Rudi Martinus van Dijk
Rudi Martinus van Dijk( 27 March 1932 – 29 November 2003) was a Dutch and Canadian composer of orchestral, chamber and vocal music.
In all Van Dijk's music, whichever of his stylistic trends it seems immediately to favour, the voice of a highly original creator is to be heard.
Sources, as Béla Bartók noted, are much less important in framing a composer's achievement than the use he makes of them.
The discriminating ear that makes Van Dijk's orchestral music at once beguiling and immediately recognisable as a personal expression is also to be discerned on the smaller sound- scale of his chamber compositions.
And one of Van Dijk's most notable characteristics- a purposeful firmness of the bass line- imbues his music in all genres with an unfailing sense of logical and expressive direction, even in the context of a highly inflected harmonic chromaticism.
It would be a bold annotator who ventured to pin Van Dijk's artistic origins down to one or other national or stylistic source.
What can be said is that he has, with unusual success, blended an emotional intensity at times evocative of the world of Austro- German expressionism with a fascinating subtlety and indirectness of utterance suggestive rather of French affinities.
From time to time, the analyst with a taste for such trouvailles may detect what seem like 12- note series in Van Dijk's writing; but these are the incidental consequence of his avoidance of casual note-repetition, and they are never exploited in systematic serial manner.
For Van Dijk is no follower of systems, but rather a creator with the richly endowed imagination of a poet, a thinker, and a voracious reader to bring to expression, and the single mindedness needed to realise that aim.
One of the properties of mercury is that it does not amalgamate with the matter in which it has contact, but rather remains by its very nature intrinsically unadulterated in form.
It is this unadulterated quality, which is the watermark of Rudi Martinus van Dijk's compositional creative process; a quality, which marks him as a composer belonging to all ages and, at the same time, to no age at all.
