Re: Hindemith Sonata

[antoine-malette-chenier]

Would any body have transcribed the poem to English (or French) and tried to place it note to note in the last movement? That’s what was suggested in the American Harp Journal”s article. I am doing just that right now and I can’t seem to make the text fit perfectly to the melody. It would work only if I added slurs, but then it would certainly modify the inflexions and articulations of the melody. What do you think of all this?
