
Presenciaâ?? was
dedicated to his mother,
Margarita. It is written
with the structure of the
Venezuelan waltz, which
consists of a nostalgic
subject that leads to a
faster, happier middle
section where the typical
graceful rhythm is given
by the left-hand
accompaniment figure of a
dotted crotchet followed
by a quaver and a
crotchet.
The
craft and magic found in
the five movements of the
Micro-Suite is based on a
dodecaphonic row by Ernst
Krenek. They remind us of
the idiom of the Second
Viennese School. These
real miniatures seem to
tell short stories. The
â??Preludioâ?? is full
of humour. I imagine
dancing figures given by
the jumps all over the
keyboard and extreme
dynamics; the phrases
give the impression of a
conversation with many
questions and answers.
The â??Invenciónâ??
is a kaleidoscopic piece
where the hands mirror
each other. The
â??Passacagliaâ?? is
the longest movement, at
just over a minute where
the prime motif is
repeated three times on
the bass line. For its
construction Federico
Ruiz uses as well the
retrograde and the
retrograde inversion of
the twelve-tone series.
It must be played
expressively with dynamic
contrasts between
pianissimo and louder
events. The
â??Scherzoâ?? has
repetitive motifs of a
minor third in both hands
and the â??Finalâ??
displays virtuosic
passages for the
pianist.

The
earliest and now obsolete
version of this piece
(first performed in
Heidelberg, 1949) was
scored for actors and
orchestra. This revised
version of 1964 has
recast the actors' parts
into roles for singers.In
addition, a scaled-down
orchestration was made to
suit performances in
small theatres. The Magic
Theatre is suitable as
one part of a triptych,
of which A Country Doctor
forms the centre and The
End of a World the third
part.The Magic Theatre
can still be performed
with actors: for a
production given at the
Schiller Theatre in
Berlin, on 30 September
1965 at the Berlin
Festwochen, Henning
Brauel made a version for
a small ensemble designed
to be performed in small
theatres. This version
ensures that the actors'
voices are not drowned
out by the instruments. -

Like few
other theatre worksThe
Magic Flute, A Midsummer
Night's DreamTippett's
first opera creates a
wholly other place, one
where human actions can
be seen as in a tilted
mirror. Since this is
indeed an opera, the
place, or dreamspace, is
conjured by music: by
luminescent music that,
in its flowing abundance,
radiant harmonies and
evocative wind
colourings, represents
the natural world within
which the characters have
to integrate themselves.
The central couple, those
whose marriage is at
first subverted and then
gloriously celebrated,
are Mark and Jenifer: he
a young man of the earth
and the senses, she a
young woman of lofty
spirituality. Each is
only half a person, and
before they can be united
they have to be made
whole, have to find
within themselves an
understanding of the
other. Overseeing their
mythic initiation and
psychic healing are two
Ancients, votaries of a
temple on a wooded
hilltop.As in the Mozart
precedent, which the
composer certainly had in
mind, there is also a
more workaday couple,
Jack and Bella. The other
principals are Jenifer's
businessman father King
Fisher, who wants to stop
the wedding for reasons
of his own, and an
Erda-like seer. There is
also a dancer, Strephon,
leading the exuberant
ballet in which the
orchestra completes the
story of enlightenment
and passion. It is
ultimately a victory of
love and, before love,
self-knowledge.(Paul
Griffiths).

Written for
Moray Welsh whilst still
an undergraduate at York
University. This piece
was completed in
mid-September. Inspired
by Hermann Hesse's
Steppenwolf. A solo
'cello seemed an
appropriate medium for
music which might explore
the character of Harry
Haller, with his desire
for bourgeois comfort and
his strong misanthropic
and suicidal tendencies.
The opening theme
attempts to express this
- melancholy, nostalgic,
a bit Biedermeyer (cf.
Brahms Intermezzi). The
basic theme of the book,
at its simplest, is that
every human personality
consists of hundred of
different personalities -
within every man there
lurks a wolf. Accordingly
the tendency of my piece
is for all its musical
material to become
distorted, either by
thematic transformation
or by changes of timbre.
There are three movements
played without a break.
The first is a character
portrait of the
Steppenwolf. The second
is concerned in the most
general sort of way with
the dance elements in the
novel - Harry's being
taught to dance and
appreciate low 'popular'
music - a tango is
recapitulated in a waltz
and 'Yearning', a popular
song of the time (1927)
is hinted at. The third
movement concerns the
Masked Ball and the Magic
Theatre. Mozart is one of
Hesse's great loves and
he is repeatedly
mentioned in the book.
Inevitably some Mozart
quotes have been worked
in, the most significant
being a reference to The
Magic Flute 'fire and
water' flute theme in the
middle of the second
movement. Long before I
finished the piece, I was
disenchanted with the
work of Hesse. Much of
Steppenwolf I now find
rather embarrassing and
the claims currently made
for Hesse's greatness
seem to me exaggerated.
Since my piece is in no
important sense
programmatically
specific, this change of
heart doesn't really
matter. ~ David
Blake.

John McCabe.
John McCabe's four-act
opera is based on one of
the most popular books
for children. The
composer's invigorating
interpretation of the
magical story by C S
Lewis provides an ideal
vehicle for schools,
children's theatre
groups, choirs and
professional companies
with education
programmes. With only two
adult roles, the Witch
and the Lion (the Witch's
part will need a
professional singer) and
a mixture of solo, chorus
and non-singing
opportunities for
children, this opera will
challenge performers and
enchant audiences.
Production notes are
provided in the
piano/vocal score.
