The opera was greeted with exceptional enthusiasm in Paris in 1791, during the French Revolution. The Swiss freedom fighter was already a well-known character there nearly 15 years before Schillers drama. A number of arias from Gretrys opera even survived the success of Rossinis work of the same name of 1829.

The Stadtmusikkapelle Wilten-Innsbruck (Austria) invited Belgian composer Jan Van der Roost to write a work to mark the bicentenary of the Tyrolean fight for freedom, which was settled in 1809. Various musical elements reflect this historical event. First, a hymn-like section rings out, based on melodic fragments from the ‘Tiroler Landeshymne’ (by Leopold Knebelsberger), which intertwine in a counterpoint-like arrangement. The second passage is more bellicose in character, and mirrors the fight of the Tyroleans - under the inspiring leadership of freedom fighter Andreas Hofer (1767-1810) - against Bavarian, French and Italian troops. Next, a broad, chorale-style melodyappears again: here, the imposing beauty of nature in Tyrol, and the amiable, lively temperament of the people who live in this mountainous region, are glorified.This is neither a programmatic work around an historical reconstruction, nor a politically inspired work: it is a combination of factual and cultural components, with an artistic and sonorous character. The use of the flugelhorn in particular gives Tirol Terra Fortis its ‘couleur locale’: for this beautiful instrument can invariably be found in the Austrian wind band. The commissioning music society had therefore specifically asked the composer to incorporate the instrument in this work. It certainly enhances the already extensive colour palette of the modern concert band!

Een hymne bestaand uit fragmenten van het Tiroolse volkslied. Strijdlustige klanken in het tweede deel. Tot slot een melodie in koraalstijl die de bewoners van Tirol en de indrukwekkende schoonheid van de natuur beschrijft. Hebt ual een idee? Tirol Terra Fortis is een programmatisch werk rondom de geschiedenis van Andreas Hofer en de vrijheidsstrijd van Tirol 200 jaar geleden. De bugel geeft dit kunstzinnige en klankvolle werk zijn bijzondere ‘couleurlocale’.

Eine Hymne aus Fragmenten der Tiroler Landeshymne, kämpferische Klänge im zweiten Teil und schließlich eine Melodie im Choralstil, welche die eindrucksvolle Schönheit der Natur und die Menschen in Tirol beschreibt. Sie haben es erraten? Tirol Terra Fortis ist ein programmatisches Werk rund um die Geschichte Andreas Hofers und den Freiheitskampf Tirols vor 200 Jahren. Der Einsatz des Flügelhorns verleiht diesem künstlerischen und klangvollen Werk ein besonderes Lokalkolorit.

Le compositeur belge Jan Van der Roost a composé cette œuvre la demande de l’Orchestre d’Harmonie Municipal de Wilten-Innsbruck en Autriche pour les cérémonies commémoratives du bicentenaire de l’insurrection tyrolienne de 1809. Plusieurs éléments musicaux reflètent cet événement historique travers un climat joliment évolutif. L’orchestre énonce un thème hymnique basé sur des fragments mélodiques de l’hymne officiel du Land du Tyrol (ou Hymne d’Andreas Hofer composé par Leopold Knebelsberger) qui se mélangent et se confondent dans un arrangement en forme de contrepoint. Le dessin belliqueux du second mouvement rappelle la lutte des Tyroliens contre les troupesbavaroises, françaises et italiennes, l’instigation du combattant de la liberté Andreas Hofer (1767-1810). Enfin, on retrouve une mélodie de style choral qui évoque avec ferveur l’imposante beauté des paysages du Tyrol, et transmet la chaleur et le caractère jovial des habitants de cette région montagneuse. Tirol Terra Fortis n’est ni une reconstruction historique en musique (autrement dit, une œuvre programme), ni une œuvre politique. Son contenu repose sur une combinaison d’éléments factuels et culturels qui s’expriment travers une trame artistique très expressive. Le bugle a su conserver la fidélité des Orchestres d’Harmonie autrichiens. Intégré dans la texture orchestrale de cette œuvre de commande la demande expresse de la formation dédicataire, le bugle donne une couleur locale la composition et enrichit la large gamme des couleurs sonores de l’Orchestre d’Harmonie.

L'uso del flicorno, in particolare, conferisce al Tirol Terra Fortis il suo colore locale: questo bellissimo strumento si può sempre trovare nelle bande austriache.

The image of Hans Pfitzer, unlike that of his fellow composers Mahler, Strauss or Schoenberg, still is under a veneer of myth-making: Benevolent biographers stylized him as a national fighter, the last romantic or the other-worldly loner while critics generalized individual negative traits and regarded him as a querulous person and misanthropist, a reactionary and conservative. In fact, his thinking and music-making were rooted in the 19th century, and it is only today that the independence and originality of his works seem to be noticed much clearer from an evolved historical perspective. Based on the meticulous studies of all sources, the author draws an understanding as well as critical and differentiated picture of Pfitzner and, looking beyond the main work 'Palestrina', turns the reader's gaze to a multi-faceted oeuvre.
