Tchaikovsky spent the summer and autumn of 1880 at his sister's country estate in Kam'ianka, Ukraine, where he sought peace and relaxation. But after a short time the desire to work took hold of him again. “I'm sketching a symphony or string quintet just now; I don't know where it's going yet,” he wrote to his friend and patroness Nadezhda von Meck. In the end it turned out to be a Serenade for String Orchestra, which numbers among his most beautiful inspirations and is today a central work in the genre. The four movements captivate with their diverse moods – be it the Mozartian first movement “in the form of a sonatina”, the elegant Waltz, the melancholy “Elegia” or the rousing Finale. For this new source-critical edition it was possible to consult the autograph in Moscow as well as the early printed editions into which Tchaikovsky sometimes entered a number of minor revisions. Clear the stage for the new reference edition of this indispensable work of the string-orchestra repertoire!

The five chants, written for a singer friend of mine, span an arc that starts with the self-confident Spanish dancer, through seasonal and naturalistic observations (autumn day, The Panther) to the touching observation of a blind woman, and finally with the philosophical reflection Here is everything Home ends. Putting Rilke's complex poetry into music is a challenge for every composer (and performer). Martin Christoph Redel traces the changing moods; B. through associations with Iberian folklore (Spanish dancer), monotonous circles of constant harmony sequences (The Panther) or the most economical accompaniment as in a prayer recitative (Here be everything to us).
