Composed by C W Gluck. Arranged by Catriona Melville-Mason. Classical,Concert,Standards. Score and parts. 4 pages. C Melville-Mason #6481187. Published by C Melville-Mason (A0.956618).This is a lament from Christoph Willibald Gluck’s opera Orfeo ed Euridice, first performed in Vienna in October 1762. Orfeo has been permitted to bring his wife back from the underworld, provided he does not look at her during the return journey. He fails to meet this stipulation, turning to see her face, and so she dies. Grief-stricken, Orfeo asks what he will do without her.
Some critics deem this music too light in character for a true lament, while others argue that its simplicity reflects a grief too deep for more complex expression.
A charming addition to general repertoire, this piece rewards sensitive and expressive playing.
