'LIST ENING EARTH' is a symphonic drama, a one- movement composition in four parts based on the work by two writers, Joseph Addison (1672-1719) and W.H.Auden (1907-1973). Joseph Addison is not particularly well known; he was English, a classical scholar, essayist, poet and politician, but one of his hymns was used by Benjamin Britten. in his setting of a Thomas Tallis canon.
The hymn is singularly beautiful and being a composer always inspired by extramusical stimuli such as poems, nature, paintings, I was immediately convinced when I carne across the Addison hymn, that here was exactly what I wanted to use as my major source of inspiration for this piece, commissioned by and written for The Berlin Philharmonic.
I don't refer to the hymn in its entirety, but have chosen the following 3 excerpts, all acting as mottos for the first three sections of the piece, thus turning the piece into a straightforward tonepoem in the classical.

Palle Mikkelborg GOING TO PIECES WITHOUT FALLING APART 2002 for violin, harpe og strygereTilegnet Elise Batnes og Helen DaviesForord l Programnote En solful d morgentur i Melbourne bragte mig forbi en boghandel der specialiserede sig i spiritualbooks, og i vinduet faldt mine ojne pa et citat som ojeblikkeligt ramte mig folelsesmaessigtstaerkt- og jeg folte at jeg havde fundet titlen pa den komposition jeg pa tankeplan allerede vari gang med. Citatet lod:going to pieces ... without falling apartTre temaer og relaterede skalaer, baseret pa henholdsvis Elise Batnes', Helen Davies' og BergenKammerensembles navne, har vaeret afgorende for dele af tonesproget, og forekommer badeielose-up og mere douche i kompositionens syv hovedafsnit. Det barnlige, det enkle, det her-og-nu naive, det umiddelbare, kom til at spille en vigtig rolleunder arbejdet. Ikke fordi selve mit tonesprog er saerligt meget anderledes end ellers (hvordanskulle det ogsa kunne blive det?), men formuleringen: at go to pieces fik mig til at taenke pa atblive som barn pa ny, atter at vaere u-bange, at turde tro pa det enkle.Udover denne- i bedste betydning- enkle inspiration er onsket at kompositionens kurve kanopleves som en mulig meditiations-rejse: i starten en tro pa egen ro, langsomt breder uroensig, og i lystfulde glimt ser man sig selv danse en rituel dans, med andehuller her og der: ogfristelsen til at rive forhaenget vaek og go to pieces, og angsten for maske at miste sig selv undervejs,breder sig. Dog, til sidst erkender man at det var rejsen vaerd, og at man heller ikke denne gangfaldt apart, men kan se frem mod atter at vise livet sin respekt ved spirituelt fuldstaendigt at givesig hen, dog vel vidende at livet merciless & merciful, med kaerlig hand villade diggo to pieces ... without falling apartMen selvklart er mit egentlige onske: at man blot lader musikken leve sit eget ordlose liv - atlytteren har sin egen rejse. Palle Mikkelborg.

Prog ramme Note Poul Ruders WIND-DRUMMING WIND-DRUMMING was written in 1979 on a commission from The Danish Percussion Ensemble. The piece is a clash of two kinds of sound-associations, the mystic, exotic impact of Latin-American drumming, and the more well dressed reputation of Western concert-instruments, in this case a wind-quintet (w. electric flute). The two instrumental camps either melt into one soft humming ritual or are split wide apart, the winds tearing their way through the undergrowth of rainforest-drumming. There is more than one way of getting on to WIND-DRUMMING: obviously it is about the confrontation of two incongruent ways of living, a lament on the damage done tothe tropical rainforests of the world by modern civilisation. One can hear it plainly as a direct rhythm-show, a downright number or a joyous homage to the most exiting kind of folkloristic music at all: the carnal spell of the Brazilian Samba. Poul Ruders.
