violin part for Honest
Music looks something
like Terry Riley's In C,
insofar as it's a
collection of discrete,
modular phrases to be
recombined in
“performance,â€
or in this case, by the
electronic manipulation
of the recording. But
these aren't Riley's
musical Lego blocks; most
of these are long,
expressive, idiomatic
gestures, combining
Nico's soaring
English-choirboy
diatonicism with
Romantic, violinistic
leaps and slides up and
down the fingerboard. As
these figures pile on top
of each other, the
close-miked, aberrant
fiddle timbre comes to
seem, as per the title of
the piece, brutally
candid. The other
fragments, imitated in
character by the
sputtering harp and
percussion of the
accompaniment, sound more
like scraps swept from a
cutting-room floor
somewhere - all false
starts, warm-ups and
afterbeats - and the
glitchy, staticky noises
in the background
contribute to the sense
of something rough,
half-finished. The result
is to suggest that all of
Honest Music is an
out-take, a rehearsal for
another, wholly imaginary
piece. But the gravity
and authority of the
harmonies (and the low
drones) lend the
makeshift nature of the
piece an authentic drama
in its own right: the sad
beauty of things coming
together and things
falling apart.

Roses Are
Falling - 5 songs for
Mezzo-Soprano and Piano
by Bent Sorensen (1998)
with lyrics by Selima
Hill. Programme note:
Roses are Falling had its
origin in a small opera
sketch I created with the
English poet Selima Hill
in just under a week
during an opera workshop
in the south of England
in the autumn of 1998.
After the workshop I was
asked to make a song
cycle out of the
material. The opera
sketch begins with a
woman and a man sitting
alone in a room. They
have drawn aside from the
rest of a large party and
they have just decided to
finish their love affair.
The other guests at the
party come into the room,
and amidst the crowd the
man leaves the room. The
women is leftthere alone
among all these
inconsequential people:
alone, singing her own
thoughts and torment. The
first three songs were
all taken from this part.
In the fourth song, which
was written late, the
text is taken from one of
Selima Hill's poetry
collections. The fifth
and last song comes
partly from the beginning
of the opera, where the
man and the women sit
alone (she knows what is
coming), partly from the
end of the story, where
despite the gab in time
and space they touch each
other with their dreams.
His voice is heard as a
whisper that merges with
hers: He takes me in his
arms like the moon that
turns and take the
evening from the sun.
Roses are Falling was
premiered in 2000 in
London by Lore Lixenberg
and Domenic Saunders.

The Slow
Spring is a short and
unusual choral setting of
the writing of Tom
Kristensen, impatiently
yearning for the coming
of Spring. Kristensen's
evocative and stirring
poetry, translated to
English by Martin
Allwood, are employed as
both song and
accompaniment as the
choral group is split
into two factions. An set
of SATB soloists are set
against an SSAA chorus to
provide a compelling
variety of textures, and
the plosive possibilities
of the words themselves
are fully explored with
whispers, held vowels and
dramatic percussive
consonants.

Every
fall, marching bands take
to the field in a
uniquely American ritual.
From the stands, it looks
easy. You don’t
see them sweat. For
millions of kids, band is
more than a show.
It’s a rite of
passage—a first
foray into leadership and
adult responsibility, and
a chance to learn what it
means to be part of a
community. Nowhere is
band more serious than at
Concord High School in
Elkhart, Indiana, where
the entire town is
involved with the success
of its defending state
champion band, the
Marching Minutemen. In
the place where this
tradition may have
originated, in the city
that became the band
instrument capital of the
world, band is a
religion. But it’s
not the only religion, as
director Max Jones
discovers. After four
decades. Jones’s
single-minded devotion to
musical excellence has
fallen out of step with a
younger generation
increasingly focused on
personal salvation. In
what his students do not
know is his final season
of directing, he has
assembled his most
ambitious show ever, for
the strongest senior
class he has ever
directed. Amid
conflicting notions of
greatness, the band
marches through a season
that starts in hope and
promise, progresses
through uncertainty and
disappointment, and ends,
ultimately, in
redemption. American Band
is an unusually intimate
chronicle of life, in all
its triumph,
disappointment, and
drama, in the kind of
community in which most
of America lives. It is
an especially timely
portrait, capturing as it
does the spirit of the
heartland at a time of
profound change. If you
have ever been— or
yearned to be—
part of something bigger
than yourself, you will
be rooting for the kids
whose voices fill this
book. Kirsten Laine is an
award-winning journalist
whose commentaries can be
heard on Vermont Public
Radio. She lives in New
Hampshire with writer Jim
Collins and their two
children. “American
Band has everything going
for it, from tempo to
heart to the grand
bittersweet finale. What
a gift for readers: a
pitch-perfect tribute to
kids and song and
community.â€
