Work & Edition Details
The concert suite presented here is formed of sections from the melodrama 'The Stamp King', premiered at the Wigmore Hall in London in December 2010 with pianist Bengt Forsberg and Cellist Mats Lidström, narrated by Sir Terry Waite. My story about the Stamp King adventures first appeared in book form, beautifully illustra-ted by my best friend Lasse Paulsson, a professional clarinetist and, I hasten to add, an artist in every sense. The drawings which adorn the pages of this volume are taken from that book. The suite does not follow the story line. Instead, the position of the movements is based on musical content. Each movement is introduced with a few lines from the story for the purpose of helping the musicians set the mood. Those few lines are not meant to be read to the audience. No weight needs to be given to the story. I have not extracted the music to create a mini melodrama.
