В сочинении петербургского композитора Ивана Александрова (р. 1987) музыкальными средствами создается образ едва ли не самого яркого и необычного поэта Серебряного века — Велимира Хлебникова. Оригинальный инструментальный состав, включающий деревянные и медные духовые, ударные и фортепиано; выбор известных, но при этом разных по речевому стилю хлебниковских текстов и соответствующие изменения в характере музыки, призванные отразить как сложность и неоднозначность фигуры Поэта в современном ему мире, так и заслуживающую признания сегодня ценность его вклада в сокровищницу русской культуры, — всё это делает "Песни времирей" привлекательным материалом для молодых коллективов, не чуждых эксперимента, способных к работе на стыке разных видов творчества и желающих своими силами восстановить связь времен в отечественном искусстве, перекинуть музыкально-поэтический мост из прошлого в будущее.

From the author
The author’s idea for this Cantata was to draw a sounding portrait of the poet Velimir Khlebnikov — the “Chairman of the Globe”, a temerarious reformer of the Russian poetic language, the creator of “zaumў” (poetical nonsense), who would amalgamate the sounds of nature and those of human speech, Slavic mythology and A. Einstein’s relativity theory.
The first movements of this composition, full of poetic charades and phantasmagory, are followed by those filled with the feeling of loneliness and detachment of the artistic soul living in this world. The cantata ends up with a pantheistic requiem to the Poet. The cantata may be performed with a conductor. In case it is impossible to have orchestral bells for the performance, the latter could be substituted with a vibraphone with the most hard sticks available.
