inches. Following a
celebrated series of wind
ensemble tone poems about
national parks in the
American West, Dan
Welcher’s Upriver
celebrates the Lewis &
Clark Expedition from the
Missouri River to
Oregon’s Columbia
Gorge, following the
Louisiana Purchase of
1803. Welcher’s
imaginative textures and
inventiveness are freshly
modern, evoking our
American heritage,
including references to
Shenandoah and other folk
songs known to have been
sung on the expedition.
For advanced players.
Duration:
14’. In 1803,
President Thomas
Jefferson sent Meriwether
Lewis and William
Clark’s Corps of
Discovery to find a water
route to the Pacific and
explore the uncharted
West. He believed woolly
mammoths, erupting
volcanoes, and mountains
of pure salt awaited
them. What they found was
no less mind-boggling:
some 300 species unknown
to science, nearly 50
Indian tribes, and the
Rockies.Ihave been a
student of the Lewis and
Clark expedition, which
Thomas Jefferson called
the “Voyage of
Discovery,†for as
long as I can remember.
This astonishing journey,
lasting more than
two-and-a-half years,
began and ended in St.
Louis, Missouri —
and took the travelers up
more than a few rivers in
their quest to find the
Northwest Passage to the
Pacific Ocean. In an age
without speedy
communication, this was
akin to space travel out
of radio range in our own
time: no one knew if,
indeed, the party had
even survived the voyage
for more than a year.
Most of them were
soldiers. A few were
French-Canadian voyageurs
— hired trappers
and explorers, who were
fluent in French (spoken
extensively in the
region, due to earlier
explorers from France)
and in some of the Indian
languages they might
encounter. One of the
voyageurs, a man named
Pierre Cruzatte, also
happened to be a
better-than-average
fiddle player. In many
respects, the travelers
were completely on their
own for supplies and
survival, yet,
incredibly, only one of
them died during the
voyage. Jefferson had
outfitted them with food,
weapons, medicine, and
clothing — and
along with other
trinkets, a box of 200
jaw harps to be used in
trading with the Indians.
Their trip was long,
perilous to the point of
near catastrophe, and
arduous. The dream of a
Northwest Passage proved
ephemeral, but the
northwestern quarter of
the continent had finally
been explored, mapped,
and described to an
anxious world. When the
party returned to St.
Louis in 1806, and with
the Louisiana Purchase
now part of the United
States, they were greeted
as national heroes.Ihave
written a sizeable number
of works for wind
ensemble that draw their
inspiration from the
monumental spaces found
in the American West.
Four of them (Arches, The
Yellowstone Fires,
Glacier, and Zion) take
their names, and in large
part their being, from
actual national parks in
Utah, Wyoming, and
Montana. But Upriver,
although it found its
voice (and its finale) in
the magnificent Columbia
Gorge in Oregon, is about
a much larger region.
This piece, like its
brother works about the
national parks,
doesn’t try to
tell a story. Instead, it
captures the flavor of a
certain time, and of a
grand adventure. Cast in
one continuous movement
and lasting close to
fourteen minutes, the
piece falls into several
subsections, each with
its own heading: The
Dream (in which
Jefferson’s vision
of a vast expanse of
western land is opened);
The Promise, a chorale
that re-appears several
times in the course of
the piece and represents
the seriousness of the
presidential mission; The
River; The Voyageurs; The
River II ; Death and
Disappointment; Return to
the Voyage; and The River
III .The music includes
several quoted melodies,
one of which is familiar
to everyone as the
ultimate “river
song,†and which
becomes the
through-stream of the
work. All of the quoted
tunes were either sung by
the men on the voyage, or
played by
Cruzatte’s fiddle.
From various journals and
diaries, we know the men
found enjoyment and
solace in music, and
almost every night
encampment had at least a
bit of music in it. In
addition to Cruzatte,
there were two other
members of the party who
played the fiddle, and
others made do with
singing, or playing upon
sticks, bones, the
ever-present jaw harps,
and boat horns. From
Lewis’ journals, I
found all the tunes used
in Upriver: Shenandoah
(still popular after more
than 200 years),
V’la bon vent,
Soldier’s Joy,
Johnny Has Gone for a
Soldier, Come Ye Sinners
Poor and Needy (a hymn
sung to the tune
“Beech
Springâ€) and
Fisher’s Hornpipe.
The work follows an
emotional journey: not
necessarily step-by-step
with the Voyage of
Discovery heroes, but a
kind of grand arch.
Beginning in the mists of
history and myth,
traversing peaks and
valleys both real and
emotional (and a solemn
funeral scene), finding
help from native people,
and recalling their zeal
upon finding the one
great river that will, in
fact, take them to the
Pacific. When the men
finally roar through the
Columbia Gorge in their
boats (a feat that even
the Indians had not
attempted), the
magnificent river
combines its theme with
the chorale of
Jefferson’s
Promise. The Dream is
fulfilled: not quite the
one Jefferson had
imagined (there is no
navigable water passage
from the Missouri to the
Pacific), but the dream
of a continental
destiny. $45.00 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 1 to 2 weeks | | |

ch. Washed up on
the Phaeacian shore after
a shipwreck, Odysseus is
introduced to King
Alcinous. As he sits in
the palace, he tells the
Phaeacians of his
wanderings since leaving
Troy. Odysseus and his
men fi rst landed on the
island of the Cicones
wherethey sacked the city
of Ismarus. From there,
great storms swept them
to the land of the
hospitable Lotus Eaters.
Then they sailed to the
land of the Cyclopes.
Odysseus and twelve of
his men entered the cave
of Polyphemus. After the
single-eyed giantmade
handfuls of his men into
meals, Odysseus fi nally
defeated him. He got him
drunk and once he had
fallen asleep, he and his
men stabbed a glowing
spike into the
Cyclop’s single
eye, completely blinding
him. They escaped by
clinging to the belliesof
some sheep. Once aboard,
Odysseus taunted the
Cyclop by revealing him
his true identity.
Enraged, Polyphemus
hurled rocks at the ship,
trying to sink it. After
leaving the
Cyclopes’ island,
they arrived at the home
of Aeolus, ruler of the
winds.Aeolus off ered
Odysseus a bag trapping
all the strong winds
within except one - the
one which would take him
straight back to Ithaca.
As the ship came within
sight of Ithaca, the
crewmen, curious about
the bag, decided to open
it. The winds escapedand
stirred up a storm.
Odysseus and his crew
came to the land of the
cannibalistic
Laestrygonians, who sank
all but one of the ships.
The survivors went next
to Aeaea, the island of
the witch-goddess Circe.
Odysseus sent out a
scouting party butCirce
turned them into pigs.
With the help of an
antidote the god Hermes
had given him, Odysseus
managed to overpower the
goddess and forced her to
change his men back to
human form. When it was
time for Odysseus to
leave, Circe told him to
sail tothe realm of the
dead to speak with the
spirit of the seer
Tiresias. One
day’s sailing took
them to the land of the
Cimmerians. There, he
performed sacrifi ces to
attract the souls of the
dead. Tiresias told him
what would happen to him
next. He thengot to talk
with his mother,
Anticleia, and met the
spirits of Agamemnon,
Achilles, Patroclus,
Antilochus, Ajax and
others. He then saw the
souls of the damned
Tityos, Tantalus, and
Sisyphus. Odysseus soon
found himself mobbed by
souls. He
becamefrightened, ran
back to his ship, and
sailed away. While back
at Aeaea, Circe told him
about the dangers he
would have to face on his
way back home. She
advised him to avoid
hearing the song of the
Sirens; but if he really
felt he had to hear,
thenhe should be tied to
the mast of the ship,
which he did. Odysseus
then successfully steered
his crew past Charybdis
(a violent whirlpool) and
Scylla (a multiple-headed
monster), but Scylla
managed to devour six of
his men. Finally,
Odysseus and hissurviving
crew approached the
island where the Sun god
kept sacred cattle.
Odysseus wanted to sail
past, but the crewmen
persuaded him to let them
rest there. Odysseus
passed Circe’s
counsel on to his men.
Once he had fallen
asleep, his men
impiouslykilled and ate
some of the cattle. When
the Sun god found out, he
asked Zeus to punish
them. Shortly after they
set sail from the island,
Zeus destroyed the ship
and all the men died
except for Odysseus.
After ten days, Odysseus
was washed up on
theisland of the nymph
Calypso.
Odysseus,
die is aangespoeld op de
kust van de Phaeaken,
maakt kennis met koning
Alcinoüs. In het
paleis van de
laatstgenoemde vertelt
hij wat hij heeft
meegemaakt sinds zijn
vertrek uit Troje.
Odysseus en zijn
metgezellen legdeneerst
aan op het eiland van de
Ciconen, waar ze de stad
Ismarus plunderden. Toen
ze weer op zee waren,
brak een storm los, die
ze naar het land van de
gastvrije Lotophagen
bracht. Daarna zeilden ze
naar het eiland van de
Cyclopen.Odysseus en
twaalf van zijn
metgezellen kwamen
terecht in de grot van
Polyphemus. Deze verslond
een aantal van hen, maar
werd uiteindelijk door
Odysseus verslagen: hij
voerde de reus dronken,
waarna die in slaap viel.
Vervolgensstak hij een
gloeiende paal in zijn
ene oog om hem blind te
maken. Odysseus en zijn
mannen ontsnapten uit de
grot door ieder onder de
buik van een van
Polyphemus’
schapen te gaan hangen.
Eenmaal weer aan boord
riep Odysseusuitdagend
naar de cycloop en
onthulde zijn naam.
Woedend wierp Polyphemus
rotsblokken in de
richting van het schip in
een poging het te laten
zinken. Nadat ze het
Cyclopeneiland hadden
verlaten, arriveerden ze
bij Aeolus, heerservan de
winden. Aeolus gaf
Odysseus een zak met
daarin alle krachtige
winden behalve één
- die hem rechtstreeks
terug naar zijn
thuisbasis Ithaca zou
voeren. Toen het schip
Ithaca bijna had bereikt,
besloten de metgezellen,
die nieuwsgierigwaren
naar de inhoud, de zak te
openen. De winden
ontsnapten en er ontstond
een enorme storm.
Odysseus en zijn
bemanning kwamen terecht
in het land van de
kannibalistische
Laestrygonen, die alle
schepen lieten zinken,
opéén na. De
overlevenden vluchtten
naar Aeaea, het eiland
van de tovenares Circe,
die de metgezellen van
Odysseus in zwijnen
veranderde. Met de hulp
van een tegengif dat hij
had gekregen van Hermes,
lukte het Odysseus om
Circe te
Nachdem
er an die Küste der
Phäaker gespült
wurde, wird Odysseus dem
König Akinoos
vorgestellt. In dessen
Palast erzählt er den
Phäakern von den
Fahrten nach seiner
Abreise aus Troja.
Odysseus und seine
Männer landen
zunächst auf
denKikonen, einer
Inselgruppe, wo sie die
Stadt Ismaros einnehmen.
Von dort aus treiben sie
mächtige Stürme
zum Land der
gastfreundlichen
Lotophagen
(Lotos-Essern). Dann
segeln sie zum Land der
Kyklopen (Zyklopen).
Odysseus und seine
zwölf Mannenbetreten
die Höhle von
Poloyphem, dem Sohn
Poseidons. Nachdem dieser
einige der Männer
verspeist hat,
überwaÃ…Nltigt
ihn Odysseus, indem er
ihn betrunken macht und
dann mit einem
glühenden Spieß
in dessen einziges Auge
sticht und ihn
somitblendet. Odysseus
und die übrigen
Männer fl iehen an den
Bäuchen von Schafen
hängend. Wieder an
Bord, provoziert Odysseus
den Zyklopen, indem er
ihm seine wahre
Identität verrät.
Wütend bewirft
Polyphem das Schiff mit
Steinen undversucht, es
zu versenken. Nachdem sie
die Insel der Kyklopen
verlassen haben, kommen
Odysseus und seine Mannen
ins Reich von Aiolos, dem
Herr der Winde. Aiolos
schenkt ihm einen Beutel,
in dem alle Winde
eingesperrt sind,
außer dem, der ihn
direktzurück nach
Ithaka treiben soll. Als
das Schiff in Sichtweite
von Ithaka ist, öff
nen die neugierigen
Seemänner den
Windsack. Die Winde entfl
iehen und erzeugen einen
Sturm. Odysseus und seine
Mannschaft verschlägt
es ins Land
derkannibalischen
Laistrygonen, die alle
ihre Schiff e, bis auf
eines, versenken. Die
Ãœberlebenden reisen
weiter nach Aiaia, der
Insel der Zauberin Kirke.
Odysseus sendet einen
Spähtrupp aus, der von
Kirke aber in Schweine
verwandelt wird. Mit
Hilfeeines Gegenmittels
vom Götterboten Hermes
kann Odysseus Kirke
überwaÃ…Nltigen
und er zwingt sie, seinen
Gefährten wieder ihre
menschliche Gestalt
zurückzugeben. Als
er wieder aufbrechen
will, rät Kirke ihm,
den Seher Teiresias in
derUnterwelt aufzusuchen
und zu befragen. Eine
Tagesreise führt
sie dann ins Land der
Kimmerer, nahe dem
Eingang des Hades. Dort
bringt Odysseus Opfer, um
die Seelen der Toten
anzurufen. Teireisas sagt
ihm sein Schicksal
voraus. Dann darf
Odysseusmit seiner Mutter
Antikleia und den Seelen
von Agamemnon, Achilles,
Patroklos, Antilochus,
Ajax und anderen Toten
sprechen. Dann sieht er
die Seelen der Verdammten
Tityos, Tantalos und
Sisyphos. Bald wird
Odysseus selbst von den
Seelen gequält,
kehrtvoll Angst zu seinem
Schiff zurück und
segelt davon. In Aiaia
hatte Kirke ihn vor den
drohenden Gefahren der
Heimreise gewarnt. Sie
riet ihm, den Gesang der
Sirenen zu vermeiden,
wenn er aber unbedingt
zuhören müsse,
solle er sich an denMast
seines Schiff es bindet
lassen, was er dann auch
tut. Dann führt
Odysseus seine Mannschaft
erfolgreich durch die
Meerenge zwischen Skylla
und Charybdis, wobei
Skylla jedoch sechs
seiner Männer
verschlingt.
Schließlich erreichen
Odysseusund die
überlebende
Besatzung die Insel, auf
der der Sonnengott Helios
heiliges Vieh hält.
Odysseus will
weitersegeln, aber seine
Mannschaft
überredet ihn zu
einer Rast. Odysseus
erzählt ihnen von
Kirkes Warnung, aber
kaum, dass
ereingeschlafen ist,
töten die Männer in
gotteslästerlicher
Weise einige Rinder und
verspeisen sie. Als
Helios dies entdeckt,
bittet er Zeus, sie zu
bestrafen. Kurz nachdem
sie die Segel für
die Abreise von der Insel
gesetzt haben,
zerstört Zeusdas
Schiff und alle außer
Odysseus sterben. Nach
zehn Tagen wird Odysseus
an den Strand der Insel
der Nymphe Kalypso
angespült.

Achilles, Patroclus,
Antilochus, Ajax and
others. He then saw the
souls of the damned
Tityos, Tantalus, and
Sisyphus. Odysseus soon
found himself mobbed by
souls. He
becamefrightened, ran
back to his ship, and
sailed away. While back
at Aeaea, Circe told him
about the dangers he
would have to face on his
way back home. She
advised him to avoid
hearing the song of the
Sirens; but if he really
felt he had to hear,
thenhe should be tied to
the mast of the ship,
which he did. Odysseus
then successfully steered
his crew past Charybdis
(a violent whirlpool) and
Scylla (a multiple-headed
monster), but Scylla
managed to devour six of
his men. Finally,
Odysseus and hissurviving
crew approached the
island where the Sun god
kept sacred cattle.
Odysseus wanted to sail
past, but the crewmen
persuaded him to let them
rest there. Odysseus
passed Circe’s
counsel on to his men.
Once he had fallen
asleep, his men
impiouslykilled and ate
some of the cattle. When
the Sun god found out, he
asked Zeus to punish
them. Shortly after they
set sail from the island,
Zeus destroyed the ship
and all the men died
except for Odysseus.
After ten days, Odysseus
was washed up on
theisland of the nymph
Calypso.
Odysseus,
die is aangespoeld op de
kust van de Phaeaken,
maakt kennis met koning
Alcinoüs. In het
paleis van de
laatstgenoemde vertelt
hij wat hij heeft
meegemaakt sinds zijn
vertrek uit Troje.
Odysseus en zijn
metgezellen legdeneerst
aan op het eiland van de
Ciconen, waar ze de stad
Ismarus plunderden. Toen
ze weer op zee waren,
brak een storm los, die
ze naar het land van de
gastvrije Lotophagen
bracht. Daarna zeilden ze
naar het eiland van de
Cyclopen.Odysseus en
twaalf van zijn
metgezellen kwamen
terecht in de grot van
Polyphemus. Deze verslond
een aantal van hen, maar
werd uiteindelijk door
Odysseus verslagen: hij
voerde de reus dronken,
waarna die in slaap viel.
Vervolgensstak hij een
gloeiende paal in zijn
ene oog om hem blind te
maken. Odysseus en zijn
mannen ontsnapten uit de
grot door ieder onder de
buik van een van
Polyphemus’
schapen te gaan hangen.
Eenmaal weer aan boord
riep Odysseusuitdagend
naar de cycloop en
onthulde zijn naam.
Woedend wierp Polyphemus
rotsblokken in de
richting van het schip in
een poging het te laten
zinken. Nadat ze het
Cyclopeneiland hadden
verlaten, arriveerden ze
bij Aeolus, heerservan de
winden. Aeolus gaf
Odysseus een zak met
daarin alle krachtige
winden behalve één
- die hem rechtstreeks
terug naar zijn
thuisbasis Ithaca zou
voeren. Toen het schip
Ithaca bijna had bereikt,
besloten de metgezellen,
die nieuwsgierigwaren
naar de inhoud, de zak te
openen. De winden
ontsnapten en er ontstond
een enorme storm.
Odysseus en zijn
bemanning kwamen terecht
in het land van de
kannibalistische
Laestrygonen, die alle
schepen lieten zinken,
opéén na. De
overlevenden vluchtten
naar Aeaea, het eiland
van de tovenares Circe,
die de metgezellen van
Odysseus in zwijnen
veranderde. Met de hulp
van een tegengif dat hij
had gekregen van Hermes,
lukte het Odysseus om
Circe te
Nachdem
er an die Küste der
Phäaker gespült
wurde, wird Odysseus dem
König Akinoos
vorgestellt. In dessen
Palast erzählt er den
Phäakern von den
Fahrten nach seiner
Abreise aus Troja.
Odysseus und seine
Männer landen
zunächst auf
denKikonen, einer
Inselgruppe, wo sie die
Stadt Ismaros einnehmen.
Von dort aus treiben sie
mächtige Stürme
zum Land der
gastfreundlichen
Lotophagen
(Lotos-Essern). Dann
segeln sie zum Land der
Kyklopen (Zyklopen).
Odysseus und seine
zwölf Mannenbetreten
die Höhle von
Poloyphem, dem Sohn
Poseidons. Nachdem dieser
einige der Männer
verspeist hat,
überwaÃ…Nltigt
ihn Odysseus, indem er
ihn betrunken macht und
dann mit einem
glühenden Spieß
in dessen einziges Auge
sticht und ihn
somitblendet. Odysseus
und die übrigen
Männer fl iehen an den
Bäuchen von Schafen
hängend. Wieder an
Bord, provoziert Odysseus
den Zyklopen, indem er
ihm seine wahre
Identität verrät.
Wütend bewirft
Polyphem das Schiff mit
Steinen undversucht, es
zu versenken. Nachdem sie
die Insel der Kyklopen
verlassen haben, kommen
Odysseus und seine Mannen
ins Reich von Aiolos, dem
Herr der Winde. Aiolos
schenkt ihm einen Beutel,
in dem alle Winde
eingesperrt sind,
außer dem, der ihn
direktzurück nach
Ithaka treiben soll. Als
das Schiff in Sichtweite
von Ithaka ist, öff
nen die neugierigen
Seemänner den
Windsack. Die Winde entfl
iehen und erzeugen einen
Sturm. Odysseus und seine
Mannschaft verschlägt
es ins Land
derkannibalischen
Laistrygonen, die alle
ihre Schiff e, bis auf
eines, versenken. Die
Ãœberlebenden reisen
weiter nach Aiaia, der
Insel der Zauberin Kirke.
Odysseus sendet einen
Spähtrupp aus, der von
Kirke aber in Schweine
verwandelt wird. Mit
Hilfeeines Gegenmittels
vom Götterboten Hermes
kann Odysseus Kirke
überwaÃ…Nltigen
und er zwingt sie, seinen
Gefährten wieder ihre
menschliche Gestalt
zurückzugeben. Als
er wieder aufbrechen
will, rät Kirke ihm,
den Seher Teiresias in
derUnterwelt aufzusuchen
und zu befragen. Eine
Tagesreise führt
sie dann ins Land der
Kimmerer, nahe dem
Eingang des Hades. Dort
bringt Odysseus Opfer, um
die Seelen der Toten
anzurufen. Teireisas sagt
ihm sein Schicksal
voraus. Dann darf
Odysseusmit seiner Mutter
Antikleia und den Seelen
von Agamemnon, Achilles,
Patroklos, Antilochus,
Ajax und anderen Toten
sprechen. Dann sieht er
die Seelen der Verdammten
Tityos, Tantalos und
Sisyphos. Bald wird
Odysseus selbst von den
Seelen gequält,
kehrtvoll Angst zu seinem
Schiff zurück und
segelt davon. In Aiaia
hatte Kirke ihn vor den
drohenden Gefahren der
Heimreise gewarnt. Sie
riet ihm, den Gesang der
Sirenen zu vermeiden,
wenn er aber unbedingt
zuhören müsse,
solle er sich an denMast
seines Schiff es bindet
lassen, was er dann auch
tut. Dann führt
Odysseus seine Mannschaft
erfolgreich durch die
Meerenge zwischen Skylla
und Charybdis, wobei
Skylla jedoch sechs
seiner Männer
verschlingt.
Schließlich erreichen
Odysseusund die
überlebende
Besatzung die Insel, auf
der der Sonnengott Helios
heiliges Vieh hält.
Odysseus will
weitersegeln, aber seine
Mannschaft
überredet ihn zu
einer Rast. Odysseus
erzählt ihnen von
Kirkes Warnung, aber
kaum, dass
ereingeschlafen ist,
töten die Männer in
gotteslästerlicher
Weise einige Rinder und
verspeisen sie. Als
Helios dies entdeckt,
bittet er Zeus, sie zu
bestrafen. Kurz nachdem
sie die Segel für
die Abreise von der Insel
gesetzt haben,
zerstört Zeusdas
Schiff und alle außer
Odysseus sterben. Nach
zehn Tagen wird Odysseus
an den Strand der Insel
der Nymphe Kalypso
angespült.
U
lysse, épuisé par
la terrible tempête
qu’il a subie,
échoue sur le rivage
des Phéaciens. Reçu
au palais du roi
Alcinoos, Ulysse
entreprend le récit
des épreuves
passées depuis son
départ de Troie.
Arrivés dans
l’île des
Cicones, Ulysse et ses
compagnons mettent la
cité d’Ismaros
sac puis reprennent la
mer. Les vents les
emportent chez les
Lotophages, un peuple
paisible. Ulysse aborde
au pays des Cyclopes. Il
pénètre dans la
caverne de Polyphème
accompagné de douze
hommes. Après avoir vu
le Cyclope dévorer
deux de ses compagnons
chaque repas, Ulysse ruse
pour lui échapper. Il
l’enivre puis
embrase un épieu
taillé, qu’il
plante dans l'œil
unique du Cyclope
endormi,l’aveuglan
t définitivement. Les
survivants sortent
ensuite cachés sous le
ventre de ses brebis et
regagnent leurs bateaux.
Faisant preuve
d’orgueil, Ulysse
crie sa véritable
identité au risque de
faire sombrer son navire
sous une pluie de
rochers. Ulysse aborde
l’île
d’Eolie, au
royaume du maître des
vents. Eole offre Ulysse
un vent favorable pour
regagner Ithaque, et une
outre renfermant tous les
vents contraires.
Hélas, la curiosité
des marins
d’Ulysse aura
raison de cet heureux
dénouement car, en
ouvrant l’outre,
les vents contraires
s’échappent et
déchaînent une
nouvelle tempête.
Après avoir
dérivé plusieurs
jours, ils parviennent
chez les Lestrygons
cannibales qui
détruisent
l’escadre. Les
survivants reprennent la
mer avec un unique navire
et abordent dans
l’île
d’Aiaié,
séjour de la
magicienne Circé.
Ulysse envoie des
éclaireurs dans les
terres. Imprudemment
entrés dans la demeure
de la magicienne, ils
sont transformés en
pourceaux. Seul Ulysse
échappe au
sortilège gr ce
l’antidote que lui
indique Hermès.
Vaincue, Circé
s’offre au
héros et rend ses
compagnons leur forme
humaine. Avant de laisser
partir Ulysse, Circé
lui conseille
d’aller au pays
des morts consulter
l’ombre du devin
Tirésias. Après une
journée de navigation,

atteint le pays des
Cimmériens. Il

by the strife of the
Boston Tea Party before
the American Revolution,
as well as other
struggles throughout the
history of the United
States. It is cast in
three distinct parts,
with the first portraying
the early struggle of the
colonies to unify, the
second part reflecting
the unification of our
country after a
tumultuous civil war and
finally, demonstrating
the spirit and fight of
the current divide in
today's political
atmosphere. It is a
