River__hourglass of water metaphor of eternity

I enter you more and more changed

so I could be a cloud a fish a rock

while you are the same like a clock that measures

the metamorphoses of the body and descents of the spirit

slow disintegration of tissues and love

I who am born of clay

want to be your pupil

and learn the spring the Olympian heart

o cool torch rustling column

bedrock of my faith and my despair

river teach me stubbornness and endurance

so in the last hour I become worthy

of rest in the shade of the great delta

in the holy triangle of the beginning and of the end

Zbigniew Herbert, ‘To the river’ from Report from the Besieged City © 1987

English translation © 1987 John Carpenter and Bogdana Carpenter Oxford University Press

Programme notes

river teach me, for mezzo-soprano and string quartet, sets to music the English version of ‘To the river’, a poem by Zbigniew Herbert

(1924-1998), from the collection Report from the Besieged City, first published in Warsaw in 1983, and translated into English by John

and Bogdana Carpenter in 1985.

I discovered Herbert’s poems while reading a beautiful collection of poetry essays by Seamus Heaney, The Government of the Tongue.

Since then I’ve been fascinated by the particular way in which Herbert pitches his voice, pursuing the truth with a language both simple

and profound. Before writing river teach me I set to music another poem by the same collection, ‘The Divine Claudius’, for narrator and

small ensemble.

Herbert concluded one of his sketches with these words: We are the ones who are poor, very poor. The great majority of contemporary art comes out in favour of chaos, gesticulating in vacuity or recounting the history of its own sterile spirit. All the Old Masters, without exception, could say with Racine: 'We work in order to please the public', which means that they believed in the sense of their work, and in the possibility of inter-human understanding... Praise be to such naiveté.

Per formance Notes

In the vocal part please refer to the International Phonetic Alphabet conventions for the correct pronunciation of the phonemes

between square brackets.
