Oorspronklik

In Danceries , by Kenneth Hesketh, the melodies themselves are a mixture of old and new. Where the old occurs it has been adapted in mood and composition and is often interspersed with completely new material. The contemporary harmonies and rhythms bring a breath of new into these themes and add drama to the suite. The first movement, Lull Me Beyond Thee , is gentle and lilting, almost a barcarole, this movement is very much a reverie. The original tune had the name Poor Robin’s Maggot , a rather disconcerting title. Maggot, however, in seventeenth-century parlance meant whim or fancy. The second, Catching of Quails , is a colourful, buoyant scherzo on an original melody. The thematic material is shuttled around the band to contrast with full-blooded tuttis. The last few bars fade to almost nothing, before a final surprise. My Lady’s Rest is a tender pavane, also on an original melody, with Moorish leanings. Beautiful solo passages, expressive contrapuntal writing and warm tuttis provide an opportunity to show off the most lyrical of playing. The final movement, Quodling’s Delight is a clever combination of the 17th century melody, Goddesses , with an original contrasting melody, creating a rousing and exuberant finale to the work.

Vertaling

In Danceries deur Kenneth Hesketh, die melodieë self is 'n mengsel van ou en nuwe. Waar die ou kom dit in die gemoed en samestelling is aangepas en word dikwels afgewissel met heeltemal nuwe materiaal. Die kontemporêre harmonieë en ritmes bring 'n asem van die nuwe in hierdie temas en voeg drama aan die suite. Die eerste beweging, stilte My verder nie, is sag en vrolike, byna 'n barcarole, hierdie beweging is baie 'n gedroom. Die oorspronklike tune het die naam Swak Robin se Made, 'n eerder ontstellend titel. Made egter in sewentiende-eeuse omgangstaal bedoel willekeur of fancy. Die tweede, vang van kwartels, is 'n kleurvolle, lewendige scherzo op 'n oorspronklike melodie. Die tematiese materiaal shuttled rondom die band te kontrasteer met volbloed tuttis. Die laaste paar bars vervaag tot byna niks, voordat 'n finale verrassing. My Lady's Rest is 'n tender Pavane, ook op 'n oorspronklike melodie, met Moorse neigings. Pragtige solo gange, ekspressiewe kontrapuntale skryf en warm tuttis bied 'n geleentheid om te wys af die mees liriese van speel. Die finale beweging, Quodling se Delight is 'n slim kombinasie van die 17de eeu melodie, Godinne, met 'n oorspronklike kontrasterende melodie, die skep van 'n opruiende en uitbundige finale aan die werk.
