On
letting go(Concerning the
selection of the texts)
In the selection of the
texts, I have allowed
myself to be motivated
and inspired by the
concept of 'letting go'.
This appears to me to be
one of the essential
aspects of dying, but
also of life itself. We
humans cling far too
strongly to successful
achievements, whether
they have to do with
material or ideal values,
or relationships of all
kinds. We cannot and do
not want to let go,
almost as if our life
depended on it. As we
will have to practise the
art of letting go at the
latest during our hour of
death, perhaps we could
already make a start on
this while we are still
alive. Tagore describes
this farewell with very
simple but strikingly
vivid imagery: 'I will
return the key of my
door'. I have set this
text for tenor solo. Here
I imagine, and have
correspondingly noted in
a certain passage of the
score, that the
protagonist finds himself
as though 'in an ocean'
of voices in which he is
however not drowning, but
immersing himself in
complete relaxation. The
phenomenon of letting go
is described even more
simply and tersely in
Psalm 90, verse 12: 'So
teach us to number our
days, that we may apply
our hearts unto wisdom'.
This cannot be expressed
more plainly.I have begun
the requiem with a solo
boy's voice singing the
beginning of this psalm
on a single note, the
note A. This in effect
says it all. The work
comes full circle at the
culmination with a repeat
of the psalm which
subsequently leads into a
resplendent 'lux
aeterna'. The
intermediate texts of the
Requiem which highlight
the phenomenon of letting
go in the widest spectrum
of colours originate on
the one hand from the
Latin liturgy of the
Messa da Requiem (In
Paradisum, Libera me,
Requiem aeternam, Mors
stupebit) and on the
other hand from poems by
Joseph von Eichendorff,
Hermann Hesse,
Rabindranath Tagore and
Rainer Maria Rilke.All
texts have a distinctive
positive element in
common and view death as
being an organic process
within the great system
of the universe, for
example when Hermann
Hesse writes: 'Entreiss
dich, Seele, nun der
Zeit, entreiss dich
deinen Sorgen und mache
dich zum Flug bereit in
den ersehnten Morgen'
['Tear yourself way , o
soul, from time, tear
yourself away from your
sorrows and prepare
yourself to fly away into
the long-awaited
morning'] and later: 'Und
die Seele unbewacht will
in freien Flugen
schweben, um im
Zauberkreis der Nacht
tief und tausendfach zu
leben' ['And the
unfettered soul strives
to soar in free flight to
live in the magic sphere
of the night, deep and
thousandfold']. Or Joseph
von Eichendorff whose
text evokes a distant
song in his lines: 'Und
meine Seele spannte weit
ihre Flugel aus. Flog
durch die stillen Lande,
als floge sie nach Haus'
['And my soul spread its
wings wide. Flew through
the still country as if
homeward bound.']Here a
strong romantically
tinged occidental
resonance can be detected
which is however also
accompanied by a
universal spirit going
far beyond all cultures
and religions. In the
beginning was the sound
Long before any sort of
word or meaningful phrase
was uttered by vocal
chords, sounds,
vibrations and tones
already existed. This
brings us back to the
music. Both during my
years of study and at
subsequent periods, I had
been an active
participant in the world
of contemporary music,
both as percussionist and
also as conductor and
composer. My early scores
had a somewhat
adventurous appearance,
filled with an abundance
of small black dots: no
rhythm could be too
complicated, no register
too extreme and no
harmony too dissonant. I
devoted myself intensely
to the handling of
different parameters
which in serial music
coexist in total
equality: I also studied
aleatory principles and
so-called minimal music.I
subsequently emigrated
and took up residence in
Spain from where I
embarked on numerous
travels over the years to
India, Africa and South
America. I spent repeated
periods during this time
as a resident in
non-European countries.
This meant that the
currents of contemporary
music swept past me
vaguely and at a great
distance. What I instead
absorbed during this
period were other
completely new cultures
in which I attempted to
immerse myself as
intensively as possible.I
learned foreign languages
and came into contact
with musicians of all
classes and styles who
had a different cultural
heritage than my own: I
was intoxicated with the
diversity of artistic
potential.Nevertheless,
the further I distanced
myself from my own
Western musical heritage,
the more this returned
insistently in my
consciousness.The scene
can be imagined of
sitting somewhere in the
middle of the Brazilian
jungle surrounded by the
wailing of Indians and
out of the blue being
provided with the
opportunity to hear
Beethoven's late string
quartets: this can be a
heart-wrenching
experience, akin to an
identity crisis. This
type of experience can
also be described as
cathartic. Whatever the
circumstances, my
'renewed' occupation with
the 'old' country would
not permit me to return
to the point at which I
as an audacious young
student had maltreated
the musical parameters of
so-called contemporary
music. A completely
different approach would
be necessary: an
extremely careful
approach, inching my way
gradually back into the
Western world: an
approach which would
welcome tradition back
into the fold, attempt to
unfurl the petals and
gently infuse this
tradition with a breath
of contemporary
life.Although I am aware
that I will not unleash a
revolution or scandal
with this approach, I am
nevertheless confident
as, with the musical
vocabulary of this
Requiem, I am travelling
in an orbit in which no
ballast or complex
structures will be
transported or intimated:
on the contrary, I have
attempted to form the
message of the texts in
music with the naivety of
a 'homecomer'. Harald

Score. This work was
commissioned by the Royal
Philharmonic Orchestra.
It was first performed on
13th May 1998 London.
This piece is based on a
genuine old tune
'Maxwell's Strathspey'
which the composer found
in an 1824 collection of
Scottish melodies, and
which unfolds at the
start of the piece on
solo cello. Variations
and a bold up-tempo to
the quick dance we know
as a reel ultimately
yield to the magic that
has been promised right
at the start: the
northern lights take over
at the end of the piece.
Its inspiration comes
from a walk to a
community event in Hoy
Hall, during which Davies
saw the lights in the sky
pulsing in and out of
time with the sounds
coming from the hall.
Duration 12 minutes.

The 1712
Overture stands out in
P.D.Q. Bach's oeuvre for
two reasons, among
others: it is by far the
most programmatic
instrumental piece among
those by the minimeister
of Wein-am-Rhein so far
unearthed, and 2) its
discovery has led to a
revelation about the
composer's father, Johann
Sebastian Bach, that has
exploded like a bombshell
on the usually serene
musicological landscape.
The overture is based on
an anecdote told to
P.D.Q. Bach by a cousin,
Peter Ulrich. Since P.U.
Bach lived in Dudeldorf,
only a few miles down the
road from Wein-am-Rhein,
he was P.D.Q.'s closest
relative, and he was, in
fact, one of the few
members of the family who
was on speaking terms
with P.D.Q. The story,
related to P.D.Q.
(fortunately for us
posterity types) in a
letter, may be summarized
thus: The town of
Dudeldorf was founded by
two brothers, Rudi and
Dieter Dudel, early in
the 18th century. Rudi
remained mayor of the
newborn burg for the rest
of his long life, but
Dieter had a dream of
starting a musicians'
colony, an entire city
devoted to music, which
dream, he finally
decided, could be
realized only in the New
World. In 1712, he and
several other bagpipers
sailed to Boston, never
to return to Germany.
(Henceforth, Rudi became
known as der deutscher
Dudel and Dieter as the
Yankee Dudel).
Unfortunately, the head
of the Boston Musicians'
Guild had gotten wind of
Dudel's plans, and
Wilhelm Wiesel (pron.
VEE-zle), known none too
affectionately around
town as Wiesel the
Weasel, was not about to
share what few gigs there
were in colonial America
with more foreigners and
outside agitators. He and
his cronies were on hand
to meet Dudel's boat when
it pulled into Boston
Harbor; they intended to
prevent the newcomers'
disembarkation, but Dudel
and his companions
managed to escape to the
other side of the bay in
a dinghy, landing with
just enough time to rent
a carriage and horses
before hearing the sound
of The Weasel and his
men, who had had to come
around the long way. The
Germans headed West, with
the Bostonians in furious
pursuit. soon the city
had been left far behind,
and by midnight so had
the pursuers; Dieter
Dudel decided that it was
safe for him and his men
to stop and sleep until
daybreak. When they
awoke, they found that
they were in a beautiful
landscape of low,
forested mountains and
pleasant fields, warmed
by the brilliant morning
sun and serenaded by an
entrancing variety of
birds. Here, Dudel
thought, her is where I
will build my colony. The
immigrants continued down
the road at a leisurely
pace until they came upon
a little church, all by
itself in the
countryside, from which
there suddenly emanated
the sounds of a pipe
organ. At this point, the
temptation to quote from
P.U. Bach's letter to
P.D.Q. cannot be
resisted: They went
inside and, after
listening to the glorious
music for a while,
introduced themselves to
the organist. And who do
you think it was? Are you
ready for this -- it was
your old man! Hey, no
kidding -- you know, I'm
sure, that your father
was the guy to get when
it came to testing new
organs, and whoever had
that one in Massachusetts
built offered old
Sebastian a tidy sum to
go over there and check
it out. The unexpected
meeting with J.S. Bach
and his sponsors was
interrupted by the sound
of horse hooves, as the
dreaded Wiesel and his
men thundered on to the
scene. They had been
riding all night,
however, and they were no
spring chickens to start
with, and as soon as they
reached the church they
all dropped, exhausted,
to the ground. The elated
Germans rang the church
bells and offered to buy
everyone a beer at the
nearest tavern. There
they were taught, and
joined in singing, what
might be called the
national anthem of the
New World. The melody of
this pre-revolutionary
patriotic song is still
remembered (P.D.Q. Bach
quotes it, in the bass
instruments, near the end
of the overture), but is
words are now all but
forgotten: Freedom, of
thee we sing, Freedom
e'er is our goal; Death
to the English King, Long
live Rock and Ross. The
striking paucity of
biographical references
to Johann Sebastian Bah
during the year 1712 can
now be explained: he was
abroad for a significant
part of that year,
testing organs in the
British Colonies. That
this revelation has not
been accepted as fact by
the musicological
establishment is no
surprise, since it means
that a lot of books would
have to be rewritten. The
members of that
establishment haven't
even accepted the
existence of P.D.Q. Bach,
one of whose major works
the 1712 Overture
certainly is. It is also
a work that shows
Tchaikowsky up as the
shameless plagiarizer
that some of us have
always known he was. The
discovery of this awesome
opus was made possible by
a Boston Pops Centennial
Research Commission; the
first modern performance
took place at the opening
concert of the 100th
anniversary season of
that orchestra, under the
exciting but authentic
direction of John
Williams.

Jeder
Kultur wohnt eine Moral
inne, welche die
menschlichen Handlungen
bewertet und in zwei
Kategorien einteilt:
gut/schlecht,
positiv/negativ usw. Der
Titel HARTO - zu deutsch:
satt, uberdrussig -
bezieht sich auf das
Unbehagen, das diese
dichotomische Auffassung
hervorruft: eine
Auffassung, die
gleichwohl in uns
verwurzelt ist und gerade
darum den Prozess
Wahrnehmung Ausserung
Kenntnis beeinflusst, ihm
zugehort. Tatsachlich
wird das musikalische
Phanomen dualistisch
konzipiert: Klang =
Ton/Gerausch;
Tonhohenanordnung =
Konsonanz/Dissonanz,
tonal/atonal; Struktur =
symmetrischer Bau
(Vordersatz/Nachsatz),
das scholastische Ideal
des Gleichgewichts, das
seinerseits eine
Symmetrieachse zur
Voraussetzung hat. Diese
Strukturierung des
Materials ergibt sich aus
dem fast
ausschliesslichen
Interesse des Komponisten
an den expressiven
Moglichkeiten des
musikalischen Apparats.
Die Motivation des
Komponierens aus dem
Drang, etwas Inneres
ausdrucken zu mussen,
erscheint mir jedoch
heute der Grundlage zu
entbehren und folglich
auch unnotig. Die
letztliche
Daseinsberechtigung
dieser Motivation liegt
in der dualistischen
Vorstellung, die beim
Menschen zwischen Leib
und Seele unterscheidet.
Ein Bluff, Produkt
kleinlicher
Disputiersucht. Eine
Analyse auf der Basis
empirischer Logik stellt
fest, dass es keine Seele
gibt, sondern ein
Nervensystem mit
bestimmten Fahigkeiten,
und dass nichts
auszudrucken ist, weil
Musik die Empfindungen
des Komponisten nicht
wiedergeben kann. sondern
lediglich unbestimmte
Eindrucke im Horer
erzeugt. Da aber jede
bewusste Wahrnehmung
Erkenntnis ist, ware es
nun die Aufgabe des
Komponisten, Musik mit
diesem Ziel, das heisst:
Musik als
Erkenntnismittel zu
schaffen. Dies alles ist
der Versuch, die
Erkenntnistheorie von
David Hume und anderen,
spateren Epistemologen
auf Musik anzuwenden. Der
Beitrag des Empirismus
zur Erkenntnistheorie
wurde zwar in der
wissenschaftlichen
Forschung genutzt, fand
jedoch in der Kunst kaum,
in der Musik keinerlei
Beachtung. Warum?
Vielleicht, weil in der
Musik noch immer der
naive, >>expressive<<
Komponist vorherrscht,
den das elitar-bourgeoise
Publikum verlangt und dem
es applaudiert. Der
Einwand, dass Kunst immer
bourgeois war und es
weiterhin ist, gibt zwar
keine Losung, sollte aber
auch nicht unterschatzt
werden. Ich habe HARTO in
zwei Teilen konzipiert,
wobei jeder Teil im
Verhaltnis zum anderen
sowohl irgendwie das
gleiche als auch das
Gegenteil darstellt. Der
Grund fur diese
Zweiteilung des Werkes
ist leicht aus dem vorhin
Gesagten abzuleiten. Als
Vorarbeit zur Komposition
habe ich versucht, die
historische dichotomische
Gestaltung des Materials
besonders hervorzuheben,
und zwar durch eine
Potenzierung jener
Aspekte, die diesen
-zweigeteilten<<
Charakter in sich tragen.
Ich habe also den
Zeitverlauf lediglich als
eine Folge von Spannungs-
und
Entspannungs-Einheiten
betrachtet; ich habe
Tonhohen-Anordnungen
verwendet, die
ausschliesslich auf
Symmetrie beruhen; ich
habe zweiteilige
Strukturen aufgebaut,
deren Halften durch eine
Pause mit konstantem Wert
geteilt sind; ich habe -
je nach den Moglichkeiten
des Orchesters - den
Gerausch- oder Tonanteil
des Klanges ubertrieben.
Dieser Gedankengang wurde
im Hinblick darauf
realisiert, neue
Anwendungsmoglichkeiten
zu finden, die fur das
Ziel einer Musik als
Erkenntnismittel von
Nutzen sein
konnen.(Manuel
Hidalgo).

Composer's
Notes: This piece,
written during the winter
months of 2000-2001,
consists of one movement,
Allegro con fuoco, in
which an old score is
revisited, raided and
ravished by its composer.
The earlier music had
been written in the
mid-fifties for a stage
work Maratona di Danza
and for its maker, the
director Luchino
Visconti. Elements from
the older piece reappear
on and off like shadows
under the surface of new
ones, like more or less
vague memories, images of
young people suffering
pain and despair in their
struggle for survival in
a barbaric, pitiless
modern world. My new
composition is a kind of
concerto for very large
symphony orchestra, an
etude on constant and
often rapid musical
changes of mood and
colours, built on a
variety of rhythmic
figures, incessantly and
brutally pushing the
music ahead. Sometimes,
it is as though voices
are weeping, sometimes
crying out loud with
pain, with anxiety, under
the cold hearted pressure
of an overwhelming
violence. Hans Werner
Henze Commissioned on the
occasion of the 50th
anniversary of das neue
werk, Hamburg. Premiered
on 29th June 2001.

Over the
years Janácek’s
uvre has increasingly
received the recognition
it so richly merits and
performances of his works
are becoming more and
more frequent. This
development is, however,
offset by a manuscript
tradition so disorderly
that some of
Janácek’s works
continue, as before, to
be played in versions
which are heavily
adapted, corrupt or
otherwise contrary to the
composer’s
intentions. Thus, a
critical edition of
Janácek’s music
is indispensable for
scholars and performers
alike.
This editon
presents an authentic
printed text based on all
available sources for
each work. In addition to
the musical text, each
volume also contains a
critical report (Czech /
German), a rendition of
deleted or rejected
versions, and a
comprehensive appendix of
facsimiles.
