Ursprunglig

Version for String Quartet. Score available. KP00510. The composer writes. 'In February 1987 I saw in the Tate Gallery in London a painting by the Victorian English painter John William Waterhouse. The painting kept haunting my memory, and as I at the same time planned to write a piece for solo viola, my ideas for the music and the memory of the painting fused more and more. I decided, then, to let my piece borrow the title of Waterhouse’s paint-ing. 'The Lady of Shalott'. The picture of a mad-like, pale, and perhaps singing woman alone in a boat without sculls, which calmly slips out from the rush growth of the river is an illustration for the ending of Alfred Tennyson’s poem by the same title, which again plaits into the old English legends about King Arthur. My piece tries to meander - like the river at Camelot - among these sources. As suggested above the piece was originally written for viola solo. The version for string quartet is from 1993.

Översättning

Version för stråkkvartett. Betyg tillgänglig. KP00510. Kompositören skriver. "I februari 1987 såg jag i Tate Gallery i London en målning av den viktorianska engelsk målare John William Waterhouse. The painting kept haunting my memory, and as I at the same time planned to write a piece for solo viola, my ideas for the music and the memory of the painting fused more and more. I decided, then, to let my piece borrow the title of Waterhouse’s paint-ing. 'The Lady of Shalott'. Bilden av en galen-liknande, blek, och kanske sjunger kvinna ensam i en båt utan årorna, som lugnt glider ut från rush tillväxten av floden är en illustration för ändelsen av Alfred Tennysons dikt med samma titel, som återigen flätor in i de gamla engelska legenderna om kung Arthur. Min pjäs försöker slingra - liksom floden vid Camelot - bland dessa källor. As suggested above the piece was originally written for viola solo. The version for string quartet is from 1993.
