The three symphonic sketches La Mer are, after Prelude a Lapresmidi dun faune, no doubt Debussys most frequently performed orchestral work. This success derives in part from its formal resemblance to a symphony, which had already been noted by the composers contemporaries, and in part from its sound, which was associated from the very start with the shimmer and iridescence of Impressionism.Peter Jost takes all major sources into consideration. Ultimately, the musical text of his Urtext edition is based on a copy of the second edition of the score, published in 1909, in which the composer incorporated his experiences as auditor and conductor into a last authorized version. After the cool reception given La Mer at its world premiere, Debussy revised the work and conducted the extraordinarily successful performances of it in early 1908 in Paris,London and Rome.

This moving symphonic poem is about the French region of Lorraine. Since the time of the Roman Empire, Lorraine has been ruled by either Germany or France with wars redrawing national boundaries many times over the years. While its history has been bloody, folk music from the region breaks up the tension in the piece and offers many uplifting moments. An optimistic conclusion features a mixture of music from the three countries Lorraine sits between: Luxembourg, Germany and France.Dit ontroerende symfonische gedicht gaat over Lotharingen, een gebied aan de oostkant van Frankrijk. De muzikale verklanking begint in de tijd van het Heilige Roomse Rijk. Een tijd waarin het land wordt geteisterd door vele oorlogen.Een tijd ook waarin het land nu eens bij Duitsland, dan weer bij Frankrijk hoort. Vrolijke elementen zijn er echter ook: volksmuziek uit Lotharingen en ook een verzoenend slot dat met toespelingen op het volkslied het drielandenpuntvan Frankrijk, Duitsland en Luxemburg belicht.Dieses bewegende symphonische Gedicht handelt von der Region Lothringen in Frankreich. Beginnend mit der Zeit des heiligen Römischen Reiches, über diverse Kriege, die im Land wüteten und Wechsel zwischen deutscher und französischer Staatszugehörigkeit wird die Geschichte musikalisch nacherzählt. Für fröhliche Elemente sorgen Anklänge der lothringischen Volksmusik und der versöhnliche Schluss, der mittels Anspielungen auf die Nationalhymne auf das Dreiländereck“ Frankreich, Deutschland und Luxemburg anspielt.Ce fascinant poème symphonique retrace l’histoire de la Lorraine telle qu’elle a été perçue par les habitants de Yutz (France). L’introduction illustre la période où la Lorraine faisait partie du Saint-Empire romain germanique. Puis se profile un rythme de marche faisant référence aux nombreuses guerres qui frappèrent la région. Une atmosphère plus chaleureuse se dessine, symbolisant l’unité des Lorrains, chamarrée des joyeuses esquisses de musiques traditionnelles qui parcourent les rues de Yutz. La création mondiale de l’oeuvre fut donnée en juin 2010, Yutz, sous la direction du compositeur Jacob de Haan.La Lorena è l’unica regione francese che condivide i confini con altre tre nazioni: Belgio, Lussemburgo e Germania. Questo brano sottolinea il carattere cosmopolita della regione che nel corso della guerra franco-prussiana costrinse i francesi a cederla al neo-nato impero tedesco, ma che fu restituita alla Francia dopo la prima guerra mondiale a seguito del trattato di Versailles. Il brano propone un tema basato sulla melodia dell’inno nazionale tedesco come anche, con un ritmo rapido, sule note della Marsigliese. Segue un motivo fondato sulle prime note dell’inno nazionale lussemburghese.
