When
guitarist John Olson and
soprano Gioia De Cari
commissioned me to write
a piece for them, I envi-
sioned writing something
theatrical that might
especially suit Gioia,
who is both a singer and
an actress. Eventually, I
thought of Mark Twain.
The great American writer
and humorist of substance
wrote a short,
little-known book called
The Diary of Adam and
Eve, which is, of course,
about the first days of
human life on this earth,
in Twainâs witty,
but touching take on the
Bible story. Adam and Eve
each write diary entries.
I chose several passages
from Eveâs diary
that convey the sense of
constant wonder that she
felt because absolutely
everything in her world
was new.
Setting
prose, rather than
poetry, is a challenge
for a composer because it
has neither the innate
rhythm nor the lyricism
of poetry. On some
intuitive level, this
challenge led me to a
process that allowed the
music to evolve mostly
from the guitar part.
Whereas normally the
vocal melody might emerge
first, motivated by the
text and with the
accompaniment then added
for support, here the
guitar part was the prime
mover. An example of this
is the last song, which
is a passacaglia played
by the guitar, providing
the ground over which the
vocal line can soar.
Eveâs Diary was

2015.

In
the early 1960s the
Venezuelan guitarist,
Alirio Diaz, suggested to
Duarte that, because the
existing arrangements of
Schubert lieder for voice
and guitar were so poor,
he should make some new
arrangements. 20 songs
were initially arranged,
from 1966 onwards, and
only nine of them were
published by Edizioni
Musicali Bèrben in
1973. The songs in the
present volume selected
themselves for their
vocal range and only one
song, Der Schatzgräber
D 256, had to be
excluded. I am very
grateful to Amanda Cook
who took on the task of
adding fingerings to most
of these 55-year old
arrangements. There is a
small ossia part in
Freude der Kinderjahre, a
vocal ossia in Tischlied
and also one or two
places where chord
progressions have been
changed for easier
performance.
Transpositions from the
original keys are noted
in the musical text and
dynamics have been
inserted where they can
be corroborated. I have
refrained from including
an English, or any other
language, translation.
Singers and guitarists
will have their own
resources and knowledge
for translating the
meaning of the texts into
their own language, an
essential tool for the
interpretation of these
wonderful
songs.
