Question
This composer used two staves for one cello to accompany itself in his third cello suite, which ends with the Russian Kontakion hymn. A namesake 12-tone theme ascends during Act 1 and descends during Act 2 in a chamber opera by this composer in which a boy sings a trancelike aria on the word “Malo.” He’s not Nielsen, but this composer turned his youthful piano pieces into his alliterative Simple Symphony for string orchestra. This composer wrote a Serenade for Tenor, Horn, and Strings for his partner Peter Pears (“peers”), for whom he also wrote the aria “Strange Meeting.” This composer excerpted his pieces “Dawn,” “Sunday Morning,” “Moonlight,” and “Storm” as a set of “sea” interludes from an opera about a disgraced fisherman. For 10 points, name this composer of the War Requiem and Peter Grimes. ■END■
