Lyrics

Lyrics of 'Walking in the Air' by Howard Blake

We're walking in the air,
We're floating in the moonlit sky,
The people far below are sleeping as we fly.

I'm holding very tight,
I'm riding in the midnight blue,
I'm finding I can fly so high above with you.

On across the world
The villages go by like dreams,
The rivers and the hills,
The forests and the streams.

Children gaze open mouthed,
Taken by surprise,
Nobody down below believes their eyes.

We're surfing in the air,
We're swimming in the frozen sky,
We're drifting over icy
Mountains floating by.

Suddenly swooping low on an ocean deep,
Rousing up a mighty monster from his sleep,

We're walking in the air,
We're floating in the midnight sky
And everyone who sees us greets us as we fly

The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra will be conducted by the composer. Box office 020 7730 4500 www.cadoganhall.com   THE SNOWMAN (Concert version for solo treble, narrator and orchestra, opus 323, 1983) Music, lyrics and narration by Howard Blake based on the book by Raymond Briggs. Narrator Bernard Cribbins Solo treble Robert William Blake. Composer’s note: The theme of ‘Walking in the air’ entered my mind as long ago as 1970 whilst walking on a Cornish beach.  I thought it might be the opening of a symphony but abandoned it. Eleven years later I happened to walk into a film production company and see a nine-minute  pencil sketch based on Raymond Briggs’  picture-book ‘The Snowman’. I felt instantly that this was where the theme belonged and said: ‘I would love to set this whole story to music. It wouldn’t need any words and I have a song that would work with it like a dream.’ Jeremy Isaacs agreed and the 26-minute animated film was made by Channel 4. While it was being drawn I worked on the lyrics and orchestration, conducting the complete orchestral score in July 1982 with The Sinfonia of London and the superb treble voice of Peter Auty, a treble in  St. Paul’s Cathedral Choir. The film was first shown at Christmas 1982, was nominated for an Oscar and won many prizes. The  CBS Masterworks album was released the following year and its first concert performance took place at The Barbican that  December, since when concert performances of it have sprung up all over the world. In 1985 Aled Jones’s single of it went to number 3 in the hit parade and since 1997 a two-act ballet (The Snowman Stage Show) has run every year at Sadler’s Wells’ Peacock Theatre, becoming the longest-running Christmas show in London. My  son Robert William presently sings in the famous  Stockholm Boys Choir and joins us  for this evening’s performance. CONCERTO FOR PIANO AND ORCHESTRA (opus 412, 1991) Concert work in three movements: 1. Tranquillo-Allegro 2. Andante Espressivo 3. Vivace Soloist: William Chen The piano concerto was originally commissioned by The Philharmonia to celebrate the 30th birthday of their patron Diana, then HRH, The Princess of Wales. The soloist in the premiere was the composer in a gala concert at the Royal Festival Hall in 1991. But the soloist on this  occasion will be William Chen, now piano professor at Shanghai Conservatoire. He studied in the Sydney Conservatorium and The Royal Academy in London, meeting Howard Blake in 2002 at a performance of ‘Lifecycle’, his 24 pieces for solo piano. He asked if he could study the pieces with the composer and in 1993 made a marvellous recording of  them for ABC Classics. Composer’s note: Just before Christmas 1989 The Philharmonia  asked if I would compose a Piano Concerto for Princess Diana's 30th Birthday. I started looking at scores of the innumerable piano concertos by great composers, and wondered if I dare write one at all. On  St. Valentine's Day 1990 my publisher and his wife came over to  dinner at my studio and asked what I intended to write. I said: ‘I  would like the concerto to be a portrait of Diana. The opening motif should contain the possibilities of a complete picture within it. It should be a very simple motif that is innocent and gay and full of life and compassion and joy all at once. I went over to the piano and played a simple 4-note motif that came from nowhere at all.  I knew immediately that it would be the basis of the work but I wasn’t at all sure how. Weeks later I heard in my head what sounded like an impossibly-high counter melody on strings and the symphonic working-out  of these two strands were to  provide the raw material for the first movement. After playing the concerto at the RFH I was invited to meet the Princess in the Royal Box. She was well-informed on music and the piano in particular since her grandmother Ruth Lady Fermoy had been a concert pianist. I presented Diana with a specially-bound copy of the score and  later received a letter: ‘…to receive such a beautiful concerto as a birthday present is a very special honour and I deeply appreciate it..’   THE PASSION OF MARY (opus 577, 2006) A Dramatic Oratorio (first London performance) Soprano: Patricia Rozario  Tenor: Martyn Hill  Bass: Lars Arvidson Treble: Robert William Blake  Chamber choir: London Voices, (director Terry Edwards) Composer’s note: In 1998 I attended a splendid performance of my dramatic oratorio ‘Benedictus’ for solo tenor solo viola, choir and orchestra given in Sherborne Abbey by the Summer Music Society of Dorset.. The Lady Digby as director of the festival asked if I would consider writing a new work on a similar scale - a ‘companion-piece’ - but with the principal protagonist a soprano rather than a tenor. Through discussion an idea began to emerge of a view of the life of Jesus as seen through the eyes of Mary the Mother. It was pointed out to me that the time-honoured ‘Stabat Mater’ poem expresses Mary’s grief at the foot of the cross, but I started to consider broadening the concept to encompass far more than that in a series of linked ‘scenes from the life’ as related in scripture. Unfortunately at this point in my life I was forced to postpone the creation of  such a work indefinitely due to unprovoked and vicious  litigation pursued against me by a music publisher. Greatly to their credit, The Summer Music Society of Dorset nevertheless went boldly ahead and commissioned the work, helped by South-West Arts and the generous assistance of members of the society. The work was not completed for 4 years and first performed in Sherborne Abbey in 2002 to coincide with the 40th anniversary of the festival. Patricia Rozario sang the soprano solo part of Mary, which had been specially written for her, whilst the other roles were spoken. The Choir of Winchester Cathedral and The Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra were conducted by David Hill and the work received a wonderful standing ovation. However, having now heard the work I started to feel that it would be further improved if some of the other roles could be sung. David Hill suggested the work might also be effectively extended by adding a final chorus based on the ‘Salve Regina’. In 2006 after various false starts I completed a substantially- rewritten and and completely-sung  version, re-naming it ‘The Passion of Mary’. The first performance of this was given in St.Gorans Church in Stockholm in October 2007 and the concert on October 28th at the Cadogan Hall will celebrate the first London performance.

THE SNOWMAN

HOWARD BLAKE

Rating:

Original Review: An undisputed animated classic, The Snowman is a magical adaptation of Raymond Briggs' well-loved storybook, telling the tale of a young boy who builds a snowman one Christmas Eve, which comes to life that night and takes the boy on an unforgettable trip to the North Pole to meet Santa Claus. It's a simple story of childhood wish fulfilment, told with loving attention to detail and superbly stylised renderings, and since its initial release in 1982, the film has gone on to be heralded as one of the best animated short films ever made. Every year over the Christmas period, in the UK at least, the TV station Channel 4 screens the film, allowing families both young and old to enjoy this wonderful piece of seasonal tradition time and again.

As the story of The Snowman unfolds completely without dialogue, Howard Blake's masterful score takes on increased significance. In recent years, Blake has virtually disappeared from the film scoring scene, despite a healthy career during the 1960s and 70s when he wrote excellent music for films such as The Duellists and Riddle of the Sands, and had his scheduled slot to score the film Alien taken by some bloke called Jerry Goldsmith... But if Blake never writes another note of film music in his life, his reputation in the genre's history will undoubtedly be secured by his contribution to this film, especially the legendary song "Walking In The Air".

Written to accompany the scene in which the Snowman and the boy take flight and make their epic journey northwards to see Father Christmas, Blake employed the talents of St. Paul's Cathedral choirboy Peter Auty to lend voice to his exquisite melody and his poetic words. With opening chords that allude to John Williams E.T., a spine-tingling chorus and an instrumental bridge to die for, "Walking In The Air" went on to attain world-wide fame when it was subsequently released as a single by the famous boy soprano Aled Jones in 1985. The remainder of Blake's score is presented in two suites, running at 15 and 6 minutes respectively, either side of the song.

Although necessarily a touch cartoonish in nature, Blake convincingly and cleverly manages to convey the good humour and emotion and magic in the story with a series of wonderful interconnected cues, all of which are performed with life and spirit by the Sinfonia of London. Among the highlights include the mock Caribbean-rhythms for when the Snowman is "sunbathing" in front of the fridge, the lovely music-box theme for the Snowman's dance around the boy's bedroom, the wonderful woodwind and xylophone scherzo for the pair's chaotic motorbike ride round the garden, the magnificently vibrant source music for the Dance of the Snowmen, and the bittersweet rendition of the Walking In The Air theme as the pair reluctantly fly home.

Columbia's album, which is apparently extremely difficult to find outside the British Isles, is one of the most intelligently structured I have ever encountered. As the entire score only runs for just under 26 minutes, the music is presented twice - firstly with narration by character actor Bernard Cribbins reading extracts from the book, and secondly as an unbroken suite of narration-free music. Whoever took the decision to release the CD in this format should be unreservedly congratulated for their vision: not only does the two-half technique mean that you get a 50-minute CD, but you also get a choice of how to experience it. For those unfamiliar with the film, Cribbins' voice provides a welcome connection between the music and the on-screen action, while for those who wish to experience Blake's delicate touch and detailed orchestrations can simply skip forward to track 4 and indulge themselves.

Many people the world over have taken the film of The Snowman to their hearts, and a similar number have embraced Blake's score with equal enthusiasm. Even disregarding the near-legendary song, Howard Blake's lively music for this animated masterpiece will surely stand the test of time and go on to be part of Britain's Christmas traditions for many years to come. Though Blake has written classical pieces, other film scores, music for a number of theatre productions, and even a second Briggs animation (The Bear), the majority of people still consider this composition to be the seminal work of his career.
