Based on the
poems by German poet Carl
Hauptmann (late
Romanticism) and the
English poet William
Wordsworth (early
Romanticism).
Carl Hauptmann was in
poor health as a child,
but highly intelligent.
He studied philosophy,
psychology and biology.
In the latter he was
admitted to the degree of
doctor. His marriage
provided financial
independence, so that he
could focus on his
studies.
Hauptmann
wrote various novels,
plays, poetry and
scientific works.
Night
Twilight floats above the
valley's night
mists
are hanging,
there's
a whispering brook.
Now the covering veil is
lifting quite:
come
and look!
See the
magicland before our
gaze:
tall as dreams
the silver mountains
stand,
crossed by
silent silver paths
shining from a secret
land.
Noble, pure,
the dreaming country
sleeps.
By the path
the shadow black and hogh
of a beach.
a wisp of
a white smoke creeps to
the dark'ning sky.
Where the valley is the
darkest hued countless
little lights shine
silently.
O my
soul!
Drink of
solitude!
Carl
Hauptmann
Wordsworth 'introduced' a
new type of poetry, based
on the speech of the
common man. This was his
answer to the poetry of
the classicism which was
bound by rigid rules. His
definition of poetry was:
the spontaneous overflow
of powerful feelings from
emotions recollected in
tranquility.
My
heart leaps up when I
behold a rainbow in the
sky
My heart
leaps up when I behold A
rainbow in the sky:
So was it when my life
began.
So is it now I
am a man.
So be it
when I shall grow
old,
Or let me
die!
The Child is
father of the Man.
And I could wish my days
to be Bound each to each
by natural
piety.
William
Wordsworth
In a
truly poetic manner
Harrie Janssen has
transformed the
contemplative thoughts of
the poets into two
compositions for Concert
Band.
Two
Symphonic Interludes is
gebaseerd op gedichten
van de Duitse dichter
Carl Hauptmann (laat
Romantiek) en de Engelse
dichter William
Wordsworth (vroeg
Romantiek).
Carl
Hauptmann had als kind
een zeer zwakke
gezondheidmaar was zeer
intelligent. Hij
studeerde Filosofie,
Psychologie en Biologie.
In het laatste vak
promoveerde hij. Het
huwelijk zorgde voor
financiele
onafhankelijkheid zodat
hij zich kon richten op
zijn verdere studie.
Hauptmannschreef enkele
romans, toneelstukken,
poëzie en
wetenschappelijke
werken.
