Sibelius
composed this short (only
five minutes long)
Romance in C Op. 42 in
1903; the work was first
performed in Turku in
March 1904. The Romance
is not a concerto
movement in disguise, but
features the dark, dense
string writing typical of
Sibelius. Fast alle
Orchesterbearbeitungen
sind Jahre nach den
Originalkompositionen fur
Singstimme und Klavier
entstanden.
Trotz
der Tatsache dass sie
rasch hingeworfen sind
zeigt sich in allen
Liedern Sibelius'
Meisterschaft als
Orchesterliederkomponist.
Manchmal vermag er eine
dustere dramatische
Atmosphare (in ,,Pa
verandan vid havet) zu
erzeugen manchmal
gelingen ihm leuchtend
farbige Impressionen (in
,,Soluppgang) oder zart
transparente Gewebe (in
,,Varen flyktar hastigt)
- immer jedoch sind die
Lieder ganz aus deren
poetischer Idee heraus
gestaltet und
differenziert
nachgezeichnet. In den
meisten Fallen
beschrankte sich Sibelius
auf ein relativ kleines
Orchester. In ,,Varen
flyktar hastigt sind
neben den Streichern nur
zwei Floten und vier
Horner besetzt. Nearly
all of the orchestral
arrangements were made
years after the original
compositions for voice
and piano.
Yet
even though the
arrangements were made in
a very short period of
time Sibelius handled the
combination of solo voice
and orchestra in all
songs with equal mastery
sometimes creating dark
and dramatic atmospheres
(in Pa verandan vid
havet) sometimes radiant
colorful impressions (in
Soluppgang) or
light-colored transparent
textures (in Varen
flyktar hastigt) and
always basing his ideas
on the poetic idea of the
song while discovering
refined ways of
supporting it.
