Of all his translations from Gaelic and his other poems, it is 'Dark Rosaleen' that has kept the name of James Clarence Mangan (1803-1849) alive. As the music unfolded, I found myself thinking of earlier times, of legends, and of those Dublin boys. The word also suggests the bardic intensity of feeling. The term 'rhapsody' seemed appropriate to the freewheeling structure of my piece. There are relatively few passages that are not derived from the theme but that are, instead, 'new material' that connects one section with another. It is nearly always present in one way or another. Hoiby found that Joyce's folksong-like melody was less well suited to the variation form than to (as he has written) "an extended rhapsodic work which is almost entirely monothematic." He adds: "The Joyce theme appears in many guises. In the course of composing this music between April and July, 2000, Mr. Hoiby re-read Byrne's account of the origin of Joyce's air, which he states he "found rather haunting, as I did the melody itself, playing it over after all those years." He relates that he first thought of the Joyce "air" as the theme for a set of variations for the piano quartet he had been commissioned to compose. Forty years later, coming upon the transcription he had made, Mr. In 1958, Byrne recalled for Lee Hoiby the tune to which Joyce had sung the song, and Hoiby transcribed it. Byren's autobiography relates the story of Joyce's efforts in 1902 to compose music for James Clarence Mangan's beautiful poem "Dark Rosaleen" and Byrne's own improvisation of a piano accompaniment for Joyce's tenor rendition of the song. Hoiby has explained that the air by James Joyce upon which he based his Rhapsody came to him through his acquaintance with John Francis Byrne, James Joyce's friend and schoolmate, who had been the model for the character Cranley in Joyce's novel, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man. 2:12:50 Paranoia Inducta – Whispers and Cogsģ0.Mr. 2:04:10 protoU & Hilyard – Final RefugiumĢ9. 1:52:00 The Caretaker – Hidden Sea Buried DeepĢ8. 1:49:00 Black Box Memories – Interlude – Night LandingĢ4. 1:37:30 Flowers for Bodysnatchers – Hearken Our StormĢ3. 1:24:20 Bohren und der Club of Gore – Maximum BlackĢ0. 1:20:50 Apocryphos, Kammarheit, Atrium Carceri – Avenoirġ8. 1:03:45 David Lynch & Marek Zebrowski – Night (City Back Street)ġ7. 0:56:10 Randal Collier-Ford – Reverence of Wounds (feat. 0:53:15 Aware – So He Got Up and Ate and Drankġ3. 0:45:45 BVdub – Your Painted Armor Aches to Crackġ2. 0:27:45 Tusen År Under Jord – Sorgsendömet Fobos Iġ1. 0:20:45 The Human Voice – Is This a Palace or a Prison?Ġ6. 0:14:50 Beyond Sensory Experience – Time TravelsĠ4.
