inches. Following a
celebrated series of wind
ensemble tone poems about
national parks in the
American West, Dan
Welcher’s Upriver
celebrates the Lewis &
Clark Expedition from the
Missouri River to
Oregon’s Columbia
Gorge, following the
Louisiana Purchase of
1803. Welcher’s
imaginative textures and
inventiveness are freshly
modern, evoking our
American heritage,
including references to
Shenandoah and other folk
songs known to have been
sung on the expedition.
For advanced players.
Duration:
14’. In 1803,
President Thomas
Jefferson sent Meriwether
Lewis and William
Clark’s Corps of
Discovery to find a water
route to the Pacific and
explore the uncharted
West. He believed woolly
mammoths, erupting
volcanoes, and mountains
of pure salt awaited
them. What they found was
no less mind-boggling:
some 300 species unknown
to science, nearly 50
Indian tribes, and the
Rockies.Ihave been a
student of the Lewis and
Clark expedition, which
Thomas Jefferson called
the “Voyage of
Discovery,†for as
long as I can remember.
This astonishing journey,
lasting more than
two-and-a-half years,
began and ended in St.
Louis, Missouri —
and took the travelers up
more than a few rivers in
their quest to find the
Northwest Passage to the
Pacific Ocean. In an age
without speedy
communication, this was
akin to space travel out
of radio range in our own
time: no one knew if,
indeed, the party had
even survived the voyage
for more than a year.
Most of them were
soldiers. A few were
French-Canadian voyageurs
— hired trappers
and explorers, who were
fluent in French (spoken
extensively in the
region, due to earlier
explorers from France)
and in some of the Indian
languages they might
encounter. One of the
voyageurs, a man named
Pierre Cruzatte, also
happened to be a
better-than-average
fiddle player. In many
respects, the travelers
were completely on their
own for supplies and
survival, yet,
incredibly, only one of
them died during the
voyage. Jefferson had
outfitted them with food,
weapons, medicine, and
clothing — and
along with other
trinkets, a box of 200
jaw harps to be used in
trading with the Indians.
Their trip was long,
perilous to the point of
near catastrophe, and
arduous. The dream of a
Northwest Passage proved
ephemeral, but the
northwestern quarter of
the continent had finally
been explored, mapped,
and described to an
anxious world. When the
party returned to St.
Louis in 1806, and with
the Louisiana Purchase
now part of the United
States, they were greeted
as national heroes.Ihave
written a sizeable number
of works for wind
ensemble that draw their
inspiration from the
monumental spaces found
in the American West.
Four of them (Arches, The
Yellowstone Fires,
Glacier, and Zion) take
their names, and in large
part their being, from
actual national parks in
Utah, Wyoming, and
Montana. But Upriver,
although it found its
voice (and its finale) in
the magnificent Columbia
Gorge in Oregon, is about
a much larger region.
This piece, like its
brother works about the
national parks,
doesn’t try to
tell a story. Instead, it
captures the flavor of a
certain time, and of a
grand adventure. Cast in
one continuous movement
and lasting close to
fourteen minutes, the
piece falls into several
subsections, each with
its own heading: The
Dream (in which
Jefferson’s vision
of a vast expanse of
western land is opened);
The Promise, a chorale
that re-appears several
times in the course of
the piece and represents
the seriousness of the
presidential mission; The
River; The Voyageurs; The
River II ; Death and
Disappointment; Return to
the Voyage; and The River
III .The music includes
several quoted melodies,
one of which is familiar
to everyone as the
ultimate “river
song,†and which
becomes the
through-stream of the
work. All of the quoted
tunes were either sung by
the men on the voyage, or
played by
Cruzatte’s fiddle.
From various journals and
diaries, we know the men
found enjoyment and
solace in music, and
almost every night
encampment had at least a
bit of music in it. In
addition to Cruzatte,
there were two other
members of the party who
played the fiddle, and
others made do with
singing, or playing upon
sticks, bones, the
ever-present jaw harps,
and boat horns. From
Lewis’ journals, I
found all the tunes used
in Upriver: Shenandoah
(still popular after more
than 200 years),
V’la bon vent,
Soldier’s Joy,
Johnny Has Gone for a
Soldier, Come Ye Sinners
Poor and Needy (a hymn
sung to the tune
“Beech
Springâ€) and
Fisher’s Hornpipe.
The work follows an
emotional journey: not
necessarily step-by-step
with the Voyage of
Discovery heroes, but a
kind of grand arch.
Beginning in the mists of
history and myth,
traversing peaks and
valleys both real and
emotional (and a solemn
funeral scene), finding
help from native people,
and recalling their zeal
upon finding the one
great river that will, in
fact, take them to the
Pacific. When the men
finally roar through the
Columbia Gorge in their
boats (a feat that even
the Indians had not
attempted), the
magnificent river
combines its theme with
the chorale of
Jefferson’s
Promise. The Dream is
fulfilled: not quite the
one Jefferson had
imagined (there is no
navigable water passage
from the Missouri to the
Pacific), but the dream
of a continental
destiny. $45.00 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 1 to 2 weeks | | |

ch. It may be
surprising to see a
fanfare piece
commissioned by a
Japanese ensemble, since
fanfare orchestras are
typically found in
Belgium, Holland and
Luxembourg, and also
France and Switzerland.
Senzoku Gakuen is one of
the largest and
mostprestigious music
universities in Japan,
and home to a wide
variety of ensembles and
orchestras. Since 2006
they have had a fanfare
orchestra, which was
started by Sotaru
Fukaishi, a euphonium
teacher who felt further
performance opportunity
wasneeded for saxhorn
instruments. Fukaishi had
loved the sound of
fanfare orchestras ever
since visiting the World
Music Contest in Kerkrade
(Holland) several years
earlier. Jan Van der
Roost was involved with
this new initiative from
the beginning,and they
were also joined by Manu
Mellaerts for certain
projects. The Dean of the
music department,
Professor Kazuo Tomioka,
fully supports the
ensemble and commissioned
Ostinati. The
première took place on
June 11th at Maeda Hall
inMizonokuchi (Kawasaki)
where Senzoku Gakuen is
based. The piece opens
with an impressive
timpani solo, followed by
brass and saxophone. The
rhythmical pulse remains
constant and the music is
fiery and assertive in
character. A pentatonic
melodygradually emerges
and the music loses its
vehemency and softens.
The initial percussion
ostinati subsequently
recurs and the first
section of the piece
concludes in a similar
mood to the opening. The
second movement is sweet
and melodic, opening
witha long passage for
the saxophone family in a
minor key. The same theme
then appears in the major
and is developed upon;
the music builds to a
majestic orchestral
forte, reminiscent of a
pipe organ in its
sonority. The theme
returns in the
originalminor key with a
change in instrumentation
leading the movement to a
quiet and peaceful end on
a soft E minor chord. The
finale starts with
percussion: a four-bar
pattern is repeated
several times over which
the movement’s
melodic themes
areintroduced. These
melodic elements are
varied and used in
different versions and
the ostinato idea, which
characterizes the entire
piece, is highlighted.
The theme travels through
the orchestra, appearing
on various instruments
and in variousregisters.
It captures the
listener’s
attention and displays
the full range of sound
and colour within the
fanfare
orchestra.
Het is
misschien verrassend dat
dit fanfarewerk is
geschreven in opdracht
van een Japans ensemble,
aangezien fanfareorkesten
vooral te vinden zijn in
België, Nederland en
Luxemburg, en ook wel in
Frankrijk en Zwitserland.

de grootste en meest
prestigieuze
muziekopleidingen van
Japan, en de thuisbasis
van een grote

2006 is er een
fanfareorkest opgericht,
en wel door Sotaru
Fukaishi,
eeneuphoniumdocent die
vond dat er meer
mogelijkheden moesten
komen voor optredens met
saxhoorninstrumenten.
Fukaishi had enkele jaren
daarvoor genoten van de
fanfareklank toen hij het
Wereld Muziek Concours in
Kerkrade bezocht.
DeBelgische componist Jan
Van der Roost was van het
begin af aan betrokken
bij dit nieuwe
initiatief, en ook Manu
Mellaerts werd voor een
aantal projecten
aangetrokken. Het hoofd
van de muziekfaculteit,
professor Kazuo Tomioka,
staatgeheel achter het
ensemble en gaf de
opdracht tot het
schrijven van
Ostinati. De
première vond plaats
op 11 juni in de Maeda
Hall in Mizonokuchi
(Kawasaki), waar Senzoku
Gakuen is gevestigd. Het
werk begint met een
indrukwekkendepaukensolo,
gevolgd door koper en
saxofoon. De ritmische
puls blijft constant, en
de aard van de muziek is
vurig en krachtig.
Geleidelijk komt er een
pentatonische melodie
naar voren en wordt de
muziek minder heftig, ze
wordtzachter van
karakter. De
aanvankelijke ostinati in
het slagwerk verschijnen
dan opnieuw, waarna het
eerste deel van het werk
eindigt in dezelfde sfeer
als waarmee het begon.
Het tweede deel is
lieflijk en melodisch.
Het opentmet een lange
passage voor de saxofoons
in een mineurtoonsoort.
Dan klinkt hetzelfde
thema in majeur en daar
wordt op voortgeborduurd:
de muziek ontwikkelt zich
tot een majestueus
orkestraal forte, dat qua
sonoriteit doet
denken
Es mag
überraschen, dass
dieses
Fanfareorchesterwerk
ausgerechnet von einem
japanischen Ensemble in
Auftrag gegeben wurde, da
Fanfareorchester doch
eher in Belgien, den
Niederlanden oder
Luxemburg oder auch in
Frankreich oder Schweiz
zu finden sind. Senzoku
Gakuen ist eine der
größten und
renommiertesten
Musikschulen Japans und
Heimstätte einer
Vielfalt an Ensembles und
Orchestern. Im Jahr 2006
wurde ein
Fanfareorchester
gegründet. Den
Anstoß gab Sotaru
Fukaishi, ein
Euphoniumlehrer, der den
Instrumenten der
Saxhorn-Familie mehr
Spielmöglichkeiten
bieten wollte. Fukaishi
hatte sich einige Jahre
zuvor bei der
Weltmeisterschaft in
Kerkrade (Holland) in den
Klang
vonFanfareorchestern
verliebt. Jan Van der
Roost war von Beginn an
in die Entwicklung dieser
Idee involviert und,
einige Projekte
betreffend, ebenso Manu
Mellaerts. Der Dekan des
Musik-Colleges, Professor
Kazuo Tomioka, steht voll
und ganz hinter dem
Ensemble und gab
Ostinati in
Auftrag. Die Premiere
fand am 11. Juni 2011 in
der Maeda Hall in
Mizonokuchi statt, dem
Heimatort der Schule
Senzoku Gakuen. Das
Stück beginnt mit
einem eindrucksvollen
Paukensolo, bevor
Blechbläser und
Saxophon einsetzen. Der
rhythmische Puls bleibt
konstant unter einer
feurigen,
nachdrücklichen Musik.
Eine pentatonische
Melodie bildet sich nach
und nach heraus,
während die Musik an
Heftigkeit verliert und
sanfter wird. Die
anfänglichen Ostinati
im Schlagwerk kehren
zurück und so endet
der erste Satz des Werkes
in einer der Eröffnung
ähnlichen Stimmung.
Der zweite Satz ist
lieblich und melodiös.
Er beginnt mit einem
langen Abschnitt für
die Saxophone in Moll.
Dann erscheint das
gleiche Thema in Dur und
durchläuft eine
Entwicklung; die Musik
baut sich zu einem
majestätischen
orchestralen Forte auf,
das in seiner
Klangfülle an eine
Orgel erinnert. Dann
kehrt das Thema in seiner
ursprünglichen
Moll-Tonart und in
veränderter
Instrumentierung
zurück, um den Satz
ruhig und friedvoll in
einem e-Moll-Akkord enden
zu lassen.
Il
pourrait paraître
surprenant qu’un
ensemble japonais puisse
commander une pièce
pour orchestre de
fanfare, puisque
l’on rencontre
surtout ce type de
formation en Belgique,
aux Pays-Bas et au
Luxembourg, ainsi
qu’en France et en
Suisse. Senzoku Gakuen,
l’une des plus
grandes et plus
prestigieuses
académies de musique
du Japon, compte une
grande variété
d’ensembles et
d’orchestres. En
2006 s’y est
ajouté un orchestre de
fanfare fondé par
Sotaru Fukaishi, un
professeur
d’euphonium qui
pensait qu’il
était nécessaire
d’offrir de plus
larges possibilités
aux cuivres de la
région. Depuis
qu’il avait
assisté au World Music
Contest de Kerkrade
(Pays-Bas), plusieurs
années
auparavant,Fukaishi se
prit de passion pour le
son chaud et
généreux de
l’orchestre de
fanfare, une formation
atypique au Japon. Jan
Van der Roost a
favorablement
adhéré cette
nouvelle initiative,
tandis que Manu Mellaerts
collabora avec les deux
hommes afin de
concrétiser certains
projets. Le professeur
Kazuo Tomioka, doyen du
collège de musique,
soutint vigoureusement
l’orchestre et
commanda Ostinati.
La création de
l’oeuvre fut
donnée le 11 juin 2011
au Maeda Hall de
Mizonokuchi (Kawasaki),
où se trouve Senzoku
Gakuen. La pièce
débute avec un
impressionnant solo de
timbales précédant
l’entrée des
cuivres et des
saxophones. La pulsion
rythmique est constante,
la musique est
énergique et de
caractère affirmé.
Une mélodie
pentatonique émerge
graduellement, alors que
la trame musicale diminue
d’intensité et
s’adoucit.
L’ostinato la
percussion revient
fréquemment et la
première partie de
l’oeuvre se
termine dans un climat
semblable celui du
début. Le deuxième
mouvement, doux et
romancé, débute
avec un long passage en
mode mineur joué par
les saxophones. Le
même thème
apparaît alors en mode
majeur et se développe
peu peu ; la musique
s’intensifie pour
arriver un majestueux et
orchestral forte dont les
sonorités rappellent
celles d’un orgue
d’église. Puis
le thème revient sa
tonalité mineure
d’origine avec un
changement
d’instrumentation
qui mène. $478.95 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 2 to 3 weeks | | |

Vielfalt an Ensembles und
Orchestern. Im Jahr 2006
wurde ein
Fanfareorchester
gegründet. Den
Anstoß gab Sotaru
Fukaishi, ein
Euphoniumlehrer, der den
Instrumenten der
Saxhorn-Familie mehr
Spielmöglichkeiten
bieten wollte. Fukaishi
hatte sich einige Jahre
zuvor bei der
Weltmeisterschaft in
Kerkrade (Holland) in den
Klang
vonFanfareorchestern
verliebt. Jan Van der
Roost war von Beginn an
in die Entwicklung dieser
Idee involviert und,
einige Projekte
betreffend, ebenso Manu
Mellaerts. Der Dekan des
Musik-Colleges, Professor
Kazuo Tomioka, steht voll
und ganz hinter dem
Ensemble und gab
Ostinati in
Auftrag. Die Premiere
fand am 11. Juni 2011 in
der Maeda Hall in
Mizonokuchi statt, dem
Heimatort der Schule
Senzoku Gakuen. Das
Stück beginnt mit
einem eindrucksvollen
Paukensolo, bevor
Blechbläser und
Saxophon einsetzen. Der
rhythmische Puls bleibt
konstant unter einer
feurigen,
nachdrücklichen Musik.
Eine pentatonische
Melodie bildet sich nach
und nach heraus,
während die Musik an
Heftigkeit verliert und
sanfter wird. Die
anfänglichen Ostinati
im Schlagwerk kehren
zurück und so endet
der erste Satz des Werkes
in einer der Eröffnung
ähnlichen Stimmung.
Der zweite Satz ist
lieblich und melodiös.
Er beginnt mit einem
langen Abschnitt für
die Saxophone in Moll.
Dann erscheint das
gleiche Thema in Dur und
durchläuft eine
Entwicklung; die Musik
baut sich zu einem
majestätischen
orchestralen Forte auf,
das in seiner
Klangfülle an eine
Orgel erinnert. Dann
kehrt das Thema in seiner
ursprünglichen
Moll-Tonart und in
veränderter
Instrumentierung
zurück, um den Satz
ruhig und friedvoll in
einem e-Moll-Akkord enden
zu lassen.
Il
pourrait paraître
surprenant qu’un
ensemble japonais puisse
commander une pièce
pour orchestre de
fanfare, puisque
l’on rencontre
surtout ce type de
formation en Belgique,
aux Pays-Bas et au
Luxembourg, ainsi
qu’en France et en
Suisse. Senzoku Gakuen,
l’une des plus
grandes et plus
prestigieuses
académies de musique
du Japon, compte une
grande variété
d’ensembles et
d’orchestres. En
2006 s’y est
ajouté un orchestre de
fanfare fondé par
Sotaru Fukaishi, un
professeur
d’euphonium qui
pensait qu’il
était nécessaire
d’offrir de plus
larges possibilités
aux cuivres de la
région. Depuis
qu’il avait
assisté au World Music
Contest de Kerkrade
(Pays-Bas), plusieurs
années
auparavant,Fukaishi se
prit de passion pour le
son chaud et
généreux de
l’orchestre de
fanfare, une formation
atypique au Japon. Jan
Van der Roost a
favorablement
adhéré cette
nouvelle initiative,
tandis que Manu Mellaerts
collabora avec les deux
hommes afin de
concrétiser certains
projets. Le professeur
Kazuo Tomioka, doyen du
collège de musique,
soutint vigoureusement
l’orchestre et
commanda Ostinati.
La création de
l’oeuvre fut

UPC: 680160902453. 9 x 12
inches. Key: E
major. Edited by
Elisa Koehler, Associate
Professor and Chair of
the Music Department at
Goucher College, this new
edition of Johann Nepomuk
Hummel's Concerto in E
Major for trumpet in E
and piano presented in
its original key. The
concerto by Johann
Nepomuk Hummel
(1778–1837)holds a
unique place in the
trumpet repertoire. Like
theconcerto by Joseph
Haydn (1732–1809)
it was written forthe
Austrian trumpeter Anton
Weidinger
(1766–1852) andhis
newly invented keyed
trumpet, performed a few
timesby Weidinger, and
then forgotten for more
than 150 yearsuntil it
was revived in the
twentieth century. But
unlikeHaydn’s
concerto in Eb major,
Hummel’s Concerto
a Trombaprincipale (1803)
was written in the key of
E major for atrumpet
pitched in E, not
E≤. This difference
of key proved tobe quite
a conundrum for
trumpeters and music
publishersin the
twentieth century. The
first modern edition,
publishedby Fritz Stein
in 1957, transposed the
concerto down onehalf
step into the key of
E≤ to make it more
playable on atrumpet in
Bb, which had become the
standard instrumentfor
trumpeters by the middle
of the twentieth
century.Armando Ghitalla
made the first recording
of the Hummel in1964 in
the original key of E (on
a C-trumpet) after
editinga performing
edition in 1959 in the
transposed key of
E≤ (forBb trumpet)
published by Robert King
Music. Needless tosay,
the trumpet had changed
dramatically in terms of
design,manufacture, and
cultural status between
1803 and 1957, andthe
notion of classical solo
repertoire for the modern
trumpetwas still in its
formative stages when the
Hummel concertowas
reborn.These factors
conspired to create
confusion regarding
thenumerous
interpretative challenges
involved in performingthe
Hummel concerto according
to the composer’s
originalintentions on
modern trumpets. For
those seeking the
bestscholarly
information, a facsimile
of Hummel’s
originalmanuscript score
was published in 2011
with a separatevolume of
analytical commentary by
Edward H. Tarr,1 whoalso
published the first
modern edition of the
concertoin the original
key of E major (Universal
Edition, 1972).This
present
edition—available
in both keys: Eb and
Emajor—strives to
build a bridge between
scholarship
andperformance traditions
in order to provide
viable options forboth
the purist and the
practitioner.Following
the revival of the Haydn
trumpet concerto, acase
could be made that some
musicians were
influencedby a type of
normalcy bias that
resulted in
performancetraditions
that attempted to make
the Hummel morelike the
Haydn by putting it in
the same key,
insertingunnecessary
cadenzas, and adding
trills where they
mightnot belong.2 Issues
concerning tempo and
ornamentationposed
additional challenges. As
scholarship and
performancepractice
surrounding the concerto
have become betterknown,
trumpeters have
increasingly sought to
performthe concerto in
the original key of E
major—sometimes
onkeyed
trumpets—and to
reconsider more recent
performancetraditions in
the transposed key of
Eb.Regardless of the key,
several factors need to
be addressedwhen
performing the Hummel
concerto. The most
notoriousof these is the
interpretation of the
wavy line (devoid of
a “trâ€
indication), which
appears in the second
movement(mm. 4–5
and 47–49) and in
the finale (mm.
218–221).
InHummel’s
manuscript score, the
wavy line resembles a
sinewave with wide,
gentle curves, rather
than the tight,
buzzingappearance of a
traditional trill line.
Some have argued that
itmay indicate intense
vibrato or a fluttering
tremolo betweenopen and
closed fingerings on a
keyed trumpet.3 In
Hummel’s1828 piano
treatise, he wrote that a
wavy line without a
“trâ€sign
indicates uneigentlichen
Triller oder den
getrillertenNoten
[“improperâ€
trills or the notes that
are trilled],
andrecommends that they
be played as main note
trills that arenot
resolved [ohne
Nachschlag].4
Hummel’s piano
treatisewas published
twenty-five years after
he wrote the
trumpetconcerto, and his
advocacy for main note
trills (rather thanupper
note trills) was
controversial at the
time, so trumpetersshould
consider all of the
available options when
formingtheir own
interpretation of the
wavy line.Unlike Haydn,
Hummel did not include
any fermatas
wherecadenzas could be
inserted in his trumpet
concerto. The endof the
first movement, in
particular, includes
something likean
accompanied cadenza
passage (mm.
273–298), a
featureHummel also
included at the end of
the first movement ofhis
Piano Concerto No. 5 in
Ab Major, Op. 113 (1827).
Thethird movement
includes a quote
(starting at m. 168)
fromCherubini’s
opera, Les Deux
Journées (1802), that
diverts therondo form
into a coda replete with
idiomatic fanfares
andvirtuosic figuration.5
Again, no fermata appears
to signal acadenza, but
the obbligato gymnastics
in the solo trumpetpart
function like an
accompanied cadenza.Other
necessary considerations
include tempo choicesand
ornamentation. Hummel did
not include
metronomemarkings to
quantify his desired
tempi for the
movements,but clues may
be gleaned through the
surface evidence(metric
pulse, beat values,
figuration) and from the
stratifiedtempo table
that Hummel included in
his 1828 piano
treatise,where the first
movement’s
“Allegro con
spirito†is
interpretedas faster than
the “Allegroâ€
(without a modifier) of
the finale.6In the realm
of ornamentation, Hummel
includes severalturns and
figures that are open to
interpretation. This
editionincludes
Hummel’s original
symbols (turns and
figuration)along with
suggested realizations to
provide musicians
withoptions for forming
their own
interpretation.Finally,
trumpeters are encouraged
to listen to Mozart
pianoconcerti as an
interpretive context for
Hummel’s
trumpetconcerto. Hummel
was a noted piano
virtuoso at the end ofthe
Classical era, and he
studied with Mozart in
Vienna asa young boy.
Hummel also composed his
own cadenzas forsome of
Mozart’s piano
concerti, and the
twenty-five-year-oldcompo
ser imitated
Mozart’s
orchestral gestures and
melodicfiguration in the
trumpet concerto (most
notably in the
secondmovement, which
resembles the famous slow
movement
ofMozart’s Piano
Concerto No. 21 in C
Major, K. 467). $34.99 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 2 to 3 weeks | | |

composer writes, 'Quite
some time ago I heard -
through a conversation in
a mobile phone - a
wonderful concert of
ringing church bells from
an European capital. I
found it very hard to
concentrate about the
conversation, because I
was so engrossed by the
chaotic world of bell
sound. The night after, I
dreamt that the sound of
those low singing bells
was rising up from a
piano in a huge empty
concert hall. That
experience became the
starting point for my
piano piece, 'The Shadows
of Silence'. But before
the piece gets to the
ringing bells it moves
through a landscape of
shadows - Shadows of the
silence before the bells
- Silence before the
storm - Shadows of
melodies which all the
time leaves traces even
in the short passages of
storm. After the passage
with the low ringing
bells the shadows of
silence returns melted in
to a lament, which are
sending two regards. One
to two small beautiful -
not very well known -
bars by Mozart, and one
to the sextet in my own

Latin - German. On
letting go(Concerning the
selection of the texts)
In the selection of the
texts, I have allowed
myself to be motivated
and inspired by the
concept of 'letting go'.
This appears to me to be
one of the essential
aspects of dying, but
also of life itself. We
humans cling far too
strongly to successful
achievements, whether
they have to do with
material or ideal values,
or relationships of all
kinds. We cannot and do
not want to let go,
almost as if our life
depended on it. As we
will have to practise the
art of letting go at the
latest during our hour of
death, perhaps we could
already make a start on
this while we are still
alive. Tagore describes
this farewell with very
simple but strikingly
vivid imagery: 'I will
return the key of my
door'. I have set this
text for tenor solo. Here
I imagine, and have
correspondingly noted in
a certain passage of the
score, that the
protagonist finds himself
as though 'in an ocean'
of voices in which he is
however not drowning, but
immersing himself in
complete relaxation. The
phenomenon of letting go
is described even more
simply and tersely in
Psalm 90, verse 12: 'So
teach us to number our
days, that we may apply
our hearts unto wisdom'.
This cannot be expressed
more plainly.I have begun
the requiem with a solo
boy's voice singing the
beginning of this psalm
on a single note, the
note A. This in effect
says it all. The work
comes full circle at the
culmination with a repeat
of the psalm which
subsequently leads into a
resplendent 'lux
aeterna'. The
intermediate texts of the
Requiem which highlight
the phenomenon of letting
go in the widest spectrum
of colours originate on
the one hand from the
Latin liturgy of the
Messa da Requiem (In
Paradisum, Libera me,
Requiem aeternam, Mors
stupebit) and on the
other hand from poems by
Joseph von Eichendorff,
Hermann Hesse,
Rabindranath Tagore and
Rainer Maria Rilke.All
texts have a distinctive
positive element in
common and view death as
being an organic process
within the great system
of the universe, for
example when Hermann
Hesse writes: 'Entreiss
dich, Seele, nun der
Zeit, entreiss dich
deinen Sorgen und mache
dich zum Flug bereit in
den ersehnten Morgen'
['Tear yourself way , o
soul, from time, tear
yourself away from your
sorrows and prepare
yourself to fly away into
the long-awaited
morning'] and later: 'Und
die Seele unbewacht will
in freien Flugen
schweben, um im
Zauberkreis der Nacht
tief und tausendfach zu
leben' ['And the
unfettered soul strives
to soar in free flight to
live in the magic sphere
of the night, deep and
thousandfold']. Or Joseph
von Eichendorff whose
text evokes a distant
song in his lines: 'Und
meine Seele spannte weit
ihre Flugel aus. Flog
durch die stillen Lande,
als floge sie nach Haus'
['And my soul spread its
wings wide. Flew through
the still country as if
homeward bound.']Here a
strong romantically
tinged occidental
resonance can be detected
which is however also
accompanied by a
universal spirit going
far beyond all cultures
and religions. In the
beginning was the sound
Long before any sort of
word or meaningful phrase
was uttered by vocal
chords, sounds,
vibrations and tones
already existed. This
brings us back to the
music. Both during my
years of study and at
subsequent periods, I had
been an active
participant in the world
of contemporary music,
both as percussionist and
also as conductor and
composer. My early scores
had a somewhat
adventurous appearance,
filled with an abundance
of small black dots: no
rhythm could be too
complicated, no register
too extreme and no
harmony too dissonant. I
devoted myself intensely
to the handling of
different parameters
which in serial music
coexist in total
equality: I also studied
aleatory principles and
so-called minimal music.I
subsequently emigrated
and took up residence in
Spain from where I
embarked on numerous
travels over the years to
India, Africa and South
America. I spent repeated
periods during this time
as a resident in
non-European countries.
This meant that the
currents of contemporary
music swept past me
vaguely and at a great
distance. What I instead
absorbed during this
period were other
completely new cultures
in which I attempted to
immerse myself as
intensively as possible.I
learned foreign languages
and came into contact
with musicians of all
classes and styles who
had a different cultural
heritage than my own: I
was intoxicated with the
diversity of artistic
potential.Nevertheless,
the further I distanced
myself from my own
Western musical heritage,
the more this returned
insistently in my
consciousness.The scene
can be imagined of
sitting somewhere in the
middle of the Brazilian
jungle surrounded by the
wailing of Indians and
out of the blue being
provided with the
opportunity to hear
Beethoven's late string
quartets: this can be a
heart-wrenching
experience, akin to an
identity crisis. This
type of experience can
also be described as
cathartic. Whatever the
circumstances, my
'renewed' occupation with
the 'old' country would
not permit me to return
to the point at which I
as an audacious young
student had maltreated
the musical parameters of
so-called contemporary
music. A completely
different approach would
be necessary: an
extremely careful
approach, inching my way
gradually back into the
Western world: an
approach which would
welcome tradition back
into the fold, attempt to
unfurl the petals and
gently infuse this
tradition with a breath
of contemporary
life.Although I am aware
that I will not unleash a
revolution or scandal
with this approach, I am
nevertheless confident
as, with the musical
vocabulary of this
Requiem, I am travelling
in an orbit in which no
ballast or complex
structures will be
transported or intimated:
on the contrary, I have
attempted to form the
message of the texts in
music with the naivety of
a 'homecomer'. Harald

inches. Manfred
Trojahn on the origin and
title of his impressive
virtuoso solo
work: Admittedly I do
not know if he had
seagulls, but since
Mendelssohn was born in
Hamburg, he will not have
gone through life without
at least the impression
of the cry of seagulls.
Nor do I know if seagulls
played any part in his
life in Rome. I myself
was astonished when, one
or two years ago in the
Villa Massimo, I was, not
exactly annoyed but
disturbed by the strong
rhythmical cry of
seagulls. I was just
about to write a bassoon
solo when the seagulls
started. Then the
idea came to me that
precisely this sequence
of notes could serve as
the basis of the work.
And the sequence for the
bassoon solo is, in turn,
the basis of the piece
for violoncello - this is
how titles are born... Of
course the violoncello
meanders with virtuosic
ease from the seagull
motif to the 'elf-like'
skittering brought to
music by Mendelssohn and
used time and again in
his compositions, finally
becoming a cabaletta.
Now, cabalettas are not
very representative of
Mendelssohn, but as I was
composing I definitely
wanted to put a cabaletta
in this passage. I am
sure Mendelssohn and I
will easily agree on
this, especially since
later justice is done to
him in the rapid passages
and, of course in the
tonal cadenza at the very
end, which is more
indicative of his time
than of mine ... isn't
it?

ish comments: My
dedication to the string
instruments has been a
constant throughout my
compositional career and
I knew that sooner or
later the time would come
to compose a concerto for
violin and orchestra.
That moment came in the
autumn of 2002 and after
ten months of
uninterrupted work I
finished it in August of
2003. It is a work
structured similarly to
the traditional
concertos. An important
impetus for the
elaboration of my
concerto was due to the
ill-fated violinist
Ginette Neveu. Her
version of Sibelius'
Concerto has always
stayed with me. For this
reason the first
movement,
Moderato-Allegro, begins
with a contemplative
atmosphere similar to
that of Sibelius'
Concerto in which the
principal thematic ideas
appear tentatively. These
ideas, two rhythmic and
two melodic, are
reaffirmed through a
broad development that
culminates in an
orchestral fullness. A
calm, mysterious passage
recalls the introduction
and after becoming
blurred, three bars burst
in leading to the rapid
section of the movement.
Soloist and orchestra
engage in a dialectic
struggle of a dramatic
nature. The agitation
subsides leaving only a
tranquil and suggestive
clarinet phrase. This
will be taken up by the
soloist who leads up to
the movement's most
dramatic moment playing
an accelerating triplet
figure supported by an
orchestral pedal in
crescendo. From here the
soloist's cadenza emerges
beginning with soft
double notes. It finishes
with an ascending
progression and the
soloist settles into the
high register to elicit
the orchestra's
intervention in a soft
and transfigured
atmosphere. Once
internalised the second
movement, Adagio poco
sostenuto e leggero
begins. It has a solemn
character and opens with
two trumpet calls
answered by the
violoncellos and the
contrabasses. The violin
soloist introduces and
plays two nostalgic
themes, the first in the
low register and the
second, more extensive,
in the middle register.
The soft and delicate
Misterioso e leggero
begins with the violin
singing on high. The
rhythm of the constant
quaver figures gradually
accelerates until the
soloist provokes a
dramatic full orchestra
as in a cadenza. Once
again, the Calmo, in
which the soloist with
less and less orchestral
attire serenely bids
farewell. A rising series
of double stops by the
soloist serves to
initiate the
Finale-Scherzo. In 6/8
rhythm and with the
character of a rondo it
carries us along in a
carefree, virtuosic
ambiance. The principal
motives, brief and
concise, emerge from the
happy, playful theme
presented by the soloist.
With an intricate
progression of rapid
sixths in double stops it
reaches a tense and
somewhat combative
moment. However this
resolves itself in a
diminuendo that the
soloist peacefully takes
up with the notes re-la
to commence the cadenza.
This culminates in a
series of tied notes to
reintroduce the principal
theme. A moment of
melodic suspension serves
as a farewell before the
brief and jovial final
coda. --The

concierto para violin y
orquesta. Este llego en
otono de 2002 y, tras
diez meses de trabajo
ininterrumpido, lo
termine en agosto de
2003. Se trata de una
obra estructurada de
manera similar a los
conciertos tradicionales.
Un importante impulso a
la elaboracion de mi
concierto lo debo al
recuerdo de la malograda
violinista Ginette Neveu.
Su version del concierto
de Sibelius ha
permanecido siempre
dentro de mi. Por ese
motivo, el primer
movimiento
Moderato-Allegro se
inicia con una atmosfera
contemplativa cercana a
la del mencionado
Concierto, en la que
aparecen cautamente las
principales ideas
tematicas. Con un amplio
desarrollo se llega a un
lleno orquestal en el que
estas ideas -dos ritmicas
y dos melodicas- quedan
reafirmadas. Un pasaje
calmo y misterioso
rememora la introduccion.
Tras desdibujarse,
irrumpen tres compases
que nos llevan a la parte
rapida del movimiento.
Solista y orquesta
establecen un combate
dialectico de caracter
dramatico. La inquietud
desaparece hasta una
tranquila e insinuante
frase del clarinete. Esta
sera recogida por el
solista, quien, a base de
una figuracion de
tresillos cada vez mas
rapidos apoyada por un
pedal de la orquesta in
crescendo, conduce hacia
el momento mas dramatico
del movimiento. De aqui
nace la cadenza del
solista, que se incia con
suaves notas dobles.
Finaliza con una
progresion ascendente y
el solista se coloca en
el registro agudo para
llamar la intervencion de
la orquesta dentro de una
atmosfera suave y
transfigurada.
Interiorizado es el
segundo movimiento Adagio
poco sostenuto e leggero.
Con dos llamadas de las
trompas respondidas por
los violonchelos y
contrabajos inicia el
Adagio de caracter grave.
El violin solista
introduce y canta dos
temas nostalgicos. El
primero en el registro
grave y el segundo, mas
amplio, en el medio.
Inicia el Misterioso e
leggero, de caracter
suave y delicado. Con el
violin cantando en agudo.
La constante figuracion
de corcheas acelerara
poco a poco el ritmo
hasta que el solista a
modo de cadenza provocara
un dramatico lleno
orquestal. De nuevo el
Calmo, donde el solista,
cada vez con menos ropaje
orquestal, se despide
serenamente. Una subida
de dobles cuerdas a cargo
del solista sirve para
iniciar el
Finale-Scherzo. Este, en
ritmo de 6/8 y con
caracter de rondo, nos
transporta en un clima
virtuosistico y
despreocupado. Del tema
alegre y jugueton
presentado por el solista
nacen los principales
motivos, breves y
concisos. Con una
intrincada sucesion de
rapidas sextas en doble
cuerda se llega a un
momento crispado y algo
combativo que, sin
embargo, se resolvera en
un diminuendo que el
solista recoge
apaciblemente con las
notas re-la para inciar
la cadenza. Esta culmina
con un suave rosario de
notas en ligado para
introducir de nuevo el
tema principal. Un
momento de suspension
melodica sirve como
despido antes de la breve
y jovial coda final. La
obra fue estrenada el 23
de septiembre de 2005 en
el Teatre Monumental de
Madrid por la Orquesta
Sinfonica de RTVE con
Markus Placci de solista
y Uwe Mund de director.

680160038244. This
work is my second for a
solo woodwind and a solo
percussionist, following
Firewing: The Flame and
the Moth for oboe and
percussion by nine years.
The earlier piece
followed a specific story
line, and pitted the oboe
against the percussionist
as both adversary and
lover. In Spirit Realms,
my aim was not only to
juxtapose the very
different sounds of flute
(plus alto flute and
piccolo) against a large
array of percussion, but
also to attempt three
different meditative
spaces, each named for a
different type of
spiritual practice. The
musical means of
expression is very
different for each of the
three movements (as is
the instrumentation),
although they share a
common scale-source: the
looped pentatonic scale I
have been developing over
the last several years.
The first movement
is called Prayer Tunnel,
and is named for the
Eskimo practice of solo
meditation within a
tunnel of ice blocks.
This is said to be a
means of overcoming
demons within, and in my
musical rendering it
takes the form of an
unaccompanied alto flute
solo. The flute begins
rather angrily, full of
tension, but in the
course of the solo
passage manages to slowly
unwind. The percussionist
then plays the exact same
music the alto flute had
played....on seven tuned
cymbals. Toward the end,
the alto flute re-enters,
its original meditation
having fused with its
mirror. Kiva
represents the circular,
subterranean pit in which
the Anasazi practiced
their religion, a form of
which still can be found
in the Hopi tribes of the
American southwest. These
are not spaces for solo
meditation, but rather a
group meeting place in
which only the sanctified
are permitted. After an
introductory invocation
(dove call), the music
begins. At first, it is
flowing, in a repetitive
double-five meter. It
then traces several
sections, with metric
shifts forcing the pulse
to race faster and
faster, until it halves
itself in the coda and
returns to the exact
pulse of the beginning.
The flutist here uses the
C flute, and the
percussionist plays on
both pitched (marimba)
and unpitched instruments
(various drums and struck
sources). Zendo is
the meditation room used
by Zen Buddhists. My
music begins with another
invocation (wind chimes,
temple cup gongs, and
temple blocks), then
moves on to a slow
subject stated by the
flute. The subject is
taken up by the
vibraphone, and after
several modulations and
tempo changes, the
flutist takes up the
piccolo. The music
continues higher and
higher, and faster and
faster (Zen meditation is
NOT all about becoming
lost!) until it breaks
free at the very end. The
percussionist is put
through his paces in this
movement, having to reach
a staggering number of
instruments in a short
time. Spirit
Realms was commissioned
by, and is dedicated to,
the Armstrong Duo. -- Dan
