Three Autumn Sketches after a Watercolor by Maria Willscher (2017) are dedicated to Hans-Peter Bahr. The music is inspired by a watercolor painting by Maria (Neumann) Willscher (1922-1998) entitled Herbststimmung. The three movements explore moods and colors of autumn as reflected in the painting. In the first movement, Herbststimmung (Autumn Mood), a musical line falls under gentle undulation. A central section is a wistful chorale. The second movement, Herbstfarben (Autumn Colors), reflects on the subtle variety and gradations of autumn colors with constantly shifting armonic colors. The final movement, Sonnenuntergang (Sunset), is inspired by the serenely beautiful colors of an autumn sunset, imagining the sun's departing rays illuminating the autumn landscape. Instrumentation: Organ Duration: 16' Composed: 2017 Published by: Zimbel Press.

At last the bass clarinet can shine in this major new solo work for bass clarinet and concert band. This composition begins with a rather mysterious opening passage with atmospheric sounds and effects. The soloist plays - preferably backstage - a number of fragments and melodic patterns, without actually “starting” the piece. After this somewhat hesitant introduction, a lively, cheerful allegro entitled Con Giocondita (with joy) bursts out. It is swarming with irregular meters, changing tempos, and polyrhythm, through which the listeners (and sometimes also the musicians) constantly get the feeling that they are being tossed around. The second movement brings rest andpeace making careful use of sound colours. The upbeat finale, titled Con Allegria (with cheerfulness), is the most significant movement for the soloist. This is a challenging piece of music that demands great virtuosity, but with the correct performer it will be a real highpoint in any concert..

In een mysterieuze openingspassage zijn atmosferische klanken te horen. Dan barst er een vrolijk allegro los: Con Giocondita (met vreugde). Een intiemer tweede deel, Con Tristezza (met droefheid), brengt rust. Het orkestspeelt hier een belangrijke rol en laat allerlei klankkleuren horen in de dialoog met de solist. De onstuimige finale getiteld Con Allegria (met vrolijkheid) vraagt grote virtuositeit van de solist, het orkest doet opnieuwmeer dan alleen begeleiden. Na een korte cadens worden de drie voorafgaande thema’s in omgekeerde volgorde herhaald en een spannend slot beëindigt dit contrastrijke werk.

Freude, Traurigkeit und Fröhlichkeit sind die drei Stimmungen, die Jan Van der Roost in diesem Werk für Bassklarinette und Blasorchester in ebenso vielen Sätzen vertonte. Während die Freude in einem rhythmischen, energiereichen und lebhaften Allegro zum Ausdruck kommt, setzt der zweite, langsamere Satz lyrische und melodische Akzente. Das schnelle Finale ist eine große Herausforderung an den Solisten. Auch das Blasorchester spielt in diesem musikalisch erfinderischen Werk eine weit mehr als begleitende Rolle.

Tre Sentimenti (Trois sentiments) pour Clarinette Basse et Orchestre d’Harmonie est un carrefour inédit de sentiments contrastés (l’exubérance, la tristesse, l’allégresse) et d’idées musicales captivantes.
