Notes sur cette pièce

Eye o da hurricane for string quartet (2017)– Angela Elizabeth Slater Eye o da
hurricane was written for a colloborative workshop with writers and the Gildas
quartet at the St Magnus composition course (2017). The piece takes inspiration
and imagery from Christian Tait’s poem ‘Fae da Journal o a Crofter’s Wife’. The
piece particularly draws on imagery from certain lines within the poem
including:

Sae here I am ida eye o da hurricane

while a aathing crashes an roars an birls

aboot me. Destructive an oot o control.

…

ta read atween da lines, or hoo

my hert vibrates laek fiddle-strings

in tune wi der black despair

…

sood cry my name A’ll hear him

sammas he wis in da nixt room

…

But ivvery mennit o ivvery day

I bargain wi da Mellishon, offerin him

my sowl if he’ll bring dem safely hame

…

Dis is what its laek, aa bi me lane

trapped ida eye o da hurricane
