The Full
Score for Peter Maxwell
Davies' fourth in a
series of ten string
quartets commissioned by
the Naxos Recording
company, first performed
by the Maggini Quartet on
20th August 2004 at the
Chapel of the Royal
Palace, Oslo, Norway, as
part of the Olso Chamber
Music Festival. Composer
Note: The fourth Naxos
quartet was written in
January and February of
2004, with the intention
of producing something
lighter and much less
fierce than its
predecessor, an
unpremeditated and
spontaneous reaction to
the illegal invasion of
Iraq. I returned to the
well-known Brueghel
picture of children's
games (1560, now in
Vienna), which had been
the inspiration for my
sixth Strathclyde
Concerto, for flute and
orchestra. These
illustrations liberated
my musical imagination,
but I feel it would limit
the listener's perception
to be too specific about
which game relates to
exactly which section of
the work. Suffice it to
say that there is
vigorous play -
leap-frog, bind the devil
with a cord, truss,
wrestling - alongside
quieter pastimes - masks,
guess whom I shall
choose, courting, odds
and evens. The single
movement juxtaposes these
activities as abruptly
and intimately as they
occur in Brueghel. Rather
as the eye is taken into
different perspectives
and proportions of scale
within the picture,
taking liberties which
would never be present
in, for instance,
Brunelleschi
architectural drawings,
so here, with a constant
sequence of
transformation processes,
I have distorted the
neat, precise
implications of modal
progression, expressed in
the unison opening phrase
(from F to B through A
sharp/B flat), so that
the ear is led, en route,
into the sound
equivalents of strange
passageways and closed
rooms: sicut exposition
ludus. As work on the
quartet progressed I
became aware that I was
reading into, and behind
the games, adult motives
and implications,
concerning aggression and
war, with their
consequences. It was
impossible to escape into
innocent childhood
fantasy. The nature of
the F to B progression
underlying the whole
construction derives from
a passage in the
development of the first
movement of Mahler's
Third Symphony, and the
opening of Schoenberg's
Second String Quartet.
However, unlike in these
models, here a real - if
temporary - sense of
resolution occurs at the
close of the quartet: as
when the curtain falls on
the reconciled Count and
Countess in 'Figaro' one
wonders how long the F/B
truce will hold, and
games break out again.
The quartet is dedicated
to Giuseppe Rebecchini,
Roman architect, and
friend since the
nineteen-fifties.

Norgard 's Gennem Torne /
Through Thorns (2003)
Harp Concerto No. 2 -
Passage for Harp Solo
with Flute, Clarinet and
String Quartet. Premiered
by Tine Rehling (Harp)
and the Esbjerg Ensemble,
conducted by Kaisa Roose
at the Concert Hall of
the Western Jutland
Academy of Music,
Esbjerg, 28th January
2004. Programme Note
THROUGH THORNS has a
duration of about 20
minutes, in one
continuous movement, thus
the subtitle passage. The
work is scored for harp
solo, flute, clarinet and
string quartet. The title
is borrowed from the
lines from an old Virgin
Mary Hymn: Mary wanders
through thorns, a hymn
which ends with the
following line: then
roses grew forth amongst
thethorns. I only came
across the poem after
finishing the
composition, the passage
of which is a journey of
sometimes dramatic
events, concluding with a
rose-blooming, as does
the hymn. For
THROUGH THORNS to borrow
its title from a Virgin
Mary Hymn has to do with
the musical material and
current of the piece,
which brings motives from
an earlier choral piece
of mine, FLOS UT ROSA
(Latin for a flower like
a rose), and the rose in
question is of course the
one which grew forth when
the Virgin Mary gave
birth to the Infant Jesus
in a hitherto unheard-of
fashion, a NOVA GENITURA
(new birth), which is the
title of another work of
mine that also derives
its material from my
original rose-melody from
1975. THROUGH
THORNS is dedicated to
Tine Rehling, and
together with her I have
tried to expand the
sonorities of the harp,
by exploring existing
techniques and their more
remote regions, in order
to gain access to new
territory and new
soundscaoes, as realised
by the constantly
experimentally-minded and
virtuoso player.
