About
As in the songs of his great models, Goethe, Eichendorff, and Mörike are encountered among the poets of his texts – but he has also set Georg Trakl and Nikos Kazantzakis.
Although Asteriades’ songs are tonal, they pose supreme challenges to the interpreters; their grand leaps, extreme registers, and long melodic lines require a singer of superb skill and a pianist who supplies a finely felt and multifaceted accompaniment.
Asteriades draws on Martin Buber’s translation of the Book of Job as his source of inspiration in this five-part work. Buber’s text endeavors to reproduce the verbal rhythm of the Hebrew original and as a result assumes a very unique musicality. It is from a little seed that the composer develops the musical material evoking the moods of this famous sapiential work in a finely crafted setting.
