[fairy-verse]

Fairyverse is a world where I imagine that background music is always playing; ever so softly, that you can hardly hear it. This is because I personally must listen to music whenever I write, and that music needs to be cherry-picked to fit the theme of whatever story/scene/character I’m currently engaged in.

Now, there are a few tracks I will listen to when I write general information regarding Fairyverse (I have a whole playlist but there are a few musical scores I go back to all the time), and I thought I might share them with you all, so that you may hear the general theme/vibe I’m going for.

I think I will also add the tracks I have (sort of) given to some of my characters as their supposed theme songs in Fairyverse. Is it their actual theme? No, but it is the tracks that sort of just clicked in my mind as being “theirs”, so to speak.

Also, not all fairies will be listed here, mostly just because I haven’t found a specific track that clicks with them yet, but I’ll be sure to update this post when that day inevitably comes around.

NIELSEN SYMPHONY NO. 2

NIELSEN SYMPHONY NO. 2

Carl Nielsen saw a picture at a restaurant which comically depicted the four human temperaments. He portrayed what he saw in his Second Symphony – a piece of music loaded with humour, drama and Danish geniality. https://www.konserthuset.se/en/play/nielsen-symphony-no-2/?utm_medium=display&utm_source=bachtrack.com&utm_campaign=listinglink - Carl Nielsen Symphony No. 2 ”The four temperaments” - Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra - Sakari Oramo conductor - Filmed in September 2013. With Nielsen, humour is an almost constant presence. The focus is on a sort of wittiness, as well as occasional elements of musical sarcasm. This is particularly applicable to the Second Symphony. It was composed after a visit to a village restaurant where Nielsen saw a picture on the wall which rather brutishly portrayed the four human temperaments: choleric, phlegmatic, melancholic and sanguine. All with a heavy dose of Danish geniality. He was inspired to portray each temperament in its own movement in a symphony. 

At a concert in 1931 with the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra, Nielsen described the picture in a comment: “The choleric individual sat on a horse, a long sword in his hand, with which he gesticulated wildly through the empty air, his eyes bursting out of his head, his hair flapping madly around his face, which was contorted with rage and diabolic hatred to the point that I could not help but burst into laughter. The other three pictures were in the same style, and my friends and I were heartily entertained by the naiveté of the pictures, their overblown expressions and comical seriousness.”  Read the full article

John Wilson is highly sought after on a global scale. He frequently performs in the UK with most orchestras, including the City of Birmingham Symphony, BBC Scottish Symphony, London Symphony, and London Philharmonic orchestras, both during their normal seasons and at festivals like Aldeburgh, Glyndebourne, and the BBC Proms. He frequently performed with the John Wilson Orchestra for many years, both domestically and internationally. Wilson has conducted many of the best orchestras in Europe, including the Royal Concertgebouw, Budapest Festival, Swedish Radio Symphony, Oslo Philharmonic, Bavarian Radio Symphony, Royal Stockholm Philharmonic, and DSO Berlin, as well as the Sydney Symphony Orchestra. Wilson has also conducted orchestras outside of Europe, including the Sydney Symphony Orchestra. John Wilson Wilson conducted Puccini's Madama Butterfly at the Glyndebourne Festival Opera during their autumn tour in 2016. Since then, he has conducted Gershwin's Porgy and Bess at the English National Opera and Massenet's Cendrillon at the Glyndebourne Summer Festival. Wilson and the John Wilson Orchestra performed extensively around the UK and overseas for many years. He restarted the Sinfonia of London in 2018. The Guardian praised their eagerly awaited BBC Proms debut in 2021 as "really remarkable," and they are now in high demand around the UK; this season, they will return to the BBC Proms, Birmingham Symphony Hall, and London's Barbican Center, among other locations. Wilson has a sizable and diverse discography, and his recordings with the Sinfonia of London have won numerous accolades and exceptional praise. For example, the recordings of the Korngold Symphony in F sharp (2020), Respighi Roman Trilogy (2021), and Dutilleux Le Loup (2022) have each won the BBC Music Magazine Award in the orchestral category for three consecutive years. The Times named the Respighi recording one of the three "really remarkable versions of this trilogy" of all time, together with those by Toscanini (1949) and Muti. The Observer called the Respighi album "Massive, bold and vividly played." Wilson, a Gateshead native, studied composing and conducting at the Royal College of Music, where he was elevated to Fellow status in 2011. John Wilson received the prestigious ISM Distinguished Musician Award in March 2019 for his contributions to music, and the Royal Academy of Music appointed him to the position of Henry Wood Chair of Conducting in 2021. British orchestral conductor John Wilson founded the John Wilson Orchestra in 1994. It is a jazz large band that plays with a symphony orchestra. It performs Rodgers and Hammerstein compositions as well as MGM musicals' original arrangements. Since 2009, the orchestra has participated in The Proms summer event each year. The John Wilson Orchestra has received praise for demonstrating how film musicals can also feature "genuine period performance”. Prior to the 2010 Proms season, John Wilson spoke with Rebecca Franks for the BBC Music Magazine and described how the orchestra's particular composition represents this goal: The orchestra has a solid 15 years together, and its personnel is exceptionally specialized. It is based on the traditional American contract movie orchestras. And that essentially consists of a rhythm section, four trumpets, four trombones, five double-saxes, and a rhythm section, all of whom are highly specialised in this manner, together with a brass, rhythm, and saxophone section from a dance band. A woodwind and French horn section are added on top of that. But I believe that finding the appropriate string players is crucial. A very high octane, high gloss, soloist type of musician is required. Not down, but up, is the string sound mixed. You perform at your peak. It takes a lot of practise to get the in-your-face, costly kind of string sound. The best players are required, but our nation is blessed with excellent orchestral musicians. Wilson is most

known for his Proms performances with a Hollywood theme, which have been a mainstay of the event for well over a decade. So it surprised some when, in February, he stepped in at the last minute to conduct the London Symphony Orchestra's world premieres of Rachmaninov's Second Symphony and a trumpet concerto by Mark-Anthony Turnage. Wilson clearly possesses more than just a deep understanding of the Great American Songbook. In 2002, Wilson began performing with the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, primarily specialising in light music. "I've always done it and I've never apologised for it, but over the years they've slowly given me more freedom, and I've worked with them on everything from Eric Coates to Dutilleux. I appreciate that they didn't categorise me. At the Proms, he will lead the orchestra in conducting Vaughan Williams and Holst's Planets, another piece from the traditional repertoire that he promises to give new life to. I always perform The Planets in a unique way as a party piece. A performance is never more than a momentary reflection of your attitude toward a work on any given day. He credits his unusual upbringing—a working-class boy from Gateshead who fell in love with music (and Hollywood musicals in particular), taught himself to play the piano with the assistance of a musical mother, completed an A-level in music at Newcastle College, and created his first orchestra at the age of 16—for the diversity of his repertoire. Wilson continued on and joined the Royal College of Music as a "reluctant and not very good percussion player," but later switched to composition and conducting. I had a few professors who made sure I had the time and support to succeed. As a result, I went from being on the verge of being expelled at the end of my first year to winning the Tagore Gold Medal, the college's top honour for students. Just being left to do what I want. In 1994, while he was only 22 years old, he founded his own orchestra under that name. He claims, "It just happened by accident." "When I was still a student, I was playing the piano at the Grosvenor House hotel. I had tea in the afternoon with a violinist and attended jazz trio concerts in the evening. So I ended up with two groups of friends—classical musicians from the Royal College of Music and jazz musicians from the Guildhall and the Academy—and it was the marriage of those two sets of passions that inspired us to play this symphonic music with a jazz influence. We started getting offers for gigs and residencies as it transitioned from being something we did purely for fun.
