• Winter Was Hard, Op. 20 (Kronos Quartet, San Francisco Girls Chorus/Elizabeth Appling, Earl L. Miller (reed organ))

About Winter Was Hard, Kronos’ Artistic Director David Harrington says, “When I first heard it in 1983, I couldn’t get it out of my head. That melody and those voices have stayed with me ever since.”

Det fanns inte mycket att ge åt änderna.
Mor vände upp och ner på brödlådan.
Änderna kväkte och föreföll missnöjda.
Vattnet var svart och snart frös det till.

Vintern var hård, vintern var hård.
Också pengarna frös inne på banken.
Lördagskvällen kunde firas
bara varannan lördag.

---

There wasn't much for the ducks.
Mother turned the breadbin upside down.
The ducks quacked and seemed dissatisfied
The water was black and it soon froze.

Winter was hard, winter was hard.
Even money was frozen in the bank.
Saturday evening could only be celebrated
every other Saturday.

Bo Carpelan
