Das muntere Werk komponierte Harald Heilmann in einem Satz, wobei zwei Moderato-Teile einen miteinander korrespondierenden Rahmen bilden: Der Eröffnungsteil wird nach einem Mittelteil wiederholt und schließlich mit einem temporeichen Schluss und sich stetig steigernder Dynamik beendet. Für den Komponisten ist die Wiederholung ein adäquates musikalisches Mittel, um bei den Spieler/innen und Hörer/innen einen Wiedererkennungseffekt hervorzurufen und damit Vertrautheit zu schaffen. In diesem Sinne setzt er melodische und rhythmische Motive wiederholt ein, allerdings in immer neuen Zusammenhängen und Harmonien, so dass ein gleichsam farbiges und lebendiges Tongemälde entsteht. Wechselnoten und die Durchmischung der überwiegend binären mit gelegentlichen ternären Rhythmen schaffen rhythmische Lebendigkeit; lange Noten und Pausen geben dem Stück eine innere Struktur. In Auftrag gegeben wurde das Werk von dem bulgarischen Konzertpianisten, Komponisten und Klavierpädagogen Ivan Shekov. Die Uraufführung erfolgte am 17. Oktober 1999 durch Julia Taube und Anika Wippich in Tettnang, wo der Auftraggeber an der dortigen Musikschule unterrichtete. Das Stück, das für fortgeschrittene junge Musiker/innen ebenso geeignet ist wie für professionelle Künstler/innen auf dem Konzertpodium, bietet viel Raum für die musikalische Ausgestaltung des Titels: Die Spielanweisung a tempo beinhaltet die Erwartung bzw. Möglichkeit, mit Tempowechseln zu arbeiten. Da der Komponist selbst keine Angaben dazu in den Notentext gesetzt hat, ist hier die individuelle künstlerische Freiheit eines jeden einzelnen Interpretenduos gefragt. (Ulrike Lausberg).

The final movement of the Sonata in A major K. 331 by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, the Rondo Alla Turca, is one of the most famous pianopieces of all. Once reserved for all music connoisseurs, later played by every piano student, its opening melody, alienated like a sine tone, is now omnipresent even as a mobile phone ringtone. The arrangement by Fazil Say, created as an effective encore, builds on this popularity. Mounted on the still recognizable classic basic level, typical jazz elements such as syncopation of the top tones and embellishment with chromatic blue notes, embedded in sometimes frenzied chains of sixteenth notes, are found - after the first eight bars have been presented originally. In accordance with the improvisational character, Say himself likes to perform his Alla Turca Jazz in other combinations, for example with the accompaniment of jazz singers or with an orchestra. Perhaps it is surprising that Fazil Say, who was born in Turkey and lives there when not on tour, does not trace Mozart's adaptation of genuinely Turkish music closer to its origins, since many of his compositions such as Black Earth or the Violin Sonata are characterized by a subtle touch Combination of classic-romantic tradition, Turkish folk music and jazz elements. In another Mozart arrangement, the ballet music Patara, which premiered in Vienna in 2006, but now composed on the rococo-esque (and almost equally popular) theme from the first movement of the same A major sonata, Say still has the connection denied to the Alla Turca, albeit inthe opposite direction. In distinctive chamber music instrumentation, the piano stands for Western culture, the ney flute for that of the Orient, atmospherically conveyed by sparse percussion and vocalises by a soprano.

Everybody knows it, and for many a player it was perhaps the first tentative attempt to coax sounds out of the piano: Chopsticks. The origin of this popular piano piece, like that of most folksongs, cannot be ultimately settled today. Legend has it that it was written by Ferdinand Loh and that the designation of the work 'F. Loh: Walzer' eventually turned into 'Flohwalzer'. But no matter who actually wrote the waltz: It is, without doubt, one of the most famous piano pieces and known all over the world. In France, it is called 'Cotelettes' [Chops], in Great Britain 'Chopsticks', and in Mexico 'Los Changuitos' (Little Monkeys). Technically speaking, however, it is not even a waltz. It is composed in 2/4 time and, with regard to style, rather is a polka or a galop. Eric Mayr transcribed the 16-bar original into a concert version for piano duet.
