Michael Edward Edgerton "Sirene Segmenti" Three Excerpts

Inferno (2002/2005) for amplified soprano, flute and trumpet, 12’
(this performance Gaudeamus Music Week '05) 
Jannie Pranger, sop.
Rik Andriessen, fl.
Willem van der Vliet, tr.

The connection in this piece rests in its treatment of the text (two lines of Dante’s Divine Comedy). Not only until the end is it regarded as simple, direct communication. For this reason it is always spoken in the language of the given country.

O cieca cupidigia, o ira folle, Che sì ci sproni nella vita corta, E nell’eterna poi sì mal c’immolle!
Perchè mi schiante? Perchè mi scerpi? Non hai tu spirto di pietate alcuno? Uomini fummo; ed or sem fatti sterpi.
O blind greed and insensate anger, Which incites us so in this brief life, and then Cruelly plunges us in the eternal!
Why do you break me? Why do you tear me? Have you no feeling of compassion at all? Once we were men, and now we are stumps of trees.

Inferno (2005), for soprano, flute, and trumpet

Performed by Conference Ensemble: Barry Crawford (flute/piccolo), Benjamin Finland (bass clarinet), Adda Kridler (violin), Chris Gross (cello), Steve Beck (piano), Matthew Gold & Alex Lipowski (percussion), and James Baker (conductor).
