Spoken

»That old sorcerer has vanished / And for once has gone away! / Spirits called by him, now banished, / My commands shall soon obey.« So begins Goethe’s famous ballad »The Sorcerer’s Apprentice«, in which the sorcerer’s pupil soon realises that »Spirits that I’ve cited / My commands ignore«. Goethe’s rich imagery inspired Paul Dukas, who was ten years the senior of fellow French composer Maurice Ravel, to compose a fantastic symphonic poem.

The work, which is subtitled »Scherzo«, is brilliantly orchestrated and scintillates with inspired motivic ideas. Ravel was another master of the high art of instrumentation and his immortal »Boléro« is the highlight of this quintessentially French evening.

English

»Hat der alte Hexenmeister / Sich doch einmal wegbegeben! / Und nun sollen seine Geister / Auch nach meinem Willen leben«. So beginnt Goethes berühmte Ballade »Der Zauberlehrling«, in der der Zögling des Zaubermeisters schnell merkt: »Die ich rief, die Geister, / Werd’ ich nun nicht los«. Paul Dukas, der gerade mal zehn Jahre ältere Landsmann des Komponisten Maurice Ravel, hat sich von Goethes bildreichen Zeilen zu einer fantastischen Tondichtung inspirieren lassen.

Das im Untertitel als »Scherzo« bezeichnete Werk brilliert mit genialen motivischen Einfällen und ist fantastisch instrumentiert. Die hohe Kunst der Instrumentation beherrschte bekanntlich auch Ravel selbst, dessen unsterblicher »Boléro« den Höhepunkt dieses durch und durch französischen Abends bildet.
