1) Composer's comment concerning the score: "In old Greece the Sirens, mysterious from
nature, showed themselves as appearances, living in the sea at
blossoming islands. With her enchanting songs they attracted sailors, who
passed the islands. Forgetting everything in the light, not having the
strength to resist the disastrous songs the sailors steered their ships to the
islands of the strange Sirens and the ships were wrecked at the near shore by
cliffs lain under water.
Movements: Sea; Island of the Sirens; Approach of ships; Song of the Sirens; Sinking of the ships ". |
