Line Tjørnhøj Stabat Mater (2009) for soprano & mezzo soli, double bass, electronics & video projection

On 15 August, 2004, Atefah Sahaaleh was hanged in a public square in the Iranian city of Neka. Her death sentence was imposed for “crimes against chastity”. Judge Haji Rezai put himself the noose around her neck she was just 16. Stabat Mater was originally created in 2009. The main idea was to change the famous text, placing it in a contemporary context where children are publicly executed in certain situations around the world. The work can be presented in three forms: í As a staged music-drama í As a concert piece with visuals í As a regular concert work The main aria is Mater. A concert was staged in 2009 with the full musical material. It is however possible to revise the work since it consists of parts that can be moulded, staged, and put together in a montage with other of my main “songs” on the mother theme. I will happily assist in creating an updated version suitable for a specific venue or situtation, as this is the way in which the work can best be realized. A few of the songs have been recorded, a trailer has been made, and there is also a full video of the staged concert version presented in Vejle, 2009. Line Tjørnhøj, 2017 COMMENTS ON THE SCORE: For 2 Solo female voices trained in “extended vocal techniques”: í classical mezzo-Soprano í rhythmic jazz/ethno/experimental Double Bass (player also doubles voice) Visual Art Dancer

VOICE “EXPRESSION” EFFECTS: “Sotto voce”: lowering the voice with a hushed quality. Helpful to let voices blend. “Humming” “Vibrato” “Hammer”: produced by the vocal folds through a serie of glottal onsets (more precise than “voice-puffs” – can be used also for quick ornamentations) “Diaphragmal”: controlled by the diaphragma (normally used) “Larynx”: controlled by moving larynx “Multiphonics”: voice sonorities that feature the perception of two or more simultaneous pitches. “Reinforced harmonics”: gives a perception of more voices. Can be combined with multiphonics: articulated (produced mainly through articulating softly with lips) non-articulated (tongue placed against palate. Creates a more “flute-like” sound) “Fry”: also known as “creaky voice” or “pulse register” – a very dramatic and horror-like sound when “uncontrolled” – can produce very deep subharmonics. “Voice-puffs” : perceived as a rapid, relatively even interruption of the basic sound. VOICE “EXPRESSION” QUALITIES: “Speech”: Modal speech as heard in everyday talking in newscast and radio. Also labeled as chest voice in singing voice. “Falsetto”: Associated with children’s voices when they are singing sweetly, used e.g. in early music. Generally no vibrato. “Sob”: The sobbing cry of an adult, who mourns, including the extreme effort associated with silent, suppressed sobbing. Heard much in jazz and blues and e.g. in operatic pianissimo. “Belting”: Mostly known from ethnic singing, gospel etc, children on playground. “Operatic”: quality heard in opera, oratorio and recital hall.


LIBRETTO I have and possess whatever place to live, whatever form and whatever function I myself choose according to my desires and my judgement. I may choose for myself the limits and bounds of my nature. I am placed at the very very centre of the world so that I may survey everything else in the world. I am a creature neither of heaven nor of earth! Neither mortal nor immortal. I as the free and proud shaper of my own being may fashion myself in the form I may prefer. It is in my power to descend to the beastly form of life. And to me is granted the power to rise into the divine. Text: Line Tjørnhøj freely after Pico della Mirandola (1486) Oration on the dignity of the human being. It is your duty to punish my tormentors not me their victim. I am not old enough to marry. I cannot declare war. Still I am abused, tortured, sentenced to death, executed. Judge: You will hang for your sharp tongue. I myself will put the noose around your neck. This is my personal crusade. To uphold this verdict. Transfix my heart with the wounds. Text: Quotes from the trial - Line Tjørnhøj – from the story about Atefah (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Atefah_Sahaaleh) 1. The child must be given the means requisite for its normal development, both materially and spiritually. 2. The child that is hungry must be fed, the child that is sick must be nursed, the child that is backward must be helped. The delinquent child must be reclaimed, and the orphan and the waif must be sheltered and succored. 3. The child must be the first to receive relief in times of distress. 4. The child must be put in a position to earn a livelihood, and must be protected against every form of exploitation. 5. The child must be brought up in the consciousness that its talents must be devoted to the service of its fellow men. Text: from the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child and Stabat Mater Convention on the Rights of the Child Article 37 States Parties shall ensure that: No child shall be subjected to torture or other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment. Neither capital punishment nor life imprisonment without possibility of release shall be imposed for offences committed by persons below eighteen years of age. I stand for the crane where my children are hanging – weeping – My soul – sighing from grief and sadness – pierced by a sword O – how sad and afflicted – I the blessed mother of children I mourn; I grieve and suffer looking at the torment of my glorious children Who is the person who would not weep seeing me in such agony? Who would not be able to feel compassion on beholding me suffering with my children? For the sins of their people I see my children in torment and subjected to the scourge I see my sweet offspring dying, desolated, while giving up their spirits I – the mother, fountain of love, feel the power of sorrow, grieve with me Grant your heart to burn in love of these children, that you may be pleasing to them I – the mother – grant that the wounds of the hanged children drive deep into your heart That of my wounded children, who so deigned to suffer for you, you may share the pain Weep with me, bemoan the hanged children for as long as you live Stand before the crane with me and gladly share the weeping I the mother is not bitter with you – weep with me Grant to bear the death of these children, the fate of their passion and commemorate their wounds Be wounded with their wounds, inebriated by the crane because of love the children I the mother defend you burning in the flames of hell on the day of judgment When your body dies, I grant that to your soul is given the glory of paradise. Amen Stabat Mater in Line Tjørnhøj’s revised version.

(quasi newsspeaking - can be partly read)

"speech" The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, often referred to as CRC or UNCRC, is an international convention setting out the civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights of children. Nations that ratify this international convention are bound to it by international law.

Media: Voice1

1. The child must be given the means requisite for its normal development, both materially and spiritually. 2. The child that is hungry must be fed, the child that is sick must be nursed, the child that is backward must be helped, the delinquent child must be reclaimed, and the orphan and the waif must be sheltered and succored. 3. The child must be the first to receive relief in times of distress. 4. The child must be put in a position to earn a livelihood, and must be protected against every form of exploitation. 5. The child must be brought up in the consciousness that its talents must be devoted to the service of its fellow men.

"speech"

Media:

¢

Capital punishment, the death penalty or execution, is the killing of a person by judicial process for retribution, general deterrence, and incapacitation. Crimes that can result in a death penalty are known as capital crimes or capital offences. The term capital originates from Latin capitalis, literally "regarding the head" (Latin caput). Hence, a capital crime was originally one punished by the severing of the head.

Voice2

"speech" The Obama administration is reviving efforts to have the United States sign onto

Media: a global children's rights treaty ratified by every U.N. member except the U.S. and Somalia, Db.div

&

But opponents in the U.S. have long argued that it could open the door to outside interference from government and U.N. officials in what they say are parents' rights to raise a child as they see fit. Republicans in Congress also have put forward a measure that has gained limited support but is aimed at blocking such a treaty. In March 2005, the United States Supreme Court ruled that the death penalty for those who had committed their crimes at under 18 years of age was cruel and unusual punishment and hence barred by the Constitution.
