This piece was written for Marc Destrubé and the Pacific Baroque Orchestra in memory of Nikolai Korndorf, who died suddenly in May of 2001. He had intended to write for the PBO, but had just started his piece at the time of his death. “Golden” is scored for chamber ensemble consisting of soprano and baroque strings: seven violins, two violas, violoncello, and violone. The subject of the piece is transformation. Musically, there is a transformation of sounds over the course of the work. At the beginning of the piece, the sounds are short and percussive, several of the instrumentalists play simple percussion instruments, and there is vocalizing (whispering) by some of the players. Later, there are more melodious and traditional string and vocal sounds. The text of the piece is based on the following story: Iron pyrite is a metallic crystal that glitters in the sun. There is a pool fed by a stream in Manitoba that carries the mineral in its sediment. Swimmers who immerse themselves in the waters of the pool emerge sparkling as if with flecks of sun on their skin. If you swim in this water, you will emerge golden.
Cette oeuvre a été composée à l'intention de Marc Destrubé et du Pacific Baroque Orchestra, à la mémoire de Nikolai Korndorf, mort subitement en mai 2001. Il comptait écrire une oeuvre pour le PBO, mais il venait à peine de commencer la pièce au moment de son décès. «Golden» fait appel à une formation de chambre formée d'une soprano et de cordes baroques : sept violons, deux altos, violoncelle et violone. Le sujet de l'oeuvre est la transformation. Au plan musical, les sons se transforment au cours de la pièce. Au commencement, les sons sont brefs et percussifs, plusieurs des instrumentistes jouent de simples instruments à percussion et certains d'entre eux émettent des chuchotements. Plus tard, on entend des sons plus mélodieux et plus traditionnels produits par les cordes et la voix. Le texte est basé sur l'histoire suivante : La pyrite de fer est un cristal métallique qui brille au soleil. Au Manitoba, il existe un marais alimenté par un ruisseau qui transporte ce minéral dans ses sédiments. Les baigneurs qui s'immergent dans l'eau de ce marais en ressortent étincelants, comme si des particules de soleil collaient à leur peau. Si vous nagez dans cette eau, vous en ressortirez doré.
