Harrison's Ha
llristningsomra det
for solo Double Bass.
Composed and published
2016. Duration c. 10
minutes The area of
Tanumshede is situated on
the south western coast
of Sweden.
Archaeologically, it is
renowned for its unique
series of Bronze Age rock
carvings dating from
between c. 1800 to 500
BCE. Incised into over
600 panels, the
petroglyphs were
originally situated along
a 25 mile stretch of
fjord coastline and as
such there are many
depictions of Hjortspring
boats and seafaring
activities. There are
also scenes of hunting,
agricultural and
livestock farming and
warring, with many
armoured figures carrying
swords, axes and shields.
Whilst it is possible
tointerpret most carvings
as images of quotidian
life, the meaning of some
panels is less clear. It
is likely that several
scenes depict ritual acts
overseen by gods, often
surrounded by abstract
symbols - crosses, dots
and ‘cups’,
the significance of which
is now unknown. As well
as being a source of
information about
Scandinavian Bronze Age
weapons, vehicles, tools,
ships, even hairstyles,
the carvings have also
been the subject of
debates about gender. The
society depicted on the
rocks seems
overwhelmingly
patriarchal, making the
rare carvings of probable
female figures
particularly important.
The most famous of these
is known as The Grieving
Woman, apparently weeping
over a dead warrior from
a ship. Her grief,
‘heavy as
rocks’ is heard in
the opening movement of
the piece, echoing
through the remaining
movements and giving the
work its dark, melancholy
character. The Woman
returns in the final
movement as a ghost, her
footsteps coming closer
and closer as her
‘lover’s&rsqu
o; ship is rebuilt over
and over again. Movement
III is gentler in tone, a
song for the Woman and
her lover - depicted as a
couple rolling a giant
sun surrounded by farm
animals. Movement II
represents the enigmatic
Juggler or Calendar Man
who holds 29 spheres in
his hand - perhaps
juggling the fate of The
Grieving Woman. $11.95 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 4 to 6 weeks | | | |

How often has
something been justified
by, declared to be, or
blessed as “in the
name of†some cause
or other? How can it be
that opposing armies and
the use of weapons are
ever “in the name
ofâ€...? This is a
common thread in the
history of different
faiths. Good was created
but evil was committed
and all “in the
name of...†This
thread is also found in
the history of the
Premonstratensian Abbey
at Wadgassen. The abbey
was built in the 12th
century on unfertile,
desolate moorland, which
later evolved into the
most powerful religious
community in the
Saarland. The history of
the abbey records quite
astounding achievements
under the motto desertum
florebit quasi lilium
(“the desert will
bloom like a
lilyâ€); but also
the harsh treatment of
delinquents. The order
had its own school, in
which children were
taught the seven liberal
arts (which included
music as well as
geography and astronomy),
but the poor were left to
starve outside the abbey
walls and were only
allowed to eat from the
members' on feast days.
The medieval witch trials
demanded their pound of
flesh, and one group that
fell victim were ecstatic
dancers who moved wildly
to music--which was
interpreted as the
devil's work. The result:
a show trial that
sentenced the dancers to
death by fire. All in the
name of... The year is
1789: Abbot Bordier is in
the tenth year of his
command. He does not yet
know that he is to be the
last abbot of an almost
700-year-tradition. Not
far from the abbey is the
French border, which has
long been making itself
felt with the sound of
gunfire, and the brothers
continue to keep a
nervous eye on it. The
first portents of the
French Revolution loom,
but no one wants to
believe it--that is,
until the French pound
the door down, storm the
abbey and come right into
the brothers' chambers.
In a blind fury, all the
pipes of the abbey organ
are torn out, icons
beheaded with swords and
brothers beaten death
while numerous buildings
are set on fire. The
abbey church is in
flames. A frantic and
desperate escape begins.
Abbot Bordier and a
handful of brothers make
their getaway via the
River Saar, adjacent to
the abbey, to the
neighbouring village of
Bous. They survive, but
their life--the
Premonstratensian
abbey--is destroyed.
While they flee towards
Prague and the sanctuary
of the Strahov Monastery,
the abbey at Wadgassen is
razed to the ground and
becomes a stone quarry.
The desert blooms once
more, however. A few
short decades later, a
glasswork arises from the
foundations of the abbey.
As peace returns to the
region, it brings jobs
and a new vision for its
people. $198.00 - Voir plus => Acheter | | | |

Songs of Peace.

CD. GIA Publications
#690. Published by GIA
Publications
(GI.G-CD-690).
An ecumenical,
cross-cultural, and
profound call for
peace... A deep desire
for justice in our world
is one of the common
themes shared by all
people of faith and
goodwill. We, the
faith-filled, exhort a
desire to be heard,
understood, and protected
by God. We look forward
to a day when our world
will know a harvest of
peace. In the Days to
Come, a new recording by
Marty Haugen and Marc
Anderson, includes
Christian, Jewish,
Islamic, and Buddhist
texts coupled with music
from North America,
Central America, Africa,
Asia, and the Middle
East. It is an interfaith
project centered on
peacemaking. The title
song profoundly and
eloquently expresses the
desire for peace at the
heart of Haugen's
message—On the day
when we beat our swords
to plowshares, on the day
when we throw the spear
no more, on the day when
all nations will cast
their weapons down, on
the day when we turn away
from war. Â . $16.95 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 1 to 2 weeks | | |
