Original tekst

Written for David Heyes as part of his "Fizz at 50" project. "Gerty Goat Scuffer". in case you wondered. is one of many nick-names we had for a much loved family dog - officially named "Heavy Hetty" from a character in an imaginative children's book of that name. In my youth as a composition student at the RAM, I discovered that walking a dog for an hour a day is the anti-dote to the long hours required as a composer, "sat you yer bum" writing at a desk, and. in those pre-computer years. writing endless parts out by hand. First of these 'best friends' was a glorious Gordon Setter called "Sophie",. my first love. , who accompanied Pat and I on our honeymoon across Scotland. Thirty years later, we were privileged to enjoy the company of three therapeutic beasts. "Merlin". a prize winning Pyrenean Mountain Dog. , "Gael". an over energetic Scottish Border Collie. and "Hetty". a unique cross between a Pyrenean Mountain Dog and a St. Bernard - something of a "kennel-maid's Accident". Hetty. see picture. is unfortunately no longer with us now. She had an extraordinary puppy-hood that left her with titanium plates holding her back legs together. Hetty was surprisingly active though, right through to the age of nearly 10 - speciality. chasing Pheasants in the grounds at Strathmashie - but she became progressively hampered by arthritis, and 'scuffed along' on her vast hairy pads with a swagger. She also used to remind our children of a mountain goat. Songs have been written about her, but this is the first instrumental work that she has inspired. The pervading thematic motive of the piece. heard from the outset. , cheekily alludes to an. over. famous Saint-Saëns work for double bass. but no insult is intended to Hetty. The increasingly roving tonality and unusually sudden shifts of key, combined with the use of jazz chords, combines to present a short but heartfelt tribute to a unique animal that provided untold pleasure to all she came into contact with, simply by just being "herself".

Skrevet til David Heyes som en del af hans "Fizz ved 50" projekt. "Gerty Goat Scuffer". hvis du undret. er en af ​​mange nick-navne, vi havde for en meget elsket familiehund - officielt navngivet "Heavy Hetty" fra en karakter i en fantasifuld børnebog af samme navn. I min ungdom som en sammensætning studerende på RAM, opdagede jeg, at gå en hund for en time om dagen er den anti-dote til de mange timer, der kræves som komponist, "sad du yer bum" skriftligt ved et skrivebord, og. i de præ-computer år. skrive endeløse dele i hånden. Først af disse "bedste venner" var en herlig Gordon Setter kaldet "Sophie",. min første kærlighed. , Der ledsagede Pat og jeg på vores bryllupsrejse i hele Skotland. Tredive år senere, vi var privilegerede at nyde selskabet af tre terapeutiske bæster. "Merlin". en prisvindende pyrenæiske Mountain hund. "Gael". en over energisk skotsk Border Collie. og "Hetty". en unik krydsning mellem en pyrenæiske Mountain hund og en St. Bernard - noget af en "kennel-maid ulykke". Hetty. se billede. er desværre ikke længere med os nu. Hun havde en ekstraordinær hvalp-hætte, der efterlod hende med titanium plader holdt hende bagben sammen. Hetty var overraskende aktiv selv, helt frem til en alder af næsten 10 - speciale. jagter fasaner på grunden på Strathmashie - men hun blev gradvist hæmmet af gigt, og "scuffed langs 'på hendes enorme behårede pads med en swagger. Hun også til at minde vores børn af en bjergged. Der er skrevet sange om hende, men det er første instrumentale arbejde, hun har inspireret. Den altgennemtrængende tematisk motiv af stykket. hørt fra starten. , Tilføjede hentyder til en. løbet. berømte Saint-Saëns arbejde for kontrabas. men ingen spot skal Hetty. Den stadig roving tonalitet og usædvanligt pludselige skift af nøgle, kombineret med anvendelsen af ​​jazz akkorder, kombinerer at præsentere en kort men dybfølt hyldest til en unik dyr, forudsat umådelige glæde til alle, hun kom i kontakt med, blot ved bare at være "sig selv".
