The inspiration for 'Jean who weeps' and 'Jean who laughs' appears to come from the same source as his later 'Esquisse op.63 no.39 Héraclite et Démocrite', the weeping and laughing philosophers, namely Voltaire’s poem 'Jean who weeps' and 'who laughs'. This unity of opposites reflects the familiar faces representing the Greek muses of tragedy and comedy, Melpomene and Thalia staring down from many a theatre arch. Musically Jean’s moods are represented by two fugues, the first solemn and highly chromatic while the second will sound familiar – perhaps Jean is amused that listeners are wondering why Mozart’s oh-so-bubbly 'Fin ch’han dal vino' is being played so sedately? One only has to hear the intricate counterpoint, notice the superhuman stretches, double trills and such to realise that, yes maybe this is the perfect tempo.
(Rob Challinor)
Composed in 1840. 'Don Giovanni' premiered in 1787.
