Huijbers, Bernard (1922-2003) (Composer, Person)

Biographical / Historical

In this setting, Huijbers has provided not a single, full-flowing melos but a series of somewhat breathless phrases, liberally sprinkled with breath marks. Paying attention to the phrasing as indicated will make sense of what on the surface may appear to be false accents or rather child-like sentiments.
