Poems of Love and War de Howard Skempton

Poems of Love and War

Compozitor Howard Skempton
en Limba Engleză Sheet music – 6 mai 2020
for SATB unaccompaniedPoems of Love and War sets a sequence of nine poems from 'Viking Poetry of Love and War' by Judith Jesch. The war poems are formal and celebratory, making vivid use of figures of speech known as 'kennings', while the love poems are more direct, and sometimes playful. Skempton's imaginative settings bring these striking texts to life, artfully using changing metres to evoke the sound of spoken word.

Recenzii

The settings [are] as sharply etched as Viking jewellery: lyrical, intense, concise, the one-syllable-per-note style adding to the sense of directness, of nothing being wasted.
