The percussion
section powers this
dramatic and mysterious
composition. Eerie
percussion effects and
changing instrumental
colors heighten the
tension, which explodes
into a fast-paced,
forceful rhythmic romp.
The ranges and difficulty
of the wind and
percussion parts are
within the easy level,
making this and fun and
energizing piece for your
middle or junior high
band to perform.

'The
piece has been written
for Edna Michell's
Compassion project. In
the composition I follow
the idea of a dialogue,
suggested by the text I
have chosen. The intimate
nature and fragile sound
world of the duo mirror
the fragility of our
uncertain existence.' -
Kaija Saariaho Light and
darkness, night and day.
We marvel at the mystery
of the stars. Moon and
sky, sand and sea. We
marvel at the mystery of
the sun. Twilight, high
noon, dusk and dawn.
Though we are mortal, we
are Creation's crown.
Flesh and bone, steel and
stone. We dwell in
fragile, temporary
shelters. Grant steadfast
love, compassion, grace.
Sustain us, Lord; our
origin is dust. Splendor,
mercy, majesty, love
endure. We are but little
lower than the angels.
Resplendent skies,
sunset, sunrise. The
grandeur of Creation
lifts our lives. Evening
darkness, morning
dawn.

English
comments: This is
the definitive version of
Biogenesis, a piece that
Cervello had written in
1976, together with his
friend Jorge Wagensberg,
and which was awarded the
First Prize at the
Spanish Ministry for
Education and Science's
Permanent Composition and
Musical Research
Competition. The new
version was made at
1984-85 Lux et umbra is
written for a string
group consisting of four
first and four second
violins, three violas,
three cellos and a double
bass. The conceptual
battle between darkness
and light is represented
by the instability
between the notes B and
C, and by the
compartmentation of the
group of fifteen strings
into divisi that provide
an independent
arrangement for each
instrument, thus
bestowing great substance
upon the texture of the
music. A cello cadence
emerges from a slow and
straightforward
beginning. A process of
contrasts then begins,
culminating in a molto
vivace passage of a
scherzando nature, which
alludes to the Baroque
concerti grossi. The
music once again plays
with chiaroscuro until
reaching its climax, from
which point the
conclusion slowly begins,
establishing itself in
the high register until
fading away. The work was
first performed at
Barcelona's Palau de la
Musica by the English
Chamber Orchestra,
directed by Enrique
Garcia Asensio, in 1987.
That same year, in the
newspaper El Pais, the
observations of the
composer and critic
Francesc Taverna-Bech
paid tribute to the
work's intelligence as
regards the use of and
search for instrumental
resources (in this case,
string instruments, about
which Cervello knows a
great deal), the skill
involved in endowing the
lyrical line with
tension, and a singular
touch that confers formal
essence upon the musical
discourse. In La
Vanguardia, Jordi Llovet
wrote that this is a work
in which, as is the case
with most of Cervello's
compositions, the
listener finds something
covertly religious, a
mysterious secret, a
transcendence linked to
the origins of
communication requiring
more than a single being,
which provides
excitement. In 1990, when
the Orquesta de Granada
(Orchestra of Granada)
performed the work at
Barcelona's Grec
festival, the critic
Cesar Calmell opined, in
the same newspaper, that
inch by inch, surely and
imperturbably, Cervello
built up a perfect world
that reflects the image
of the craftsman who, so
astonished at the
delights of his trade, is
unable to do anything but
turn the very backdrop of
tragedy into something
pleasant. Lux et umbra
was recorded by the
Orchestra Estatal of the
Hermitage, conducted by
Alexis Soriano (CD
SA01210 Fundacion Autor).

Comentari
os del Espanol: Se
trata de la version
definitiva de Biogenesis,
obra que habia escrito en
1976 en colaboracion con
su amigo Jorge Wagensberg
y que obtuvo el Primer
Premio, en el ano de su
creacion, en el Concurso
Permanente de Composicion
e Investigacion Musical
del Ministerio de
Educacion y Ciencia. La
nueva version fue
realizada en 1984-85. Lux
et umbra esta escrita
para un grupo de cuerda
integrado por cuatro
primeros violines, cuatro
segundos, tres violas,
tres violoncelos y un
contrabajo. El combate
filosofico entre la
oscuridad y la luz lo
lleva a cabo la
inestabilidad entre las
notas si y do y la
compartimentacion del
grupo de quince cuerdas
en unos divisi que llegan
a una escritura
independiente para cada
instrumento, otorgando
una gran importancia a la
textura sonora. De un
principio lento y
descarnado emerge una
cadencia del violonchelo.
A continuacion da
comienzo un proceso de
contrastes que culmina en
un pasaje molto vivace de
caracter scherzando que
alude a los concerti
grossi del barroco. La
musica juega de nuevo con
el claroscuro hasta
llegar a la cumbre sonora
iniciando el final
lentamente que se instala
en el registro agudo
hasta desvanecerse. La
estreno en el Palau de la
Musica de Barcelona la
English Chamber Orchestra
en el ano 1987 bajo la
direccion de Enrique
Garcia Asensio. Ese mismo
ano, en el periodico El
Pais, el compositor y
critico Francesc
Taverna-Bech reconocia en
sus comentarios la
inteligencia en el uso y
la busqueda de los
recursos instrumentales
-en este caso la cuerda,
de la que Cervello es
profundo conocedor-, la
destreza para revestir de
tension la linea lirica y
un tacto particular para
conferir entidad formal
al discurso sonoro. Jordi
Llovet, en La Vanguardia,
escribia que en esta
obra, se encuentra, como
en la mayor parte de la
produccion de Cervello,
algo secretamente
religioso, un arcano
misterioso, una
trascendencia vinculada a
los origenes de la
comunicacion
impracticable con el ser
unico que resulta
apasionante. En el ano
1990, cuando la Orquesta
de Granada la toco en el
Grec de Barcelona, era el
critico Cesar Calmell
quien, en el mismo
periodico consideraba que
Cervello construyo palmo
a palmo, segura e
imperturbablemente, un
mundo perfecto que
refleja la imagen del
artesano que, de tan
admirado con las delicias
de su oficio, no puede
hacer otra cosa que
convertir en agradable el
fondo mismo de la
tragedia. Lux et umbra
esta grabada por la
Orquesta Estatal del
Hermitage, dirigida por
Alexis Soriano (CD
SA01210 Fundacion Autor).

This
composition tells the
story of a quest to find
truth, which is relative
and constantly changing.
It is often to be found
in the place where water
becomes steam, somewhere
in Between on the
dividing line between
Ying and Yang, somewhere
in a twilight zone
between dark and light,
between Black and White.
Black, White & In Between
was conceived as a
concertino for violin and
string orchestra. It has
been recorded by the
London Philharmonic
Orchestra under direction
of the composer with
Marta Abraham as
soloist.

Drawing
on the contrast of
darkness against light,
this innovative work is
menacing at times,
seemingly innocent at
others, and nearly out of
control at its most
volatile moments. A
static rhythmic pulse
forms the backdrop for
the entire piece as
shadows seem to move
throughout darkness in a
playful yet deceitful
way. An invigorating and
unique work!
