Paul Robeson Told Me. String Quartet and Pre-recorded Sound. Composed by Michael Daugherty. 1954-. For String Quartet, Pre-recorded Sound. Boosey & Hawkes Chamber Music. Softcover with CD. 82 pages. Boosey & Hawkes #M051105922. Published by Boosey & Hawkes. HL.48022578. ISBN 1476816484. 9x12 inches. Paul Robeson Told Me. 1994. was commissioned for the Smith Quartet by the Bath International Music Festival. This work is part of a trilogy composed I wrote for string quartet and pre-recorded sound, including Sing Sing. J. Edgar Hoover. 1992. and Elvis Everywhere. 1993. Paul Robeson. 1898-1976. was a world-renowned singer and actor who used his fame to advocate for racial equality around the world. Coming to prominence during the Harlem Renaissance, Robeson was widely admired for his acting on stage as Shakespeare's Othello, and in Hollywood films such as “The Emperor Jones” and “Showboat. ” After the Second World War, Robeson became an international political activist and outspoken critic of racism who used his celebrity to champion the rights of workers and oppressed minorities. Because of these activities and his views on socialism, J. Edgar Hoover and the FBI kept him under close surveillance. The energy of Robeson's voice soulfully singing and passionately speaking for civil rights inspired me to compose this work for sstring quartet and pre-recorded sound. The work is nine minutes in duration and divided into two movements, performed without pause. In the first movement, I reconfigure excerpts from a rare, historic sound recording that I discovered in the Library of Congress. We hear Robeson singing “The People's Battle Song” in Russian, with an orchestra, during a concert tour of the Soviet Union in 1949. The string quartet augments the cadences of Robeson's powerful voice, and weaves through the orchestral accompaniment with original musical material that I have composed. The second movement features the string quartet alone. I further elaborate the thematic musical material introduced in the first movement, through vibrant syncopations, complex polyrhythms, and fearless fiddling. – Michael Daugherty.

Aquest treball forma part d'una trilogia vaig compondre jo vaig escriure per a quartet de corda i pregravats de so, incloent Sing Sing. J. Edgar Hoover. 1992. i Elvis tot arreu. 1993. Paul Robeson. 1898-1976. va ser un cantant de fama mundial i actor que va utilitzar la seva fama per promoure la igualtat racial a tot el món. Venint a la fama durant el Renaixement d'Harlem, Robeson va ser àmpliament admirat per la seva actuació a l'escenari com Otelo de Shakespeare, i en pel·lícules de Hollywood com "L'Emperador Jones" i "Showboat. "Després de la Segona Guerra Mundial, Robeson es va convertir en un activista polític internacional i obert crític del racisme que va utilitzar la seva fama per defensar els drets dels treballadors i les minories oprimides. A causa d'aquestes activitats i els seus punts de vista sobre el socialisme, J. Edgar Hoover i el FBI el va mantenir sota estreta vigilància. L'energia de la veu de Robeson cantar amb sentiment i passió que parla dels drets civils em va inspirar per compondre aquesta obra per a quartet sString i so pregravat. El treball és de nou minuts de durada i dividit en dos moviments, realitzat sense pausa. En el primer moviment, torno a configurar extractes d'una rara gravació, so històric que vaig descobrir a la Biblioteca del Congrés. Sentim Robeson cantar "Popular Batalla Cançó" en rus, amb una orquestra, durant una gira de concerts per la Unió Soviètica en 1949. El quartet de cordes augmenta les cadències de la poderosa veu de Robeson, i teixeix a través de l'acompanyament d'orquestra amb material musical original que he compost. El segon moviment compta amb el quartet de cordes soles. Elaboro encara més el material musical temàtica introduïda en el primer moviment, a través de síncopes vibrants, polirítmia complexos i sense por de tocar el violí. - Michael Daugherty.
