The piece was written in 2003, commissioned by the Budapest Spring Festival. The process of the work follows the line of the composer-s personal interpretation of the original poem. In this song the original dark, grim ending appears as a sort of cathartic denouement. The theme is love versus mortality. The work is a kind of wholly composed song written in the 21st century; its form derives basically from the text. The narrator begins the story in Sprechgesang and in the final lines of the poem tries to sing in a normal singing voice. This acoustic line is followed by the merging of the sinus tones into the clarinet parts. Thus, basically, a peculiar change of tone introduced for dramatic purposes constitutes the essence of the song. First performance: March 2003.
