Herrmann
wanted to write a musical
portrait of his friend
and colleague Alfred
Hitchcok, so choose
motifs from the movie The
Trouble With Harry, one
of Hitchcock's more
personal and humorous
films. This
single-movement work for
Orchestra employs some of
the more familiar
elements of Herrmann's
compositional style:
short musical phrases
repeated and then
repeated again in other
positions, sharp use of
dynamics among them. From
the first note, the
creepiness begins.Bernard
Herrmann was among the
very greatest of all
composers of music for
cinema and there are many
who avow that he was the
greatest of all. A very
short list of the films
for which this
award-winning
composercreated
soundtracks includes
Citizen Kane, The Man Who
Knew Too Much, Vertigo,
Jason and Argonauts,
Fahrenheit 451, Obsession
and Taxi Driver. He had a
long and fertile
association with Alfred
Hitchcock during the most
productive period of
Hitchcock's career and
with Orson Welles from
the time of the Mercury
Theatre on the Air. In
addition to his
conducting and composing
work for the
entertainment world,
Herrmann wrote concert
pieces, including a
symphony, opera and
cantata.

Exit Music for
Orchestra was composed by
Bent Sorensen in 2006-07.
Exit Music was
commissioned by the
Bergen International
Festival for the Bergen
Philharmonic Orchestra,
and is dedicated to Per
Norgard on the occasion
of his 75th birthday.
Programme note It began
with a dream, as it
always does when I
compose. I dreamt that I
was standing in an open
doorway on a hill in an
otherwise open landscape.
I do not know what was
behind the door, but in
front of it - towards the
landscape - I saw my
music disappearing. I
stood looking for the
music, and started to
hear it, to remember it
in time with its
disappearance. The dream
continued to recur as
strange pictures in my
daydreams, and I
continued to try to write
down the music that had
vanished. It was also the
dream that gave the piece
its title- Exit Music.
Exit Music is based on
three simple songs (the
songs that vanish through
the doorway): a little
lullaby, which continues
to reappearin fragments;
a strange polyphonic pop
song that refers to a
section of my opera Under
the Sky; and a passionate
little love song, which
concludes the piece on
the strings, very quietly
and in unison. These
simple songs are then
constantly overpainted by
enervating repeated motes
in fairly simple rhythms,
which push the songs out
of the room. (Bent
Sorensen).

Franz von
Schober.
In late
September or early
October 1821 Schubert and
his close friend, Franz
von Schober, vacationed
in the countryside of
Lower Austria. Their
first stopover was at
Ochsenburg Castle, which
belonged to the Bishop of
St. Pölten (a close
relative of
Schober’s), after
which they moved on to
St. Pölten itself.
Roughly a year earlier,
two stage works by
Schubert had been
performed in Vienna: the
one-act singspiel Die
Zwillingsbrüder and
the melodrama Die
Zauberharfe. The
librettos were both
written by the seasoned
Viennese playwright Georg
von Hofmann, who blamed
the press for the
indifferent reception the
two works were given by
the audience. Schubert
and Schober now decided,
it would seem, to write a
grand romantic opera
uninfluenced by the
workaday world of the
theatre and beholden
solely to their own ideas
of what an opera should
be.
Not until 24
June 1854 was the opera
finally performed in
Weimar, under the baton
of Franz Liszt. It only
achieved success,
however, in an
arrangement by Johann
Nepomuk Fuchs that was
staged on many German and
Austrian stages in
1881–2, allegedly
with brilliant
acclaim.

Prog
ramme Note Poul Ruders
WIND-DRUMMING
WIND-DRUMMING was written
in 1979 on a commission
from The Danish
Percussion Ensemble. The
piece is a clash of two
kinds of
sound-associations, the
mystic, exotic impact of
Latin-American drumming,
and the more well dressed
reputation of Western
concert-instruments, in
this case a wind-quintet
(w. electric flute). The
two instrumental camps
either melt into one soft
humming ritual or are
split wide apart, the
winds tearing their way
through the undergrowth
of rainforest-drumming.
There is more than one
way of getting on to
WIND-DRUMMING: obviously
it is about the
confrontation of two
incongruent ways of
living, a lament on the
damage done tothe
tropical rainforests of
the world by modern
civilisation. One can
hear it plainly as a
direct rhythm-show, a
downright number or a
joyous homage to the most
exiting kind of
folkloristic music at
all: the carnal spell of
the Brazilian Samba. Poul
Ruders.

Like Hamlet
Overture, originating at
about the same time,
Tchaikovsky's 5th
symphony, composed in
1888, focuses on the
human existential
question: To be or not to
be - triumph over fate or
triumph of fate? The per
aspera ad astra
dramaturgy underlying the
symphony culminates in
triumphant certainty. If
Tchaikovsky was initially
euphoric, then severe
self-doubts befell him
after he conducted the
premiere in St.
Petersburg. These doubts
demonstrably led him to
make interpretative
changes for the Hamburg
performance in 1889,
including a cut in the
finale. Only with the
extremely positive
response to this
performance did his
doubts dispel.
Nevertheless, Tchaikovsky
himself never again
conducted the 5th
symphony. It was only
posthumously established
in the repertoire through
Arthur Nikisch's
commitment. The new
edition's textual
criticism takes into
account besides the
autograph and first
edition also the first
edition's orchestral
parts, together with the
piano arrangement
produced from the
autograph by Sergei
Taneyev. In addition to
thoroughly clarifying
dynamics and
articulation, the source
comparison also corrected
many errors and solved
problematical passages,
such as, for instance,
the trombone entry in m.
372 of the finale.
Considered, moreover, for
the first time has been
the composer's doubts
about his work and its
ambiguities, frequently
successfully suppressed
in the history of its
performance and
reception. Tchaikovsky's
conductor's copy is
unfortunately lost, hence
his alterations made for
the Hamburg performance
are not precisely known.
They have survived only
indirectly through
remarks that Willem
Mengelberg left to
posterity, for which he
could draw on
Tchaikovsky's conductor's
score and oral references
by the composer's brother
Modest. So, anyone
wishing to deal seriously
with the work's
certainties will not be
able to do so in the
future without having
also to deal with its
uncertainties.
