Three
Nocturnal Movements - For
Violin Solo, Violoncello
Solo And Orchestra by Per
Norgard (2015). Based on
Remembering Child for
Viola and
Orchestra(1986).
Premiered by Peter
Herresthal (violin) and
Jakob Kullberg (cello)
with Bergen Philharmonic
June 6th 2015 in Bergen,
Norway. The original
version was premiered by
Pinchas Zukerman and the
St. Paul' s Chamber
Orchestra, conducted by
Arturo di Mecke, on
September 12th 1986.
Programme Note: The news
of the tragic death of
Samantha Smith reached me
in the early stages of
preparation for the
commissioned work for
viola and chamber
orchestra. Already an
admirerer of this
childworker for peace and
nuclear disarmament, I
completed mywork strongly
inspired by this unique
and uniquely symbolic
fate of our time. Music
from humble sources -
including my composition
Beach Poppy , a choral
work from 1960 - are
woven into the texture of
the composition. I was
guided by the original
meaning of the word
remembering (making
whole, healing) in
opposition to
dismembering (tearing
apart): The healing power
of the child. (Per
Norgard).
