English-German-French-Dutch.

El Matador is composed in the style of a Spanish paso doble. In this dance, the man plays the role of a matador, and the woman is, literally, a red rag to a bull! This work is written for a four-part variable instrumentation. The crucial aspect for the performance is that the parts are equally shared among the available instruments. In the percussion part, the castanets (wood block ad lib.) play an important role.

El Matador is geschreven in de stijl van een Spaanse paso doble. In deze dans speelt de man de rol van de matador (stierenvechter), en is de dame als het ware de rode lap die de stier opjaagt. Het werk is ge nstrumenteerd voor vierstemmig variabele bezetting. Voor de uitvoering is het belangrijk dat de stemmen gelijkmatig verdeeld worden over de beschikbare instrumenten. In het slagwerk is een belangrijke rol weggelegd voor de castagnetten (wood block ad lib.).

El Matador wurde im Stil eines spanischen Paso doble komponiert. In diesem Tanz spielt der Mann die Rolle eines Matadors (Stierkämpfer) und die Dame ist sozusagen das rote Tuch, das den Stier aufscheucht. Das Werk ist für eine vierstimmig variable Besetzung instrumentiert. Für die Aufführung gilt es, die Stimmen gleichmäßig über die zur Verfügung stehenden Instrumente zu verteilen. Bei den Schlaginstrumenten spielen die Kastagnetten (Holzblock ad lib.) eine wichtige Rolle.

El Matador contient les éléments rythmiques et mélodiques caractéristiques du paso doble. Pour adopter le style typiquement espagnol de cette danse, l’homme joue le rôle du matador, alors que la femme incarne celui de la muleta, ce morceau de tissu rouge que l’on agite devant le taureau. Écrit pour ensemble vent, cet ouvrage propose une instrumentation variable quatre voix, lesquelles se partagent avec équité l’ensemble des lignes mélodiques. Dans la partie de percussion, les castagnettes (wood-block ad lib.) jouent un rôle prépondérant.
