“Diesen
Kuss der ganzen Welt!”
is a famous line from the
“Ode to Joy” by
Friedrich Schiller, the
text set by Beethoven in
his ninth symphony. As
this work was
commissioned by the
Dallas Symphony Orchestra
to be on the same program
with the Ninth, this
quote was chosen to be
both the title and the
message: that all
humankind is together in
this world, we are all
related, and we should
celebrate our humanity
with love and joy. In
addition to the title,
there are several musical
connections to
Beethoven's Ninth in this
work: the opening tremolo
in the violins; the use
of recitative-like
phrases in the cellos;
the shapes of some
melodic fragments; the
presence of timpani
solos.
This Kiss
