Arnold <strong>Rosner</strong><br />

<strong>Danses</strong> <strong>à</strong> <strong>la</strong> <strong>mode</strong><br />

for violoncello<br />

<strong>op</strong>. <strong>101</strong> (1994)


Arnold <strong>Rosner</strong><br />

<strong>Danses</strong> <strong>à</strong> <strong>la</strong> <strong>mode</strong><br />

1. À <strong>la</strong> Greque 4<br />

2. Raga 6<br />

3. Sarabande 10<br />

4. Musique du Nord 12<br />

During his years on the faculty of Kingsborough Community College, <strong>Rosner</strong><br />

began to teach various courses in ethnomusicology, which provided an impetus<br />

for him to investigate the music of many countries and cultures. These explorations<br />

bore fruit in a number of his own compositions, including <strong>Danses</strong> <strong>à</strong> <strong>la</strong><br />

<strong>mode</strong>. In addition to the obvious musical reference (modal music, important in<br />

both the ethnic music of many cultures and <strong>Rosner</strong>’s own <strong>la</strong>nguage), the title is<br />

also a bit tongue-in-cheek, given <strong>Rosner</strong>’s lifelong interest in all matters culinary.<br />

The first movement À <strong>la</strong> Greque is in a fast 7/8 meter, with inflections characteristic<br />

of Greek folk music. Even before his teaching days, <strong>Rosner</strong> was interested<br />

in Indian music, and its influence appeared in a few of his compositions, including<br />

the second movement of this suite, as well as the concert band work RAGA!,<br />

a much more extended exploration of the raga concept. The third movement,<br />

Sarabande, pays homage to the baroque dance form. Musique du Nord evokes<br />

Scandinavian dance music.<br />
