Original tekst

Five Flower Songs, Op. 47. 1950. SATB a cappella. Composed by Benjamin Britten. 1913-1976. For Choral, Chorus. SATB a cappella. BH Large Choral. 44 pages. Boosey & Hawkes #M060095115. Published by Boosey & Hawkes. HL.48011505. for unaccompanied SATB.. Texts. To Daffodils - Robert Herrick. The Succession of the Four Sweet Months - Robert Herrick. Marsh Flowers - George Crabbe. The Evening Primrose - John Clare. The Ballad of Green Broom - Anon. Publisher. Boosey & Hawkes. Difficulty level. 3-4. These lovely, classic part-songs were written as a 25th wedding anniversary present for Dorothy and Leonard Elmhirst of Dartington Hall. Apparently Britten chose the subject matter because they were keen botanists. Whatever the reason for the choice, it was a supremely happy one and brought from Britten a set of pieces which, while in a direct line of descent from the classic part-songs of Elgar, Stanford and Parry, are entirely original. These songs are designed as a set. The mood-scape shows that Britten was keenly aware of the variety needed to satisfy performers and audience between bookends. The unsentimental originality of To Daffodils with its tempo marking of Allegro impetuoso focusing on the speedy demise of the flower which is of course a metaphor for the passing of life. the clever division into four voices for the four months in The Succession of the Four Sweet Months and that beautifully simple device at the end where each month is named and forms a lovely cadence. the bitter-sweet Marsh Flowers to its poem by George Crabbe and the way Britten makes a slightly menacing atmosphere relieved only by the description of gentler plants. the ever-so-slightly sentimental Evening Primrose, the slow movement of the set. and finally Green Broom, a tour-de-force of humour which is crowned, at its heart, by Britten's slightly hysterical altos singing 'Go fetch me the boy'. The gradual accelerando throughout this piece leading to the final flourish makes this a wonderful and exciting finale to a set of part-songs which should be at the heart of any choirs repertoire. Points for choral directors to look out for include the tempo of To Daffodils. The key is in the direction Allegro impetuoso. Somewhere in the region of crotchet 116 should be the aim. Within that tempo use the words to colour the interpretation. Look out, as always, for Britten's carefully marked articulation and watch out for the big dynamic contrasts and colours. Tuning is the issue in both No.2 and No.3. In the opening of Marsh Flowers be careful of the size of intervals and in the second bar use the two anchors of F and C# to try to ensure that pitch doesnt slip. The return to a note which has already been sung should always be fractionally higher. masked by the change of vowel. thus ensuring that the pitch is always kept in place. In Green Broom it is issues of ensemble more than anything which provide the major challenge. This, and the stepping of increases in speed which should be measured so that the end does not become dangerously out of hand. Duration. 12 minutes. Paul Spicer 2011. To Daffodils. The Succession of the Four Sweet Months. Marsh Flowers. The Evening Primrose. Ballad of Green Broom.

Tilsyneladende Britten valgte emnet, fordi de var ivrige botanikere. Uanset årsagen til valget, det var en yderst glad og bragt fra Britten et sæt af stykker, der, selv i en direkte linje af afstamning fra de klassiske del-sange af Elgar, Stanford og Parry, er helt original. Disse sange er udformet som et sæt. Stemningen-scape viser, at Britten var meget opmærksomme på de mange forskellige behov for at tilfredsstille performere og publikum mellem bogstøtter. Den usentimental originalitet Til Påskeliljer med sit tempo mærkning af Allegro impetuoso fokusere på den hurtige død af blomsten som naturligvis er en metafor for vedtagelsen af ​​livet. den kloge opdeling i fire stemmer for de fire måneder i rækken af ​​de fire Søde måneder, og at smukt simpel enhed ved den ende, hvor hver måned er opkaldt og danner en dejlig kadence. de bitter-søde Marsh blomster til sin digt af George Crabbe og den måde Britten gør en lidt truende atmosfære lettet kun af beskrivelsen af ​​blidere planter. den evigt-så-lidt sentimental Evening Primrose, den langsomme bevægelse af sættet. og endelig Green Broom, en tour-de-force for humor, som er kronet, på sit hjerte, af Brittens lidt hysterisk Altos sang 'Go hente mig dreng'. Den gradvise accelerando hele denne brik, der fører til den endelige blomstre gør dette til en vidunderlig og spændende finale til et sæt af del-sange, som bør være kernen i enhver kor repertoire. Point for korledere at se ud for omfatte tempoet i Til Påskeliljer. Det centrale er i den retning, Allegro impetuoso. Et eller andet sted i området af kvarte 116 Målet bør være. Inden for dette tempo bruger ordene til at farve fortolkning. Look out, som altid, for Brittens nøje afmærket artikulation og se ud for de store dynamiske kontraster og farver. Tuning er spørgsmålet i både No.2 og No.3. В открытии Марш Цветы будьте осторожны размера интервалами, а во втором баре использовать два якоря F и C. En tilbagevenden til et notat, som allerede er blevet sunget bør altid være en anelse højere. maskeret af ændringen i vokalen. derved sikre, at banen altid holdes på plads. In Green Broom er det spørgsmål om ensemble mere end noget, der giver den største udfordring. Dette og intensivering af stigninger i hastighed, der skal måles, således at enden ikke bliver faretruende ud af hånden. Varighed. 12 minutter. Paul Spicer 2011. Til Påskeliljer.
