Created in 1851, 'Ride of the Valkyries' is the prelude to the third act of the music drama 'The Valkyrie'. The purely instrumental version soon found its way onto the concert stages and turned out to be a first-rate attraction. Apart from 'Treulich geführt', 'Ride of the Valkyries' probably is Wagner's most popular melody.More intimate insights, however, are given by 'Siegfried-Idyll'. In 1870, Richard Wagner came up with a rather special birthday present for his wife Cosima. He surprised her with a secretly composed orchestral work the dedication of which alludes to impressions or circumstances at the birth of their common son Siegfried. / Orchestre

Originally for cello and piano the Idyll dates from 1865.Charming three minute salon piece for Double Bass and Piano with a nice simple piano part.It has a romantic song structure which makes full use of the stringed instruments warm sound and yearning intensity.I have found this piece very useful with my own pupils around the ABRSM grade 7 - 8 standard a very pleasant little filler piece.

The Chinese Pictures for solo flute (s) (1993) were composed for the premiere played by the solo flutist Walter van Hauwe but Yun also wished for a performance by German flutes. The four pieces which Yun composed in June 1993 in Hohegeiß/ Harz are characterised by the reduced structural capacity of his style the memories of far eastern flute-idioms - with the exceprion of the third piece Der Affenspieler - and a Buddhist pattern. Yun consistently limits his work: all pieces come from techniques of the evolved variations and contrastive adaptions from (repsectively different) two- or three-toned themes. The first two pieces have the contemplative tenor as well as the spiraldramaturgy of the upward auched semi-circle the archetypal symbol for heaven in common. However the themes are conflictive: Bigger intervals abound the single tone in I. Der Besucher der Idylle whereas the tight coupling with the 'main tone' through smaller intervals in II. Der Eremit am Wasser evoke a softer sound. This clearly mirrors the impression of the single tone as a brush mark. Both pieces are - just like IV. Die Hirtenflöte - inspired by various variations of the story of the shepherd and his ox which in east Asia is used to name the 'inner child' of a human. The title if the first piece in the autograph is Der Besucher der Eremitage and refers to Buddhist hermitage. The visitor of this idyll is the farmer who leads his ox to the water for him to drink. The continuation of this parable is expressed by the second piece Der Eremit am Wasser. Together with the farmer the hermit comes to the water and rinses his ears. The farmer asks him why he would do that and the hermit responds: 'I was in town at the royal palace. I was to be empoloyed as sergeant and got offered a good payment. But when I asked what I had to do I heard terrible things. That is why I have to rinse my ears. ' The farmer however is disgusted by the contamination of the water; he leaves the fountain without letting his ox drink. The title of the third piece

Per NørgÃ¥rd's Wölfli - A Discarded MisfitDramatic Choir Montage for an Actor/Recitator and Chamber Chorus (2007). Extracts from the preface:No idyll without catastrophe – no catastrophe without idyll.Adolf Wölfli (1864-1931 Switzerland) is a central figure in the so called mad arts i.e. art created by patients who are certifyably mentally ill. Wölfli’s vast and eclectic production consists of approximately 20.000 pages of prose poetry pictures and fragmentary musical compositions. All of which was created at an institutionin Waldau Bern from 1900-1931 (...). Danish composer Per NørgÃ¥rd (born 1932) discovered by accident Wölfli’s art at the Louisiana Museum while on his way to a Schönberg concert a concert he never made it to. The encounter with Wölfli’s art was to become a major source of inspiration for NørgÃ¥rd in the 1980’s. The inspiration resulted in NørgÃ¥rd’s SYMPHONY NO. 4 (1981) entitled Indischer Roosen-Gaarten und Chineesischer Hexensee (after the title on a planned Musikbüchlein by Wölfli) and the opera THE DIVINE TIVOLI (1982) and numerous choral works. NørgÃ¥rd’s works from the 1980’s inspired by Wölfli are characterised by being wild dramatic and moving.The present work WÖLFLI has its point of departure in the choral works of the 1980’s and songs and interludes from the opera. All this is combined with additional prose poetry and pictures by Wölfli which come together to form a music-dramatic portrait of the confined his thoughts and artistic universe. Whereas the opera was a scenic tour de force of intense drama polyphonic scenarios and whirling instrumentation thefocus in WÖLFLI is monologue and

Durant l'été 2010, Vanessa Paradis a proposé une série de 20 concerts acoustiques en France : véritable évènement ! Pour la première fois, ses plus grandes chansons, de « Joe le taxi » à « Divine Idylle », étaient revisitées avec 8 musiciens acoustiques dont un quatuor à cordes. Vanessa Paradis et Barclay ont donc décidé d'enregistrer et filmer l'un des 2 concerts donnés à l'Opéra Royal du Château de Versailles, les 11 et 12 juillet. Ce concert représente une autre façon de dire que les chansons de Vanessa nous sont devenues familières. Des chansons dont le caractère intemporel est aujourd'hui sublimé par ces nouveaux arrangements acoustiques signés par Albin de la Simone : « L'idée était d'offrir à Vanessa une nouvelle lecture orchestrale de ses chansons, une version intemporelle, épurée et sensuelle, avec de beaux instruments et un quatuor à cordes..Pour écouter Vanessa plus sensible et émouvante encore. » Ce projet donne lieu à un album live mais aussi un film retraçant l'intégralité du concert du 12/07 à Versailles. Ce film, réalisé par François Goetghebeur (réalisateur notamment du remarquable film live d'Alain Chamfort « Impromptu au jardin du Luxembourg »), revient donc en proposant une vision très personnelle de la présence - comme rêvée - de Vanessa et ses musiciens dans un lieu mythique, à la fois solaire et mystérieux.
