L'Isolement
October 2025 Contest Entry [Put on full volume!]
Another sequence based on a French poem, this time bearing the same name as the piece of literature created by Alphonse de Lamartine.
The poem describes the scenic natural environment that is in front of him and the emotional indifference that he contemplates. He attempts to find reason for this spiritual inertness, and ultimately determines that he is emotionally isolated from the Earth.
For measures 1-25:
[Stanzas 1-3]
Souvent sur la montagne, à l'ombre du vieux chêne,
Au coucher du soleil, tristement je m'assieds;
Je promène au hasard mes regards sur la plaine,
Dont le tableau changeant se déroule à mes pieds.
Ici gronde le fleuve aux vagues écumantes,
Il serpente, et s'enfonce en un lointain obscur;
Là le lac immobile étend ses eaux dormantes
Où l'étoile du soir se lève dans l'azur.
Au sommet de ces monts couronnés de bois sombres,
Le crépuscule encor jette un dernier rayon,
Et le char vaporeux de la reine des ombres
Monte, et blanchit déjà les bords de l'horizon."
For measures 26-34
[Stanza 4]:
"Cependant, s'élançant de la flèche gothique,
Un son religieux se répand dans les airs,
Le voyageur s'arrête, et la cloche rustique
Aux derniers bruits du jour mêle de saints concerts."

Unfortunately because of character limit, I can't paste the rest of the stanzas that correspond to each measure. I can only display which stanzas go to each measure without the text at this point. :(
