The House That I Built was commissioned by the Festival Oude Muziek Utrecht (Utrecht Early Music Festival), for the rather unusual scoring of positive organ, theorbo, bass gamba and two sopranos. The sopranos are Eugénie Warnier (artist-in-residence in the Utrecht festival) and Elodie Fonnard. The ensemble is the Strassbourg based Le Parlement de Musique, led by organist Martin Gester. The recording (by Concertzender) is the first performance of the song.
The lyrics are a three-line song in Henry Thoreau’s Walden:
This is the house that I built,
This is the man that lives in the house that I built,
These are the folks that worry the man that lives in the house that I built.
