Two in love
Jun 12th, 2009 by oldfogey
This is a delightful short piece by the Czech composer Vitezslav Novak. It is from his Slovak Suite, the third movement. You can almost see them, the two lovers, in the sweet, languorous theme of the opening section, mooning over each other, all long looks, deep sighs and dreamy smiles. The middle section is livelier, catching them at play, flirting and teasing. Then back to the mooning and sighs.
All is innocence and delight, captured as if at the very last moment, before passion, and sex, break the spell forever.
Here it is played by the Prague Chamber Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Jiri Belohlavek.
