Xavier
Montsalvatge (1912-2002)
was a consummate Spanish
composer who explored
many 20th century styles
including Impressionism,
Serialism, Modernism, and
Wagnerism, while
maintaining a distinctive
Catalan character. He
first came to prominence
in 1940, after the
Spanish Civil War, and is
seen to represent the
lost generation which was
active in the second half
of the 1900's. He helped
to advance Spanish music
from the Nationalistic
style that dominated
before the war, and began
to introduce West Indian
influences into European
music. Self-Parafrasis
for Clarinet and Piano
was written around 1968,
when Montsalvatge was
just coming into the
height of his
compositional prowess.
Itis presented here in a
high-quality glossy
cover, and would make the
perfect gift for any
clarinettist.

The
title of the chamber
piece Self-Quotations
already carries the
danger of sentimental
retrospect. Of course,
Jeney rejects this
possibility: he
summarizes the
confrontation with his
own career so far not in
a large-format
composition intended to
be representative, but in
a chamber work written
for five instruments.
Self-control and the
tension that comes with
it is also manifested in
the fact how he
highlights the
self-quotations from
their original
environment, completely
transforms them, and, as
ifthey were just found
objects, is preoccupied
with what he can do with
them. Distancing oneself
from erupting emotions is
associated with
playfulness in the
Self-Quotations. The
playfulness in Jeney's
work can be grasped in a
variety of compositional
processes, allof which
call attention to the
fact that in this
retrospective work the
composer was primarily
concerned with how to
construct a composition
from as few and simple
musical elements as
possible. (Anna
Dalos).

The Book of
Urizen is a work for
concert band, solo
soprano, and a male
narrator in which sound
collages of religious
expressions are used. The
piece is inspired by the
compelling visionary poem
of the same name (which
the poet
illustratedhimself) by
the Englishman William
Blake (1757-1827), who
occupies a unique
position in western
literature and the visual
arts. He was not just a
poet and a writer, but he
was also a graphic
artist, a painter, an
illustrator, a
spiritualist, areligious
visionary, and a mystic
philosopher. For the
performance of this work,
a professional sound
system, including two
microphones and a CD
player, is needed. The
three sound collages are
three separate tracks on
the enclosed CD and can
beplayed easily at the
right moment. The Book
of Urizen bears
resemblance to Genesis
and Exodus, of which the
contents form the basis
of the Christian, Jewish,
and Islamic faith. Blake
adhered to the principle
that all religions are in
fact one,and that deities
reside in human beings.
In The Book of
Urizen this is
represented in “The
Net of Religion,â€
which is spanned over the
earth by Urizen. The
sound collages, compiled
by Jacob de Haan in the
studio, find their origin
inJerusalem, the Holy
City, where the
afore-mentioned faiths
“come
together.†In the
first movement of
this composition, The
Vision, Urizen
prepares his vision of
the world, and he
presents this to the
“Eternals.â€
His vision is
rejected,and Urizen locks
himself up in his own
abstract world. When he
does emerge again, he is
confronted with rage by
the gathered Eternals.
Urizen flees the wrath of
the Eternals, “the
flames of eternal
fury,†and enwombs
himself in his own world.
Whenthe Eternals see
Urizen in his
“stony
sleep,†they wonder
if this is death. The
blacksmith Los is torn by
grief because of the
isolation of Urizen. It
brings him to rouse his
fires, prepare his forge,
and to give
Urizen’s world
concrete form. In
thesecond
movement, The
Creation,
Urizen’s world,
but also man, woman, and
child are created. Los is
horrified with the
appearance of
Urizen’s body. He
mourns and pities Urizen,
and from his blood a
female form comes into
being, with thename
Enitharmon. The Eternals,
fearful of the female
form, decide to erect a
tent to obstruct their
view to eternity.
Enitharmon and Los beget
a son, called Orc. Los
baptizes him as a child
of the “fallen
world.†Orc is fed
at Enitharmon’s
breast,which makes a
girdle of jealousy
restrict Los’
chest. He takes the child
to the top of the
mountain and chains him
down. The cries of Orc
awaken Urizen, who
explores his world
creating instruments of
scientific measurement to
do so. Los encircles
theface of Enitharmon
from the sight of Urizen
and Orc. She then
populates the earth by
giving birth to an
enormous race.The

concepts and strategies
for successful
interaction to promote
therapeutic learning in
children with special

their daily adventures,
and their membership
within a larger
community. Also included
is a helpful

CD as well as suggestions
for movement and/or

Text: Hauff, Wilhelm /
Liebenspacher-Helm,
Sigrid.
This is the
bizarre and fantastic
story of the boy Jacob
who is transformed into a
dwarf with a huge nose by
an mysterious fairy. He
spends seven years in the
fairy's palace, and
during this time becomes
a marvellous cook. The
years go by as in a
dream, and he does not
imagine that he is in
truth in the body of a
loathsome dwarf. When he
sees his parents again,
they do not recognize
him. He is mocked and
rejected by everyone. But
Jakob is not
disheartened! He has to
protect himself and
survive setbacks and
tests until at the end of
the story he regains his
true form. Zwerg Nase,
based on the fairy tale
of the same name by
Wilhelm Hauff, is a story
which gives courage and
hope. It is a story which
tells of self-confidence
and friendship. There are
the animals in the
fairy's palace, who stand
alongside Zwerg Nase, and
above all his girlfriend
the goose Mimi who is
herself an enchanted
maiden and is saved from
the oven by Zwerg Nase.
Mimi knows which magic
herb can give him back
his true form. And
everything turns out well
in the end. The text and
music convey the magical
content of the fairy tale
in a playful, yet
convincing way. The
libretto is catchy in its
verse and rhyme, comic
ideas alternate with
touching and atmospheric
passages. Classic and
contemporary elements mix
together in the setting,
oriental borrowings stand
alongside rhythmic pieces
such as boogie-woogie,
tango, and waltz. Written
for chorus and solo
voices, the Singspiel is
suitable for children and
young people from 6 to 14
years. It is about an
hour in length. This is

content of the fairy tale
in a playful, yet
convincing way. The
libretto is catchy in its
verse and rhyme, comic
ideas alternate with
touching and atmospheric
passages. Classic and
contemporary elements mix
together in the setting,
oriental borrowings stand
alongside rhythmic pieces
such as boogie-woogie,
tango, and waltz. Written
for chorus and solo
voices, the Singspiel is
suitable for children and
young people from 6 to 14

hour in length.
