'The Millennium Song' is a song to announce the dawn of the third millenium. It is an arrangement of Frederic Chopin's Prelude op. 20 in C minor, with original, idealistic lyrics that speak of the coming of a new era, and which implores humanity to forget and forgive the past.
It is a monumental song for a monumental period in the time we are living. I live in Catalonia, Spain, and an interesting fact that I discovered recently was that Chopin composed many of these preludes during his stay in Mallorca. The musical idea was to incorporate four different musical styles in one song: classical music, rock music, jazz and, finally, a modern techno rhythm. The challenge was to pass from the classical original to techno in three minutes! But the most innovative aspect of my idea was to release the song simultaneously in several languages.
I wrote the lyrics in English, and then asked friends from other regions of Spain and then other parts of the world to make various translations and adaptations of the words. All four principal languages of Spain have been recorded: Catalan, Castillian (Spanish), Basque and Gallician. All these versions as well as the original English version and an Occitan version (the language of southern France) are available on this web page in MP3 format for downloading. Technical questions or problems regarding these files are dealt with. In addition, the backing music, without voice, is also available for download.
Because it is of higher quality (CD-level rather than radio), the file will take somewhat longer to download. I would encourage all of you who are sensitive to the music and to their own language, wherever you are, to adapt the song. Chopin's original sheet music is also available. Once you have done your translation, there are two possibilities: - submit the translation to us for possible recording at a later date. - have your version recorded and submit the recording to us for insertion in this web page.
Some tips for translating and adapting the song to your own language may be obtained by clicking. In either case, you should contact us at, so that we can coordinate your efforts. This may be the first truly global song in history! HAPPY MILLENNIUM! Sant Fruitos de Bages Catalunya.
