Original tekst

House Of Winter is a setting of four Christmas poems by George Mackay Brown, for AATBBB or SATBBB a cappella choir. The music is continuous, and though scored for unaccompanied voices, it becomes almost orchestra in its evocation of the calm, frozen stillness of an Orkney winter on the one hand, and the wildness of a December storm on the other. The setting is largely homphonic, in Davies’s 'adult' modal style and with a characteristic inventiveness of vocal scoring, as in the storm sequence, with its whistling upper voices and eruptive bass line. The first performance took place during the tenth St. Magnus Festival as part of a concert given by The King's Singers in Kirkwall in June 1986. Vocal score with piano accompaniment for rehearsal purposes.

Oversættelse

House Of Vinteren er en indstilling på fire Jul digte af George Mackay Brown, for AATBBB eller SATBBB a cappella kor. Musikken er kontinuerlig, og selvom scoret for uledsagede stemmer, bliver det næsten orkester i sin antydning af ro, frosne stilhed en Orkney vinter på den ene side, og den vildskab af en storm December på anden. Indstillingen er stort set homphonic, i Davies er 'voksen' modal stil og med en karakteristisk opfindsomhed vokal scoring, som i stormen rækkefølge, med sin fløjtende øvre stemmer og eruptive bas. Uropførelsen fandt sted under den tiende St. Magnus Festival som en del af en koncert givet ved Kongens Singers i Kirkwall i juni 1986. Korpartitur med klaverakkompagnement til generalprøve formål.
