Christopher Smart and
ZRS. Origins of the
Tarantella The tarantella
is a popular southern
Italian dance with
origins in the 11th
century. (There is even
some mention of the
tarantella in ancient
Greek mythology.) Of the
possible sources of the
dance, the most popular
comes from the villages
of Tanto and Tarentum
(little spider), Italy.
During harvest, workers
in the field were
sometimes bitten by the
tarantula spider. To
combat the poison, the
afflicted workers went
into a frenetic, almost
musical exorcism to sweat
the venom out of their
pores. In the millennium
since, the very energetic
nature of the dance has
remained, although the
curative focus of the
dance has given way to
more enjoyable endeavors,
even stately courtship.
Origins of the Text
Christopher Smart
(1722-1771), also known
as Kit Smart or Jack
Smart, was born in Kent,
England and suffered from
what is now believed to
be acute asthma and other
health issues as a child.
As such, he did not work
in the fields, but spent
much time reading and
writing, a passion that
he nurtured for a
lifetime. Well known in
London literary circles,
his career as a writer
floundered due to
mounting debts and his
falling out of favor with
the literary
establishment: Sadly, he
was forced to confinement
at St. Luke's Hospital
for Lunatics, though this
was based on his mounting
debt, and not on
insanity. (Confinement,
or debtor's prison, was
common during this period
if one's debts could not
be paid.) During his
confinement, he worked on
two of his most famous
works, Jubilate Agno and
A Song of David. (Part of
Jubilate Agno [Rejoice in
the Lamb] was set to
music by English
composer, Benjamin
Britten.) Smart's writing
style (which, at times,
bordered on the absurd),
along with his many
obsessions, lead to
frequent misperceptions
of his work and his
lucidity. In this present
work, portions of Smart's
Jubilate Agno were used
in mm. 24-31, 103-110 and
149-156. The remaining
text was gathered by the
composer, including the
rapid, almost
patter-like, delivery of
words from A-Z in the
alphabet. (Christopher
Smart had a preoccupation
with the alphabet.) These
words both rhyme and
accentuate the frenetic
nature of the spider
dance: theraphosa
[teh-rah-fo-sa] a genus
of tarantula spiders
bellicose
[beh-lee-ko-sah] hostile;
aggressive odiosa
[o-dee-o-sa] hateful;
vexation tenebrosa
[teh-neh-bro-sa]
creeping; dark nemorosa
[neh-mo-ro-sa] wooded;
shady lapidosa
[lah-pee-do-sa] stony
area; gritty The
convergence, then, of the
medieval tarantella
(spider dance), the
writings of a brilliant
poet who bordered on the
absurd, and the infusion
of strong, descriptive
and otherwise random,
rhyming words,
synthesizes to make
dramatic lyrics for this
work. About the Composer
Z. Randall Stroope is an
American composer and
conductor. He has served
as Professor of Music at
three universities (an
Endowed Professor at
two), conducted 47
all-state choirs, and
directed over 40 times at
Carnegie Hall, among
other American venues.
Randall guest conducts
full-time, and composes
from his home studios on
Merritt Island, Florida
and in Sandia Park, New
Mexico. Performance Notes
Text: In Latin, the r is
flipped; use s instead of
z on endings such as
phosa, cosa, and so on;
the Latin o is a cross
between oh and aw; in the
transliteration above, I
chose to simply use an o
for consistency. The
director will blend the
oh and aw in the
rehearsals to his/her own
preference. Lastly,
tarantula is pronounced
tah-rah-n-too-lah (avoid
teh-ran-choo-luh) within
the confines of this
text. Stomp: This can be
done by the entire
chorus, or just the first
row. It is as much visual
as it is auditory. The
string quartet is
preferred over piano when
that option affords
itself. I created a piano
score that is a viable
option and included it in
the piano/vocal score if
a performance uses
chorus/piano. The

English. When the
Texas Choral Consort
asked Welcher to write a
short prologue to Haydn's
The Creation, his first
reaction was that Haydn
already presents Chaos in
his introductory
movement. As he thought
about it, Welcher began
envisioning a truer void
to precede Haydn's
depiction of Chaos within
the scope of 18th-century
classical style - quoting
some of Haydn's themes
and showing human voices
and inhuman sounds in a
kind of pre-creation
melange of color, mood,
and atmosphere. Welcher
accepted this challenge
with the proviso that his
prologue would lead
directly into Haydn's
masterpiece without
stopping, and certainly
without applause in
between. Scored for mixed
chorus and Haydn's
instrumentation, Without
Form and Void is a
dramatically fresh yet
pragmatic enhancement to
deepen any performance of
Haydn's The Creation.
Orchestral score and
parts are available on
rental. When Brent
Baldwin asked me to
consider writing a short
prologue to THE CREATION,
my first response was
“Why?â€Â
THE CREATION already
contains a prologue;
it’s called
“Representation of
Chaosâ€, and
it’s
Haydn’s way of
showing the formless
universe. How could a
new piece do anything but
get in the way? But
the more I thought about
it, the more it made
sense. The Age of
Enlightenment’s
idea of
“Chaos†was
just extended
chromaticism, no more
than Bach used (in fact,
Bach went
further).Perhaps there
might be a way to use the
full resources of the
modern orchestra (or at
least, a Haydn-sized
orchestra) and the modern
chorus to really present
a cosmic soup of unborn
musical atoms, just
waiting for
Haydn’s sure touch
to animate them.Â
Perhaps it could even
quote some of
Haydn’s themes
before he knew them
himself, and also show
human voices and inhuman
sounds in a kind of
pre-creation mélange
of color, mood, and
atmosphere. So I
accepted the challenge,
with the proviso that my
new piece not be treated
as some kind of
“overtureâ€,
but would instead be
allowed to lead directly
into Haydn’s
masterpiece without
stopping, and certainly
without applause. I
crafted this five minute
piece to begin with a
kind of “music of
the spheresâ€
universe-hum, created by
tuned wine glasses and
violin harmonics. The
chorus enters very soon
after, with the opening
words of Genesis
whispered simultaneously
in as many languages as
can be found in a
chorus. The first two
minutes of my work are
all about unborn human
voices and unfocused
planetary sounds,
gradually becoming more
and more
“coherentâ€
until we finally hear
actual pitches, melodies,
and words. Three of
Haydn’s melodies
will be heard, to be
specific, but not in the
way he will present them
an hour from now.Â
It’s almost as if
we are listening inside
the womb of the universe,
looking for a faint
heartbeat of worlds,
animals, and people to
come. At the end of
the piece, the chorus
finally finds its voice
with a single word:
“God!â€,Â
and the orchestra finally
finds its own pulse as
well. The unstoppable
desire for birth must now
be answered, and it
is----by Haydn’s
marvelous oratorio. I
am not a religious man in
any traditional
sense. Neither was
Haydn, nor Mozart, nor
Beethoven. But all of
them, as well as I, share
in what is now called a
humanistic view of how
things came to be, how
life in its many forms
developed on this planet,
and how Man became the
recorder of history.Â
The gospel according to
John begins with a parody
of Genesis: “In
the beginning was the
Word, and the Word was
with God, and the Word
was God.â€Â  I
love that phrase, and
it’s in that
spirit that I offer my
humble
“opener†to
the finest work of one of
the greatest composers
Western music has ever
known. My piece is
not supposed to sound
like Haydn.Â
It’s supposed to
sound like a giant
palette, on which a
composer in 1798 might
find more outrageous
colors than his era would
permit…but which, I
hope, he would have been
delighted to hear. $3.50 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 1 to 2 weeks | | |
