KIBISHIPAUL

Danse Macabre

Esta obra se inspirou em diversas fontes, mas a música do quarteto “A Morte e a Donzela”, de Franz Schubert, foi especialmente útil: “A donzela: Ah, me deixe! Prithee, me deixe! Terrível homem de osso! Pois a vida é doce, é agradável. Vá! Deixe-me agora em paz! Vá! Deixe-me já em paz! A Morte: Dê-me tua mão, oh, donzela bela ao olhar, Pois eu sou um amigo, apesar de minha aparência aflitiva. Tenha coragem agora, e muito em breve Em meus braços tu deverás repousar suavemente!”

The inspiration for this comes from various sources, but there is a song from the ‘Death and the Maiden’ quartet by Franz Schubert I found particularly useful.

The Maiden:
Oh! leave me! Prithee, leave me! thou grisly man of bone!
For life is sweet, is pleasant.
Go! leave me now alone!
Go! leave me now alone!

Death:
Give me thy hand, oh! maiden fair to see,
For I’m a friend, hath ne’er distress’d thee.
Take courage now, and very soon
Within mine arms shalt softly rest thee!”
