Recently awarded a British Composer Award, Ryan Wigglesworth’s orchestral song cycle 'Augenlieder' is now available as a study score. Setting poems by Robert Browning, Egon Schiele, Arthur Rimbaud and John Berryman, Augenlieder or Eye Songs was described as 'glittering with skill' by Geoff Brown in the Times. Masterfully orchestrated and with beautiful vocal writing, Wigglesworth is a composer to watch out for in the future.
Keep your eyes open when you kiss, a sonnet by John Berryman ends this evocative and rich song cycle, premièred by Claire Booth and the BBC Symphony Orchestra conducted by the composer at the Barbican Hall, London in November 2009. Geoff Brown in The Times describes Ryan Wigglesworth as having a ‘bright ear for glinting textures, [a] flair for taut motivic interplay [and] his conjuror’s ability to cast a spell. This is a strong new work.’ The Sonnet depicts a five month love affair and is set alongside a little known poem by Egon Schiele Visionen and poems by Robert Browning and Arthur Rimbaud.
