Ir mayn líder-krants is a new written Yiddish song by Lucette van den Berg on the text of Sarah Reisen. It’s about the cycle of songs you take with you in your life, in the sad, but also in the festive moments. A song of white lilies, sunny summer meadows and autumnal flowers.
"Mayn Layb" (My Body) is about becoming who you are, in balance with yourself and nature.
Accepting age as an enrichment, and finally see the purpose of life.
It is all set in a mystical fairytale style with touches of classical and popmusic.
I have started with the recording of medieval Ladino and Sephardic songs. A mix between classical and world music.
In this composition for 6-part a capella female choir with soloist, I have taken quotes from another traditional Yiddish lullaby, as well as from medieval choral singing, which evolves into a modern choral style as the text becomes more dramatic.
'Toybn shtile' is a song about longing for contact and touch. And about the confrontation with yourself when everything stops.
This EP contains songs that are written based on poems of four different Yiddish female poets from the period 1920-1970.
Every song has a unique character and music style that fits the feeling of the poem. Alan and Lucette show on this EP their broad musical interest. There are refences to Bach, the romantic music of Straus, a Hollywood tango and Klezmer on this EP.
