From Music in Words
ENOCH ARDEN
Words by Alfred, Lord Tennyson
Music by Richard Strauss
Transcription for string trio by Molly von Gutzeit
May 15 – 17
The narrative poem ENOCH ARDEN was published by ALFRED, LORD TENNYSON in 1864 during his tenure as England’s poet laureate. The poem tells the emotionally charged story of a fisherman-turned-merchant sailor who becomes lost at sea, and it gives its name to the legal precedent whereby a person can remarry in the event of a spouse’s absence and presumed death. In 1897, RICHARD STRAUSS set the poem as a recitation for speaker and piano. These performances mark the world premiere of a transcription for string trio accompaniment by Molly von Gutzeit.
