Zauberei, Magie, Mythen, Legenden, dies sind die grossen Themen barocker Opern - Ausdruck der Sehnsucht jener Zeit, sich durch die Illusion der Oper dem Phantastischen hingeben zu konnen. Diese unverkennbare Parallele zu unserer Gegenwart ist die Grundlage einer tiefgreifenden kompositorischen und inhaltlichen Auseinandersetzung mit Stoffen und Gesten der Alten Musik, die mich zu einer Reihe von Werken anregt. Sie wird mit dem Zaubergarten - Concertino fur Violine und Kammerorchester gleichsam eroffnet.Die vier Satze 'erwacht - verzaubert - bedroht - entschwunden', deren jeweilige atmospharische Struktur von der Solo-Violine charakterisiert wird (darin ahnlich den vivaldinischen Vier Jahreszeiten), durchlaufen unterschiedliche Stadien der Idiome 'Alter Musik', um sie durch das Prisma unserer Zeit unverbraucht und 'magisch' erscheinen zu lassen. So kann sich der Konzertmeister oder ein Gastsolist auf die Pfade des 'Zaubergartens' begeben, sie lenken oder sich dahintreibend in das Geschehen einfugen.Christian Jost, Mai 2011.

In 2014, I enjoyed a wonderful residence at the Ucross Foundation in Clearmont,Wyoming. Ucross is an artist colony that gives writers, composers, and visual artists thegift of time, space, and support to follow their artistic pursuits; we are provided withstudio space, housing, and meals so that we can work continuously on our projects. I havebeen in residence at numerous artist colonies; however, nothing in my previousexperiences prepared me for living in such isolated, wild country. Ucross is situated on a20,000-acre cattle ranch at nearly 4,000 feet in elevation with fewer than 150 peopleliving within the town. But what Clearmont lacks in population, it makes up forabundantly and spectacularly in wilderness and wildlife. I composed the sextet Postcardsfrom Wyoming to offer three glimpses of what I found to be the most striking aspects ofmy residence. The Solitude of Stars, the third and final movement of the original sextet,was inspired by the stunning nightly display of the heavens above. Without city lightsdimming the night sky, countless stars shone brightly over the vast expanse of the prairie.This edition is part of The Solitude of Stars Project that I undertook during the 2020COVID-19 pandemic, which consists of a series of arrangements that I made forcolleagues and friends.In 2014, I enjoyed a wonderful residence at the Ucross Foundation in Clearmont, Wyoming.

When the Newport Music Festival commissioned me for a piano trio in honor of their 2021 season, I looked for a topic that would celebrate an aspect of the Newport community. While researching the area, I was struck by the nine lighthouses situated around the island. The dual nature of lighthouses was particularly appealing to me: not only do they serve a vital role in the navigation of ships around rocks and land, but they are also a beautiful sight, particularly at night when their blinking beacons are clearly visible to the eye. It occurred to me that lighthouses link the past with the present, and will endure long into the future, with their beacons serving the same purpose for every generation.I became fascinated with the lighthouse on the property of Castle Hill Inn, located at the opening of the East Passage of the Narragansett Bay. This squat thirty-four foot granite structure was erected in 1890 on a very picturesque spot, right at the water’s edge. Its “characteristic,†the nautical term for each lighthouse’s unique light sequence that allows ships to identify the lighthouse, is to alternate on for three seconds, then off for three seconds. The lighthouse has also served as the starting and finish line for numerous high profile yacht races, as well as survived a massive hurricane in 1938, though the lighthouse keeper’s nearby residence wasn’t so lucky. American novelist Thornton Wilder wrote much of his 1973 novel Theophilus North while staying at the Castle Hill Inn; a passage from the book perfectly captures the dual nature of lighthouses:“At a later visit I was able to engage the pentagonal room in a turret above the house; from that magical room I could see at night the beacons of six lighthouses and hear the booming and chiming of as many sea buoys.â€In Beacon of the Bay, we first hear the lighthouse’s characteristic as its ruby light blinks on and off. This is followed by a simple theme that represents the lighthouse performing its solitary duty. As the piece progresses, we hear waves playfully lapping around its base, then yachts gracefully floating by; this is followed by a violent storm that churns the waves with so much force that they crash against the lighthouse’s granite body. But the steadfast lighthouse holds firm to the rocks, grandly blinking its ruby light. The music quiets back down to its simple theme, with yachts sailing by once more as the piece concludes.

Es war 1996, als mir Christoph Poppen, der damalige Leiter des Munchener Kammerorchesters, von einem kuriosen Konzert in Munsing (Ammerland) erzahlte: wahrend eines seiner Konzerte mit dem Orchester in der dortigen Kirche gab es, fur alle hor- und sichtbar, eines der grossten Unwetter, das die Region je gesehen hatte. Dabei schlug der Blitz ein in eine Art Wahrzeichen des Ortes, eine mehrere Jahrhunderte alte Linde. Unter den Zuhorern damals: die dort lebende Dichterin und Schriftstellerin Diana Kempff. Sie war unmittelbar erschuttert vom Tod der Linde und schrieb unter diesem Eindruck einige Gedichte. Christoph Poppen wiederum war - wie in vielen anderen Zusammenhangen auch - genialer Vermittler und stellte alsbald den Kontakt zu mir her. Die Idee: am Ort des Geschehens, in der Munsinger Kirche, solle ein Jahr spater die Urauffuhrung einer Art Requiem fur diesen Baum, der so vieles 'gesehen' hatte, erklingen. Im Rahmen der Holzhauser Musiktagen mit den Texten von Diana Kempff und meiner (noch zu schreibenden) Musik.Es gab bald eine wunderbare, sehr intensive Begegnung von Diana Kempff und mir, bei der sie etwas fur Schriftsteller nicht gerade Typisches tat: sie stellte mir frei, aus den vorliegenden Gedichten nach Belieben lediglich Teile, sogar nur Zeilenfragmente zu verwenden und auch die Reihenfolge nach meinen Bedurfnissen anzuordnen und zu gestalten. Sie begriff sofort (und wunschte!), dass durch die Musik ohnehin etwas Drittes, etwas ganz Anderes entstehen wurde. Die Tatsache, dass wir Monate spater eine sichtlich bewegte Diana Kempff auf die Buhne holen durfte, freute uns alle besonders. Ihre Lyrik ist Ausdruck einer offenkundig zutiefst gequalten Seele und kommt uns oft wunderlich-versponnen entgegen. Einer zerbrechlichen Zartheit steht eine bisweilen fast brutale Harte unversohnlich gegenuber. Das Schubert'sche 'Fremd bin ich eingezogen' gilt fur sie in besonderer Weise und aussert sich in ihren Versen in einer Nahe zu allem Fremden (trotz des gleichzeitigen manischen Umkreisens des Eigenen und der eigenen Erinnerung), Abseitigen und auch (bei aller gleichzeitigen Skepsis) Ubernaturlichen. Dieses geisterhaft-spukige Element versuchte ich durch meine Textauswahl und mit musikalischen Mitteln in diesen nun 'Sieben Abgesangen' zu verdeutlichen. Das erste Stuck ist eine karge Studie uber das Verrinnen der Zeit, das Nichts; das Zweite beschwort den Regen (den heilbringenden) herbei, der dann spater - wenngleich mit entsetzlicher Wirkung - auch kommt. Den dritten Abgesang habe ich 'Tanz der toten Seelen' betitelt; es ist ein Zwiefacher, der jedoch durch seine duster-halbseidene 'Wiener' Chromatik alles Liebenswurdig-Oberbayerische langst verloren hat. Das klanglich vielleicht avancierteste und dichteste Stuck ist der vierte Abgesang, der ganz aus der Perspektive der Linde selbst erzahlt wird. Der funfte Abgesang zu den Worten 'Und wenn der Tod so kommen mag' ist im Stile einer traurigen Volksweise bewusst schlicht gehalten. Wahrend der sechste Satz in seinem expressionistischen Gestus nicht ungefahrlich das Monodram streift, ist es schliesslich die Seele (die ausgehauchte, die weiterexistierende?), die wortlich den letzten Abgesang uber die Baume und die Seelen pragt. Diana Kempffs Gedichte, der Enthusiasmus Christoph Poppens, die phantastischen Urauffuhrungs-Interpreten, allen voran die Sangerin Juliane Banse, haben mich zur Komposition dieser 'Sieben Abgesange auf eine tote Linde' angeregt.Die 'Sieben Abgesange' sind nunmehr auch eine Erinnerung an die erst jungst verstorbene Diana Kempff. Jorg Widmann,im Juni 2008.

Percy Grainger's (1882-1961) love for music of the simple rural folk of the British Isles led to a series of forty-three pieces that he grouped into a series called British Folk-Music Settings, including Molly on the Shore, Irish Reel from British Folk Music Settings, No. 1. Grainger produced at least six versions of this folk tune arrangement of two contrasting Irish Reels (Temple Hill and Molly on the Shore, from The Complete Petrie Collection of Ancient Irish Music), starting with the original 1907 version for string quartet or string orchestra. That same year, Grainger also produced a version for violin solo and piano, which is also available from the publisher. This wholly unique version was freely arranged for violin and piano by famous early 20th century violinist Fritz Kreisler, offering players already familiar with Grainger's original rendition an opportunity to approach the music in a different way. Reprint edition.

Mikko Heiniö's Alla madre (2007) abandons the traditional virtuoso concerto concept: here a large orchestra engages in dialogue with a solo violin. The first movement is called Arrivo, “Arrival: the soloist literally arrives later, and by degrees, playing his/her first two solos offstage. Even then the orchestra continues to take the initiative for a long time. Not until the second movement, entitled Aura, “Air or Wind, does the initiative pass to the solo violin as it sets light to notes in the orchestra harmony like individual lamps. And not until the end of the second movement and the beginning of the third does the solo violin play completely on its own. The title of the first movement, “Arrival, underlines the event, the dramaturgy, whereas that of the second movement, “Aura, alludes to the texture and the shimmering space. The third movement is the most strongly emotional, as the name Carezza, “Caress suggests.This product includes the solo part and the piano reduction (B4 sized).The orchestral material is available from the publisher. The orchestration: 3(III+picc)3(III+ca)3(III=bcl)3(III=cfg)-4331-13-hp-str.

In the years preceding World War I, Hungarian composer, pianist, and ethnomusicologist Béla Bartók (1881-1945) took trips to the Transylvanian region to explore the musical traditions of the Romanian population. Following a two-year depression caused by the war, as well as some professional setbacks, he returned to composition. The Romanian Folk Dances, Sz. 56, emerged in 1915, bearing a strong influence from his experiences as an ethnomusicologist. They comprise 6 dances, all based on folk tunes that Bartók had recorded and transcribed. In 1917, he arranged a version for full orchestra. Hungarian violinist and composer Zoltán Székely (1903-2001) transcribed these six short movements for violin and piano in 1926, which are offered here in this reprint edition. Movements: 1. Joc cu bâta (Stick Dance), 2. Brâul (Sash Dance), 3. Topogó / Pê-loc (In One Spot), 4. Bucsumí tánc / Buciumeana (Dance from Bucsum), 5. Poarga româneasca (Romanian Polka), 6. Aprózó / Maruntel (Fast Dance).
