Description:
Jaakko Mäntyjärvi: 4 Shakespeare Songs
Composed in 1984, 4 Shakespeare Songs by Finnish composer Jaakko Mäntyjärvi is one of the most important works of modern a cappella literature for mixed choir. In this cycle, Mäntyjärvi sets four iconic texts from the plays of William Shakespeare to music with an impressive stylistic variety. The work includes the movements Come Away, Death (Twelfth Night), a deeply melancholic lament, the rhythmically shimmering Lullaby (A Midsummer Night's Dream), the energetic and theatrical witches' dance Double, Double Toil and Trouble (Macbeth) and the atmospheric Full Fathom Five (The Tempest), characterized by bell-like sounds. Mäntyjärvi succeeds in combining traditional choral movements with modern sound effects and a gripping interpretation of the text, making the piece a favorite for ambitious chamber choirs worldwide.
