Michael Tippett A child of our time
Album
In 1938 vermoorde een 17-jarige joodse vluchteling een Duitse diplomaat in Parijs. Het incident vormde aanleiding voor de beruchte 'Kristallnacht'. De componist Michael Tippett herdacht deze gebeurtenissen in zijn oratorium A Child of our Time. Aanvankelijk had hij niemand minder dan T.S. Eliot om een libretto verzocht. Zijn bijdrage zou echter zo uitgesproken poëtisch uitvallen, dat deze de componist adviseerde om zelf een meer praktisch libretto te schrijven. Tippett volgde in zijn oratorium de driedelige structuur van Handels Messiah (waarvan het eerste deel de verwachting, het tweede deel het lijden en het derde deel de wederkomst van Christus betreft). Naast Handel lijkt ook Bach een inspiratiebron te zijn geweest: de door Tippett ingelaste negro spirituals hebben dezelfde functie als de koralen in Bachs passies. Een belangrijke inspiratiebron was verder het gedachtegoed van de Zwitserse psychiater Jung. Een belangrijk onderdeel van diens psychoanalyse is de integratie van de 'schaduw'. Het gaat hier, eenvoudig gezegd, om het psychische mechanisme waardoor men 'dat mens van hiernaast' of 'die zakkenvullers in Den Haag' de fouten en stommiteiten aanrekent die men van zichzelf niet wil kennen. Meer volwassen is een hoopvolle passage in het derde deel: 'I would know my shadows and my light, so shall I at last be whole'. (HJ)
