This cycle
arranged by Aribert
Reimann of eight Lieder
by Mendelssohn contains
well-known items like:
'Leise zieht durch mein
Gemut' and 'Auf Flugeln
des Gesangs'. The songs
are joined to each other
by specially composed
intermezzi which attempt
- with refer-ence to the
thematic material of the
songs - to re-interpret
Mendelssohn's idiom for
our time. '... oder soll
es Tod bedeuten' ist the
final work in Reimann's
series of adaptions of
19th-century songs for
voice and string quartet.
Franz Schubert's 'Mignon'
(ED 8466) has already
been published. All these
cycles have been recorded
by Juliane Banse and the
Cherubini Quartet and are
available on CD (TUD
7063).

What
do Beethoven and the
children's song Fuchs Du
hast die Gans gestohlen
have in common? Nothing,
strictly speaking.
Although the song was
written as early as 1824
(and theoretically,
Beethoven could have
known it), it has not
left deep marks on his
oeuvre. But what if he
had known it? Wolfgang
Birtel pursued this
question and, in reply to
it, conceived a symphony
for string quartet:
behind each movement is
an original symphony by
Beethoven (spiced with
quotes from other works).
The children's song
appears as the main theme
in the final movement of
Symphony No. 1, in the
famous funeral march of
Eroica, fate knocks at
the door (of the goose
house) in remembrance of
Symphony No. 5, and the
work ends with Ode to the
Roast Goose (Symphony No.
9). A funny and cleverly
arranged collage, a
performing and listening
pleasure in the footsteps
of Beethoven.

Natu
re and landscape have
been the dominant themes
of much of Rhian Samuel's
vocal music of the last
ten years, projected
chiefly through the
poetry of Anne Stevenson,
and in her most recent
song-settings, the
writings of the
Pakistan-born Texas-based
poet Zulfikar Ghose. His
poem 'Conspiracy of the
Clouds' describes how,
the clouds having chosen
to become invisible,
'Even the astronauts on
the space shuttle /
looked down on a
cloudless America' as
hurricanes ravage
Louisiana and storms
engulf Nebraska. An
intriguing conceit in the
tradition of magic
realism, the text is
presented as a scena
lasting around 16
minutes, with
interpolations from
'Haze' by the
nineteenth-century New
England transcendentalist
Henry David Thoreau. Thus
modern fable and romantic
nature-description are
juxtaposed, and their
interaction becomes the
source of musical
contrasts too. Thoreau's
words are assigned
predominantly to the
vocalist's highest
register, those of Ghose
to her lower tessitura;
and the suggestive and
dramatic accompaniment
builds tension steadily
to the final ironic
response of an
incredulous American
public: not one of awe
and wonder, but the
question 'Why weren't we
told about it?

Though a
piano can always be
included, it is not an
essential requirement for
the performance of these
settings: in some of the
carols, two violins or
two flutes are quite
sufficient, especially if
voices are used as well.
The following
combinations are
particularly suitable for
domestic music-making,
whether or not voices are
included as well:one
violin and piano,two
violins and piano,two or
three violins,violins and
recorders,two concert (C)
flutes (and an alto
flute) and - as the ideal
combination for
shepherds' songs -
flutes, violins, cello
and piano.Performing
groups and music schools
have the advantage of a
wider choice of forces
and the possibility of
varying the
instrumentation within
the individual carols and
verses. Thus large and
small combinations can
alternate, strings and
flutes can play in turn,
and finally the piano can
be used by itself or to
reinforce other
instrumental
combinations, in which
case the cello can be
added, too.The pieces are
graded in increasing
order of difficulty; the
first carols are chosen
so that they can be
mastered by violinists
after as little as 4 to 6
months of learning their
instrument. The choise
and sequence of the
carols in this book, and
also their keys, were
determined, amongst other
factors, by their
suitability for the start
of violin tuition, both
in first and in third
position, so that these
carols make an especially
good supplement of
Christmas music to the
violin method of Fritz
and Gottfried Scharlach
(with its principle of
starting with the third
position). The
progressively increasing
difficulty of the carols
has resulted, for
example, in the three
Advent carols (nos.
23-25) being placed later
in the collection.The
editor hopes that these
carols will be much
played and sung, and thus
help to fill the
Christmas season with joy
and splendour.Fritz
Scharlach, Salzburg,
December 1972
Our
beautiful Christmas
carols, old and new, are
presented here in
settings, ranging from
the easy to the more
difficult, for various
combinations of voices
and instruments that may
be available in domestic
music-making or for a
Christmas concert.

Such
is the character of the
accordion that any work
featuring its distinctive
voice within an ensemble
is likely to be a
piece
d'occasion. Written
for the prizewinning
young soloist Milos
Milivojevic and performed
with the Juritz String
Quartet at the 2011
Machynlleth Festival in
Wales, Rhian Samuel's
Mist on the
Hills is no
exception. The composer
has used the rare
opportunity of writing
for the instrument in
combination with solo
strings to exploit its
illustrative powers and
create a fourteen-minute
score inspired by the
changing weather over the
hills around her Welsh
home on the Dyfi
Estuary.
In
particular, its three
movements are suggestive
of the appearance of mist
in the landscape,
'settling', 'lingering'
and 'swirling'. In the
first movement, which is
a gentle prelude, brief
accordion motifs break
through the timbre of
strings like glints of
sunshine through mist.
The second movement, more
song-like, presents three
verses of a lament; in
the first half of each
verse the accordion sings
as if from afar, while in
the second half (led by
the viola) the music
intensifies greatly. In
the dance-like and
virtuosic last movement a
short, constantly
changing refrain
alternates with two types
of material: 'swirling'
music and lighter, more
rhythmical ideas.
Finally, scale passages
invade the texture,
ceasing only as the
accordion ascends to the
top of its range in the
closing bars.
