Rurik in Byzantium,
Music Prose Compostion.
An musical discussion which commences, upon Novgorod - Kiev during the year anoque domini 862 with Prince Hrorek {Rurik} upon the invitation, of the Byzantine Princess, of Rus. Hrorek saves the Princess and her family, from the Pechenegs. Rurik founds the first Dynasty of Rus {Russia}. He establishes a firm trade economy with Byzantium - which his posterity continues. The First and Second Movements.
Ruthelois _ Arles; The Princess Anne of Russia, weds to King Henry the first of France. The second and third movement commences upon France; Paris {Letitia} during the early eleventh century. The flourishment, of the lingua franca which arose between Paris and the Kingdom of Arles {Arelat} occasioned a most enlightening period, in the national relations of Europe.
The fourth movement. The Danes under King Sven-Otto upon the northern frontier reconcile their expansion of Europe, as the Sixth Duke of Normany William Rex consolidates his patrimony in Northern France and looks to England.
The fifth movement; history once again shifts its' focus to the new Orthodox development of Italo Byzantine Worship Building, in most of the extant and growing country, of Russia. While elsewhere in Europe west the first of nine crusades {Croisade} begins to inspire, the hearts of holy and devout believers.
The sixth movement; Upon the advent, of the third crusade ending, and the fourth crusade beginning, a veritable resurgence of hope has begun to animate the favorable actions, of the multitudes. The historic limelight thus dawns upon France - Denmark to the north, and upon France - Brittany to the west. The three century mature "mercahnts market" which was introduced by the Counts of Blois in Champagne France has now thoroughly interested, every recognized commercial nation on the map. In spite of the parallel conflicts between, the Teutons and Russians, or between Christendom and Islam. Somehow the flower of chivalry romance and gaiety blossoms, from the coast of central Brittany - to the southeast southern Provence.
The seventh movement; Upon the sudden incursion, of the far east mongol hordes, which by the late thirteenth century had weakend to a considerable sense, the great demense of Mid Crusade Era Russia, the consequent marriage alliances arranged and consumated, with the sovereign ruling families of Scandinavia, and the same of Russia, eventualy bolstered the integral quality of Ancient Rus and so enabled a recovery, of the over run lands, of traditional Russia. The Era from Mstislav "The Bold" to Ivan "The Terrible".
The eighth movement; Ruthelois - Iseland {Iceland}. The reminiscent moments of revived Europe. Scandinavia to the west, and Europe - Russia to the east. The Era which had for seven centuries embraced both hemispheres East and West. And settled the conscience of mankind is thus reflected, in a pastoral albeit musical comment, in the finale.

Duisburg Summer {Sommer}
{The opening scene} The environ of Nachichevan {The first settlement city which Noah built, directly following the great deluge – flood – of Anoque Adami `1656 | B’ C’ E’ 2348}.
One of his {Noah’s} descendents whom was named Ascanius, along with a group of followers, though rather captains of their own families, set out from the environ of Nachichevan and coursed directly West Northward, until eventually arriving at the {now known north west prominence of Europe}. The point location was called Duisburg and is known to this day from those moments of antiquity. To except the period of years, anterior to the famous Trojan War circa Anoque Adami 2934 _ 3034 | B’ C’ E’ 1170 _ 1070. At which time Wolfheim Sichenger the historic reknown chieftan, among the many continuing descendents of Ascanius - and his group - of Twenty Captains, of Families, signals a yet dark and uncertain period of history in that the recordation - of the same - is absent.
Thus we resume or and continue our Opera – Ballet – Symphony {Duisburg} upon;
The moment of Hartwake {The early Saxon Chieftan whom is by conjecture considered a most likely descendent of Wolfheim Sichenger - or of the native entourage which was knowable, anterior to the mysterious period above noted} whom is found to have continued circa about Anoque Adami 3700 _ `3800 | 304 _ `204 B’ C’ E’ and from whom the unbroken lineage is clear upon historic recordation as evidenced from also neighboring European Nations whom were literate in their own particular way intelligent.
There fore the first piece, through the third piece – the first movement through the sixth movment are depicted upon the Era of Ascanius - until the mysterious period of Wolfheim Sichenger. Albeit the fourth piece, through the seventh piece – the seventh movement, through to the fourteenth movement – are depicted upon the Era of Hartwake - until the Era of Charlemagne. Circa Anoque Adami 4749 | A’ D’ 745.
The finale, albeit the instance upon whence Pepin {The father of Charlemagne, and King of France} makes a gift of the Papal States - to the Vatican Pope. And so signals the burgeoning and flourishment, of the Holy Roman Empire id est; litany in a festive celebration of Christ.
