On this cd, three recent compositions of one of our nestors of modern music, Hans Kox.
Die Todesfrau, eine dramatische Legende
Based on a short novel, ‘Das Gericht des Meeres’, by German writer Gertrud Le Fort. It tells the story of a woman who could sing men to sleep, and if she continued singing, might even kill them.
Lalage’s Monologues
After a play by Edgar Allan Poe
Gedächtnislieder
Song cycle based on four poems by Paul Celan
Included in this issue is a DVD, “A portrait of Hans Kox”
The music of Hans Kox, born in 1930, occupies a unique place in Dutch music life. While fully engaging in the explorations of 20th C music, he never lost the connection with the European tradition, which he considers an instrument of reflection upon the human condition. This implies the notion of music as a psychological art, an art of expression, which he rightly sees as fundamental to the art form and in which the sound material is always a means to an end, which is: expression, communication. In the sixties however, new music in Holland came under the spell of modernist ideologies, which rejected this humanist approach as 'old-fashioned' and prescribed exploration of sound material as a form of liberation from 'traditionalist baggage'. Many Dutch composers of a younger generation followed this ideal, which made Kox' music seem outdated; but with the recent withering of modernism, the music of Hans Kox was rediscovered as a truly contemporary voice, bridging the historical distance between the early 20th and early 21st century and rejuvenating musical values from both tradition and 20th century sound explorations - but always as a means of expression.
