Fantasy in three movements for large orchestra

Music by Alexander Zemlinsky
based on a fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen
With texts by Hans Christian Andersen, Oscar Wilde and others

Unhappy love and being an outsider permeate the works of Alexander Zemlinsky. Similar to Oscar Wilde, whose works he set to music several times, Zemlinsky succeeded in transforming his private feelings into art while at the same time capturing the spirit of his epoch. His fantasy »The Mermaid«, based on the fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen and created between 1902 and 1903, is an example of this. In three movements, the composer depicts the fate of the little mermaid, who stands for unfulfilled longing like no other character. On the one hand, Zemlinsky processed his passionate love for Alma Schindler, who played with him for two years before marrying the court opera director Gustav Mahler instead of him. At the same time, with the mermaid, Zemlinsky took up a motif that was central at the turn of the century – Oscar Wilde's »The Fisherman and His Soul« appeared in 1891, and Antonín Dvořák's »Rusalka« premiered in 1901. In his »Seejungfrau«, Zemlinsky summed up the style of his time in tones: Musical Art Nouveau.

Fantasie in drei Sätzen für großes Orchester

Musik von Alexander Zemlinsky
nach einem Märchen von Hans Christian Andersen
Mit Texten von Hans Christian Andersen, Oscar Wilde u. a.

Unglückliche Liebe und Außenseitertum durchziehen die Werke von Alexander Zemlinsky. Ähnlich wie Oscar Wilde, dessen Werke er mehrfach vertonte, gelang es Zemlinsky, seine privaten Empfindungen in Kunst zu verwandeln und zugleich den Geist seiner Epoche einzufangen. Exemplarisch dafür ist seine zwischen 1902 und 1903 entstandene Fantasie »Die Seejungfrau« nach dem Märchen von Hans Christian Andersen. In drei Sätzen gestaltet der Komponist das Schicksal der kleinen Seejungfrau, die wie keine andere Figur für unerfüllte Sehnsucht steht. Einerseits verarbeitete Zemlinsky hier seine leidenschaftliche Liebe zu Alma Schindler, die zwei Jahre lang mit ihm spielte, bevor sie dann statt seiner den Hofoperndirektor Gustav Mahler heiratete. Gleichzeitig griff Zemlinsky mit der Seejungfrau ein um die Jahrhundertwende zentrales Motiv auf – 1891 erschien »Der Fischer und seine Seele« von Oscar Wilde, 1901 wurde Antonín Dvořáks »Rusalka« uraufgeführt. In seiner »Seejungfrau« fasste Zemlinsky den Stil seiner Zeit in Töne: Klingender Jugendstil.
