Chopin kusc feb 28 cozy polonaise
heavy and ice-cold drops of water fell at regular intervals upon his breast, and when I drew his attention to those drops of water which were actually falling at regular intervals upon the roof, he denied having heard them. He was even vexed at what I translated by imitative harmony…. His genius was full of mysterious harmonies of nature, translated by sublime equivalents into his musical thought, and not by a servile repetition of external sounds.http://thesmartset.com/article/article02151101.aspx

I was fascinated that the Faeroe Island Dance in this late band version of 1954 has a pivoting ostinato for horns that echoes the opening of Vaughan Williams’s Fifth Symphony, before launching into the dance proper with echoes of The Rite of Spring. The merry King is hardly merry at all, with a ruminative part for piano, a setting of a folk-song which Grainger collected in 1905 in the then evidently rural setting of Wimbledon!
