Souvenir de K

Access: Use of this item is restricted to the UNT Community
Recording of Itsvan Szigeti's Souvenir de K. The form of the piece as the composer describes it is: Inner form - determined by the content of the poem. It is built up by dream-like, blending episodes as a quasi-birth; Outer form - freely handled rondo and bridge; Rondo- The returns certain soundings/mostly singing separated vowels/ in a modulated - almost periodical - way; Bridge - The correspondence of the time-spheres of certain episodes; Ordering principle - mathematics, statistics as well as two numbers seven and nine. Seven is a "magic" number and prime number. Nine is the number of the months from conception to birth. The work consists of seven main episodes, within these there are two episodes reduced to their components: the first and the last one - which results nine parts. The arithmetical mean of seven and nine is eight. The poem has eight lines, each line having syllabes; Rhythm - is based on the poetic rules of the poem; Space - I wanted to make use of the possibilities of quadrophony in the most felicitous way in the work. Last but not least - aleatory has got a role in the work.
