This six-minute madrigal setting was commissioned by the renowned Hanover Girls' Choir and composed on the basis of one of Rainer Maria Rilke's profound poems. It begins as a thanksgiving prayer: for the summer, for the autumn fruits. But the first winds bring along the fear of the cold and loneliness of winter: 'Whoever is alone now will remain so for a long time, will stay up, read, write long letters'. Peter Eötvös lets the poem unfold twice, each time in a different way, thus intensifying the reflection. The tonality is treated freely, and the choral setting extends the underlying five-part texture, in which the choir's soloists create striking echoes, up to eight-part passages.
Ce madrigal de six minutes sur l'un des poèmes les plus profonds de Rainer Maria Rilke commence comme une action de grâce : pour l'été, pour les fruits de l'automne. Mais déjà les premiers vents apportent la crainte du froid et de la solitude de l'hiver. Eötvös fait interpréter le poème deux fois de manière différente, intensifiant ainsi sa réflexion.
