Sol la ti la sol la do do ti
Teatro Avery Fisher Hall, Lincoln Center, NY, USA, 2 de noviembre, 1980.
MM: The Viennese composer Franz Schutzwarg was a really precocious child. At the age of three, when a score was placed before him, he could read the music to perfection. At the age of four, his father bought him another score.
One of the musicians who studied with Schutzwarg was our earlier acquaintance Hans Glockenkranz, who began to take lessons with Schutzwarg when he was five years old. Schutzwarg, that is. Glockenkranz was 23. At the lessons held by tiny Schutzwarg, it was not unusual to hear him telling one of his pupils: If you are so kind, finish counterpoint exercise number two, and afterwards, please, can you take me to do number one??
As an encore, Les Luthiers will now perform one lied from Schutzwarg scycle of
songs Der Tutti Fruhling. The Die Wiener Zeitung critic analyzed this lied in
the following manner: The song begins with a very bucolic theme which presents
our hero strolling through a flower-filled meadow. The second theme is that of
the birds which fill the park. Suddenly the second theme is interrupted by the
appearance of the third them, of a threatening character. It portends the storm.
A sub-theme also appears but does not portend the storm...it is the storm. Finally,
the storms retreats. There then reappears the initial theme: nature experiences
a luminous rebirth as if forecasting renewed joy, a sunny future and a slight
rise in temperature.
This lied is called: Sol la ti la sol la do do ti, and
was evidently composed by the precocious Schutzwarg before he had learned to talk.
