“It is Dangerous to Read Newspapers,” a poem from the collection The Animals in That Country (1968) by Margaret Atwood, struck a strong chord for me at this moment of strife in Kosovo and the terrible tragedy in Littleton, Colorado. One is afraid to know the news these days and this setting deals with my own personal dread of coming to terms with our current reality. I have chosen to work with pitch materials suggested by the Schoenberg Suite for Piano, opus 25, as a private homage to the composer and as a challenge to my own muse.
"Il est dangereux de lire les journaux", un poème de la collection "The Animals in That Country" (1968) de Margaret Atwood, a resonné pour moi en ce moment des troubles au Kosovo et de la terrible tragédie de Littleton, au Colorado. On a peur de connaître l'actualité ces jours-ci et ce paramètre traite de ma propre peur de se faire à notre réalité actuelle. J'ai choisi de travailler avec des matériaux de hauteur proposé par le Schoenberg "Suite pour piano," opus 25, comme un hommage au compositeur et comme un défi à ma muse.
