Georg Philipp Telemann – Sonata in E minor for Flute and Harpsichord

Performers

Alex Murray – traverso (flute by Goulding, late 1700s, pitch A=440)

Martha Goldstein – harpsichord


Instruments & Historical Context

The harpsichord, built in 1600 by Pisarensis of Pisa, belongs to Mr. and Mrs. Philip Padelford and is preserved at the University of Washington School of Music.

It was restored by Lutz Bungart and Glenn White, and lent for this recording by Terry Moore, Director of Music at the University of Washington at the time.

All tuning is mean-tone temperament, giving the performance a historically authentic color.

The basso continuo was realized by Martha Goldstein.


Overview

This sonata, typical of Telemann’s elegant chamber music style, highlights the lyrical dialogue between the traverso and harpsichord.
Rich in expressive melodies and subtle counterpoint, the work balances virtuosity with graceful ornamentation, exemplifying the refined aesthetic of early 18th-century German chamber music.

Georg Philipp Telemann – Sonata in E minor for Flute and Harpsichord

Did you ever fear the blank page ? i often do !

Shut up and play !

When doubt suddenly grips me
a blank page
not a single note
my head falters
and then everything freezes

When suddenly the desire eludes me
I can't find the words for my chords
there's no point in lying to myself

Then comes
despair
I can't even move my fingers anymore
I'm really just doing anything
but sometimes I still hear a little voice
that near me
whispers softly
Shut up and play!

When giving it all up is tempting
yes, it's silly
I agree
but I can't help it when it haunts me

lyrics

You feel that itch 
I know you do
I can feel it too
We should be talking in the sun
Not in the night when things are dark

You feel that itch I know you do
Darling, I want to be next to you
Like the way it was when we were young and free

Don't worry 
Don't worry bout me
Don't worry 
Don't worry bout me
Cuz I worry bout you
Yes I do
You know I do

I see the looks they give me
The pity 
but i know it's true
They don't need to worry bout me
They should worry bout you
Worry bout you
They should worry bout you

They should worry bout you
Worry bout you
They should worry bout you

Worry Bout You

Igor Lisul has his track "A Better World" (https://soundcloud.com/igorli/a-better-world). 
I transcribed it, and rearranged for accoustic guitar, strings, vibraphone, a pad and mallets. 

better world

A bright, determined anthem for anyone willing to fight, no matter their strength or skill.

The upbeat guitars and driving rhythm capture a fierce spark rising in the smallest moments, a flicker like fireflies that refuses to burn out. It’s a reminder that even the faintest glow can stand its ground against the darkness.

"Sweet Old School Rock N' Roll" tells the story of a 14 year old kid who buys his first electric guitar at a second hand store and practices playing it in his parents' tool shed outback until his fingers bleed literally. He plays his guitar with lots of gusto and energy at high school dances and impresses the good looking girls. The preacher man in school warns him that Rock N' Roll, electric guitars and drums are evil. Nonetheless, he decides to sell his soul for Rock N' Roll to the devil who is female of course, but has no regrets making this his true calling in life.

INCIDENTE A MEDIANOCHE

Voy a contaros amigos una historia
que sucedió un domingo de febrero
en medio de una noche oscura y fría
que poco a poco calaba hasta los huesos.

El incidente comienza en el pueblo
cuando después de haber pasado el domingo
al lado de la mujer de tus sueños
regresábamos al “tajo” cuatro amigos.

Íbamos felices y contentos
pues nuestro carro corría muy veloz
“te estás portando como un señor”
le decía Octavio que era el conductor.

Pero de pronto en medio del camino
y tras un extraño ruido en el motor
fue perdiendo fuerza nuestro utilitario
y, sin pensarlo, el frenazo de rigor
pues sin duda alguna había sucedido
algo importante y no tenía solución.

Cuando el coche estuvo ya parado
se abrió el capó para ver lo acaecido
vimos que el radiador se había rajado
y todo el agua habíamos perdido.

Lo que entonces pasó no os lo canto...
perdí el control y también mis compañeros:
recuerdo cuatro lenguas a destajo
despotricando como unos carreteros.

Cuando todo esto fue menguando
y a nuestro temple volvía el color
“no preocuparse, se hará autostop”
afirmó Domingo con determinación.

Pero con las “pintas que nos cantaban”
uno con las barbas y otro de militar
los otros dos hasta el moño manchados de grasa
¡así quién diablos nos iba a parar!
pero allá a las cuatro de la madrugada
un rezagado paró al ver al militar.

Pero cuando vio la “compañía”
con toda prisa se quiso echar atrás
“no le dé miedo, son de fiar”
exclamó Pepucho con gran serenidad.

Con insistencia logró convencerlo
de que nos dejara a los cuatro subir
pues aunque le resultara difícil creerlo
no éramos quinquis o gente de mal vivir.
Y si todo el lío quería saberlo
le prometía que no le iba a mentir.

Todo está visto muy por encima
porque la historia no es fácil de contar
pues estas cosas “pa” verlas ¡hay que vivirlas!
y entonces es cuando se puede opinar
por más que parezca un relato de risa
aquella noche jamás se nos olvidará.

MIDNIGHT INCIDENT

I'm going to tell you, friends, a story
that happened one Sunday in February
in the middle of a dark and cold night
that slowly chilled to the bone.

The incident begins in the village
when, after spending Sunday
with the woman of your dreams,
four friends were returning to work.

We were happy and content
because our car was going very fast
"You're behaving like a gentleman,"
Octavio, the driver, told her.

But suddenly, in the middle of the road
and after a strange noise from the engine
our car began to lose power
and, without thinking, we slammed on the brakes
because without a doubt something important had happened
and there was no solution.

When the car was finally stopped,
we opened the hood to see what had happened
we saw that the radiator had cracked
and we had lost all the water.

I won't tell you what happened then...
I lost control, and so did my companions:
I remember four tongues blaring out loud
ranting like cart drivers.

When all this was fading
and our temper was returning
"Don't worry, he'll hitchhike,"
said Domingo determinedly.

But with the "looks they were giving us,"
one with a beard and the other a soldier
the other two covered in grease up to their necks
who the hell was going to stop us!
But around four in the morning
a straggler stopped when he saw the soldier.

But when he saw the "company,"
he hurriedly wanted to back out
"Don't be afraid, they're trustworthy,"
exclaimed Pepucho with great serenity.

With persistence, he managed to convince him
to let the four of us get on,
because, although it was hard for him to believe,
we weren't quinquis or lowlifes. And if he wanted to know the whole mess,
I promised him I wouldn't lie.
