Beschreibung:
Day And Night (1982) by Per Nørgård. Programme Note DAY AND NIGHT (1982) - 2 short songs for alto, piano (and cello ad lib.). The contrasting constellation of these two poems (Ted Hughes' 'A Kill' and William Shakespeare's 'How Silver sweet sound', from Romeo and Juliet, act 2, III) do not call for much explanation by the composer: the world's woes in Hughes' poem (in the form of delivery problems during a child's birth) is follow by the balsamic words of love - to the night - by Shakespeare. Another ode to the night might have been chosen, I do not know any other that, in so few words, creates such an atmosphere of love and enchanted night as thispoem by Shakespeare. Per Nørgård
