As composer-in-residence at the Music from Angel Fire festival in New Mexico, Stucky was commissioned for a new chamber work, Rain Shadow, written for Opus One. For inspiration, Stucky looked to the incredible works of Scottish sculptor Andy Goldsworthy. Much of the piece underscores contrasts between the piano and the violin, viola, and cello, with the strings working largely as a unit, frequently intoning their unpredictable harmonies in homophonic rhythms... Rain Shadow is big on clarity, easy to follow, and attractive to the ear, even letting loose (near the end) a big ol' Romantic theme that wouldn't be out of place in a cinematic epic set in outer space. (James M. Keller, Listen Up, Santa Fe New Mexican).

Manfred Trojahn’s amply dimensioned piano quartet in four movements with a duration of approx. 40 minutes was composed and developed in several stages.

The inner movements, a Vivace characterised by lombard rhythms and vitality and a dream-like adagio were written in the Mozart Year 2005. By 2008 the outer movements were completed.
The opening Adagio “Zerbrochenes Lied” is an imposing lamentation of the dead whereas the Finale, a profound, moving “Wanderlied”, was dedicated to Trojahn’s friend and composer Wilhelm Killmayer on the occasion of his 80th birthday.
In this way Trojahn’s work stands in the tradition of Mozart’s two piano quartets, but adds a biographical element.

This is a large, musically demanding but rewarding work for ambitious musicians.
