Video Description:
Music by William Walton (1902 - 1983) from the Façade Settings.Text by Edith Sitwell (1887-1964)
Aperformance of Mila Vilotijevic, accompained at piano by James Vaughan.
"Through the gilded trellises"
Of the heat, Dolores,
Inez, Manuccia,
Isabel, Lucia,
Mock Time that flies.
"Lovely bird, will you stay and sing,
Flirting your sheenèd wing, —
Peck with your beak, and cling
To our balconies?"
They flirt their fans, flaunting —
"O silence, enchanting
As music!" then slanting
Their eyes,
Like gilded or emerald grapes,
They take mantillas, capes,
Hiding their simian shapes.
Sighs
Each lady, "Our spadille
Is done."..."Dance the quadrille
From Hell's towers to Seville;
Surprise
Their siesta," Dolores
Said. Through gilded trellises
Of the heat, spangles
Pelt down through the tangles
Of bell-flowers; each dangles
Her castanets, shutters
Fall while the heat mutters,
With sounds like a mandoline
Or tinkled tambourine. ...
Ladies, Time dies!'
