Vintersalme-Musik (1980) - Choral prelude for Organ. Orig. title: Vintersalme.
Programme note:
When in 1975 I had finished composing my 3rd Symphony (begun in 1973), I wrotethree simple melodies for two psalm texts by Ole Sarvig “The Year” and “Choral Hymn”. One of these was later included in the Danish Hymnbook under the title “Året – Som åretgår” (The Year).
These three “Sarvig tunes” were derived from the same material as the second movement of the symphony and could be harmonized together in several differenttemporelationships at the same time - like fractals. This inspired me to write several choral and instrumental works in the following decade based on these melodies: for instance “Frost Psalm”, “WinterCantata”, “Cycles”, “Cantica” and this piece for organ, all coloured by the Nordic and mythic poem by Sarvig, the beginning of which goes:
The passing year will pass itsdeep
So shall our mind reach winter´s sleep.
And as the tree stands leafles, bare,
Is winter´s realms: our minds aware.
