In
1983, my friend and
colleague Arnt Martin
made me read and listen
to a most interesting
piece of music for
soprano, viola d'amore
and strings, this work
called my attention to
the viola d'amore. In the
following year, I became
more and more absorbed in
the possibilities this
instrument offers and in
1985 decided to write a
morceau d'ensemble
including a viola
d'amore. Thus birth was
given to Mysterion, a
composition for which
these five musicians seem
tailormade. As to
content, Mysterion
represents a reflection
on death. Passing through
various stages, the music
describes a path up to
the mysteries of
Redemption. Volker David
Kirchner.
