Peter Bruun: The Black Waters (Parts)

Description

The initial and prevailing theme is from the song "Det Fagreste Træ" with lyrics by Ursula Andkjær Olsen and music by me. To this song I also owe the title of the piece. The melody in bar 187-217 is quoted from a pearl diver song from Bahrain, recorded by the composer and music ethnologist Poul Rovsing-Olsen. Peter Bruun
