A Fine Frenzy

A Fine Frenzy. Musik die eine ganz selt­sa­me Fas­zi­na­ti­on ausübt.

„The poet’s eye, in a fine frenzy rolling, doth glance from heaven to earth, from earth to heaven“
(Des Dich­ters Aug, in schönem Wahn­sinn rollend, blitzt auf zum Himmel, blitzt zur Erd hinab)

Die Fas­zi­na­ti­on kommt viel­leicht daher, dass die Musik von bei­spiels­wei­se “One Cell in the Sea” ohne großes Bum­Bum­Bum aus­kommt. Zwi­schen der CD Version und einem un­plug­ged Auf­tritt werden die Un­ter­schie­de recht gering sein. Und das ist schön.

Alison Loren Sudol gehört ver­mut­lich nicht zu den be­kann­tes­ten Künst­le­rin­nen in Deutsch­land. Die Musik hat bei mir al­ler­dings einen festen Platz; obwohl ich an­sons­ten sehr viel In­stru­men­tal und recht wenig Vocals höre wenn ich am PC arbeite.

Eine ganz andere Rich­tung sind die Gre­go­ri­an Chants. Das Lied “Be” von Neil Diamond in der “gre­go­ria­ni­schen” In­ter­pre­ta­ti­on gefällt mir mit am besten. Und schein­bar passen die zwei doch sehr un­ter­schied­li­chen Stile — Gre­go­ri­an Chants vs. A Fine Frenzy — nicht wirk­lich zu­sam­men.

Mit der Aus­nah­me, dass beides eben genau dies, Aus­nah­men vom Be­kann­ten, vom All­täg­li­chen, sind.

“Be”

Lost
On a painted sky
Where the clouds are hung
For the poet's eye
You may find him
If you may find him
There
On a distant shore
By the wings of dreams
Through an open door
You may know him
If you may
Be
As a page that aches for a word
Which speaks on a theme that is time­l­ess
And the one God will make for your day
Sing
As a song in search of a voice that is silent
And the Sun God will make for your way
And we dance
To a whi­s­pe­red voice
Over­he­ard by the soul,
Un­der­took by the heart
And you may know it
If you may know it
While the sand would become the stone
Which begat the spark
Turned to living bone
Holy, holy
Sanctus, sanctus
Be
As a page that aches for a word
Which speaks on a theme that is time­l­ess
While the one God will make for your day
Sing
As a song in search of a voice that is silent
And the one God will make for your way

“The Minnow and the Trout”

Help me out said the minnow to the trout
I was lost and found myself swim­ming in your mouth
Help me chief
I've got to plans for you and me
I swear upon this ri­ver­bed
I'll help you feel young again
Not your every day cir­cum­stan­ce
Hum­ming­bird taking coffee with the ants
Please, I know that we're dif­fe­rent
We were one cell in the sea in the be­gin­ning
And what we're made of was all the same once
We're not that dif­fe­rent after all
Help me out said the eagle to the dove
I've fallen from my nest so high above
Help me fly
I am too afraid try
Now saddled with a fear of heights
I'm praying you can set me right
Not your ever­y­day cir­cum­stan­ce
Ele­phant sharing peanuts with the rats
And I said
Please, I know that we're dif­fe­rent
We were one cell in the sea in the be­gin­ning
And what we're made of was all the same once
We're not that dif­fe­rent after all
We are tied in history
Con­nec­ted like a family
Please, I know that we're dif­fe­rent
We were one cell in the sea in the be­gin­ning
And what we're made of was all the same once
All the same
We're not that dif­fe­rent after all
