Maximal
Funeral by Bernhard
Gander is a 13-minute
work for two natural
trumpets, percussion (two
players) and string
orchestra. The piece is a
long funeral march and
was inspired by the fact
that years before his
death Emperor Maximilian
always took a coffin with
him on his travels to be
prepared for
it.
Maximal Funeral
was made possible by the
Hilde Zach Scholarship
2017 by the City of
Innsbruck. The premiere
performance by the
Tiroler Kammerorchester
InnStrumenti conducted by
Gerhard Sammer took place
on 9 March 2019 at the
Canisianum, Innsbruck

Composer's Note: De
profundis ad lucem (out
of the depths towards
light) opens with an
atmosphere of stillness,
out of which two main
sections emerge, one
reflecting hope and the
other struggle. Hope is
expressed with a
recurring theme that
gradually layers upon
itself, imparting a
feeling of birth. This
section suddenly gives
way to struggle,
represented with loud
brass, biting accents,
and thundering timpani
figures. Following an
extended musical
landscape, these two
sections return, only in
reverse, with struggle
resolving into hope. The
work ends in tranquillity
as it began. --N.G.

Gesualdo,
Don Carlo, Furst von
Venosa (1560-1613) gehort
zu den eigenwilligsten
italienischen
Madrigal-Komponisten der
Spatrenaissance. Seine
ungewohnlich kuhne,
selbst fur heutige Ohren
modern klingende
Harmonik, seine
chromatischen
Stimmfortschreitungen,
seine ubersteigerte
expressive Tonsprache
regten mich schon vor
Jahren zu einer grosseren
Orgelkomposition an und
inspirierten mich 1981 zu
den >>Sinfonischen
Metamorphosen<<. Dieses
Werk ist eine
vielgestaltige
weitausgesponnene
Fantasie. Sieben
choralartige typische
Klangbeispiele aus
Gesualdos spaten
funfstimmigen Madrigalen
(4., 5. u. 6. Band)
werden teils streng,
teils frei zitiert und
von Holz- oder
Blechblasern intoniert.
Diese Zitate gliedern,
als formale und
inhaltliche Schwer- und
Ruhepunkte, den Verlauf
des gesamten Werks. Jedes
Zitat steht zu Beginn
eines neuen
Satzabschnitts; die
darauffolgenden
>>Metamorphosen<<
entwickeln sich als
rhapsodische
kontrastreiche
Charakterstucke. Im
>>Preludio<< werden aus
den vertonbaren
Buchstaben vom Namen
>>Gesualdo<< (G - E - Es
- A - D) schwebende
Klangflachen,
rezitativische Gedanken
und ein pragnantes
rhythmisches Paukenthema
gebildet. Diese
,,Grundelemente
(Grundstrukturen) tauchen
im Verlauf des Stucks
immer wieder
leitmotivisch auf. Im
zweiten Abschnitt stehen
sich lineare
Streicher-Episoden und
dichte
Blaser-Klangballungen
kontrastierend gegenuber.
Der dritte Teil lauft als
Passacaglia (Thema ist
der Bass eines
Gesualdo-Zitats) in
mehreren Variationen ab.
Im vierten Abschnitt
dominiert lebhafte
Streicherbewegung,
kontrapunktiert von
tiefen Blaser-Signalen.
Der funfte Teil steigert
sich- nach kantablem
Beginn- zum ekstatischen
Trauermarsch. Abschnitt
sechs stellt sich als
>>Rondello<< dar, mit um
sich selbst kreisenden
Klangfiguren (in
verschiedenen Tongruppen
(zwei, drei, funf). Im
siebten und letzten Teil
wird die
verhalten-resignierende
Stimmung des Anfangs
beschworen, ehe eine
knappe Stretta in den
hymnischen Schluss
mundet. In den Textender
ausgewahlten Zitatstellen
geht es meist um
Todessehnsucht,
Liebesqual und
Verzweiflung. z. B. 1.
und 2. Zitat: Moro lasso,
al mio duolo (Ich sterbe,
matt, an meiner Qual) (6.
Buch) 3. Zitat: Gia
piansi nel dolore; o
dolorosa Sorte (Schon
weinte ich in Schmerzen,
oh schmerzliches
Geschick) (6. Buch) 4.
Zitat: Ahi gia mi
discolero (Ach schon
entfarbte ich mich)
(Wehe, der Tod kommt) (4.
Buch) 5. Zitat:
Dolcissima mia vita (Mein
allerliebstes Leben)
(Dich zu lieben oder zu
sterben) (5. Buch) 6.
Zitat: lo moro (Ich
sterbe) (5. Buch) Dem
Werk liegen zwar eine
Reihe von
dodekaphonischen
Strukturen zugrunde (die
teilweise von Gesualdos
Klangzitaten abgeleitet
wurden), doch sind die
einzelnen Abschnitte
auf,,tonale Pfeiler (G -
E - A - D) gegrundet; das
Stuck beginnt in G und
endet aufD, ist also
ubergeordnet tonal
konzipiert, - der Versuch
einer Synthese moderner
Ausdrucksmittel von
Vergangenheit und
Gegenwart. Die
>>Metamorphosen<< sind
ein Stuck Bekenntnismusik
- Bekenntnis zum Leben
und Schaffen Gesualdos,
eines Mannes, der vom
Schicksal gezeichnet war,
denn der Chronik Neapels
bekannt war durch die
Ermordung seiner ersten
Frau und ihres
Liebhabers. Dieser
eminente Musiker war
zugleich ein Mensch von
ubertriebener
Sensibilitat und wilder
ekstatischer Heftigkeit:
,,Er wurde von einer
Horde von Damonen
heimgesucht, die ihm
keine Ruhe gaben, heisst
es in einem
zeitgenossischen Bericht.
Seine Kunst und sein
Leben stand unter dem
Gesetz der inneren
Zerrissenheit, zwischen
Auflehnung und
Resignation (Verzweiflung
und Hoffnung), zwischen
Zartheit und
Leidenschaft. Davon will
meine Musik etwas
aussagen. (Jurg

Progr
am note: Christmas Fugue,
like the charming English
folk tune on which it is
based, is full of the
spirit and fun that is
Christmas. After a slow
shimmering introduction
which imparts an
impression of Christmas
morning, the fugue
subject is abruptly
introduced. The fugue
subject: We Wish You a
Merry Christmas. The work
develops through a series
of playful musical
episodes which afford
satisfying opportunities
for the various sections
of the orchestra. The
fugue culminates in a
combination of motifs
which find the brass
heralding the
unmistakable arrival of
Christmas. The Composer:
Dr. Robert Bennett Brown
has devoted much of his
professional teaching
career to musical
compositions and
arrangements for young
orchestral enthusiasts.
Christmas Fugue, like
other of Dr. Drown's
published works, was
written in and for the
actual teaching
situation. At the present
time, Robert Bennett
Brown is District
Supervisor of Music for
the Levittown, N.Y.
Public Schools.
Previously, for some
nineteen years, he taught
in Bronxville, N.Y.
where, as Chairman of
Music, he brought about
an extremely high level
of school orchestral
achievement. he was
educated at New York
University and Teachers
College, Columbia
University. He has served
as a field supervisor of
student teaching for New
York University and as a
general music consultant.
For the past two years he
has been a member of the
New York State Music
Regents Committee. To the
Conductor: You will find
this work to be the
conductor's dream. Parts
are easy but impressive
sounding. The total
effect will give your
orchestra that typical
classical sound so
satisfying to performer
and listener alike. Full
or exact instrumentation
is not a must; cross-cues
will carry critical areas
where a specified
instrument may be
lacking. Piano, tuba, and
saxophone parts are
written to accommodate
those players where they
exist. These parts are
not essential to the
instrumentation. Though
Christmas Fugue is well
suited to the interests
of high school orchestra
pursuits, its grade of
difficulty is easily
handled by any junior
high school group of
average ability.

Progr
am note: Christmas Fugue,
like the charming English
folk tune on which it is
based, is full of the
spirit and fun that is
Christmas. After a slow
shimmering introduction
which imparts an
impression of Christmas
morning, the fugue
subject is abruptly
introduced. The fugue
subject: We Wish You a
Merry Christmas. The work
develops through a series
of playful musical
episodes which afford
satisfying opportunities
for the various sections
of the orchestra. The
fugue culminates in a
combination of motifs
which find the brass
heralding the
unmistakable arrival of
Christmas. The Composer:
Dr. Robert Bennett Brown
has devoted much of his
professional teaching
career to musical
compositions and
arrangements for young
orchestral enthusiasts.

Conte
xtures: Riots -Decade '60
was commissioned by Zubin
Mehta and the Southern
California Symphony
Association after the
successful premiere of
the Concerto for Four
Percussion Soloists and
Orchestra. It was written
during the spring and
summer months of 1967.
Riots stemming from
resentment against the
racial situation in the
United States and the war
in Vietnam were occurring
throughout the country
and inevitably invaded
the composer's creative
subconscious.
Contextures, as the title
implies, was intended to
exploit various and
varying textures. As the
work progressed the
correspondence between
the fabric of music and
the fabric of society
became apparent and the
allegory grew in
significance. So I found
myself translating social
aspects into musical
techniques. Social
stratification became a
polymetric situation
where disparate groups
function together. The
conflict between the
forces of expansion and
the forces of containment
is expressed through and
opposition of tonal
fluidity vs. rigidity.
This is epitomized in the
fourth movement, where
the brass is divided into
two groups - a muted
group, encircled by the
unmuted one, which does
its utmost to keep the
first group within a
restricted pitch area.
The playful jazzy bits
(one between the first
and second movements and
one at the end of the
piece) are simply saying
that somehow in this age
of turmoil and anxiety
ways of having fun are
found even though that
fun may seem
inappropriate. The piece
is in five movements,
with an interlude between
the first and second
movements. It is scored
for a large orchestra,
supplemented by six
groups of percussion,
including newly created
roto-toms (small tunable
drums) and some original
devices, such as muted
gongs and muted
vibraphone. There is also
an offstage jazz quartet:
bass, drums, soprano
saxophone and trumpet.
The first movement begins
with a solo by the first
clarinetist which is
interrupted by
intermittent heckling
from his colleagues
leading to a
configuration of large
disparate elements. The
interlude of solo violin
and snare-drum follows
without pause. The second
movement, Prestissimo, is
a display piece of
virtuosity for the entire
orchestra. The third
movement marks a period
of repose and reflection
and calls for some
expressive solos,
particularly by the horn
and alto saxophone. The
fourth movement opens
with a rather lengthy
oboe solo, which is
threatened by large
blocks of sound from the
orchestra, against an
underlying current of
agitated energy in the
piano and percussion.
This leads to a section
in which large orchestral
forces oppose one
another, ultimately
bringing the work to a
climax, if not to a
denouement. Various
thematic elements are
strewn all over the
orchestra, resulting in
the formation of a
general haze of sound. A
transition leads to the
fifth movement without
pause. The musical haze
is pierced gently by the
offstage jazz group as if
they were attempting to
ignore and even dispel
the gloom, but a legato
bell sound enters and
hovers over both the jazz
group and the orchestra,
the latter making
statements of disquieting
finality. Two films were
conceived to accompany
portions of Contextures.
The first done by Herbert
Kosowar, was a
chemography film
(painting directly into
the film using dyes and
various implements) with
fast clips of riot
photographs. The second
was a film collage made
by photographically
abstracting details from
paintings of Reginald
Pollack. The purpose was
to invoke a non-specific
response - as in music -
but at the same time to
define the subject matter
of the piece. The films
were constructed to
correspond with certain
developments in the piece
and in no way affect the
independence and musical
flow of the piece, having
been made after the piece
was completed.
Contextures: Riots -
Decade '60 is dedicated
to Mehta, the Southern
California Symphony
Association and the Los
Angeles Philharmonic
Orchestra. The news of
the assassination of Dr.
Martin Luther King came
the afternoon of the
premiere, April 4, 1968.
That evening's
performances, and also
the succeeding ones, were
dedicated to him and a
special dedication to Dr.
King has been inserted
into he score. All the
music that follows the
jazz group - beginning
with the legato bell
sound playing the first 2
notes to We shall
overcome constitutes a
new ending to commemorate
Dr. King's death.

Time
is one of the main
factors impacting the
world and our lives.
Einstein saw time as the
relationship of the
motion of one object
relative to the position
of another object, as
measured through
observation. But can we
really measure time
objectively? Music, the
art which moves through
time, can affect our
perception of time, and
can affect each person's
perception of time
differently. Depending on
the emotion it
stimulates, music can
make time seem to pass
quickly or slowly. A
composer can use music to
convey time to an
audience and different
musical ideas can create
different sensations of
time. Absence of Time is
a concerto for woodwind
quartet and orchestra. It
has three main sections
(fast, slow, fast),
recalling traditional
concerto form, but it
does not use the solo
instruments in the
traditional way, i.e., as
soloists in contest with
the orchestra. Inspired
by the idea of
juxtaposing different
experiences of time, I
divided the instruments
into two groups: the four
soloists and the
orchestra. The orchestra
functions mostly as the
keeper of time (real
time) while the quartet
of soloists fluctuates
(in imaginary time or in
the absence of time)
around the orchestra's
time. While the quartet's
instruments do play
solos, they also play in
ensemble with the
orchestra. You could say
that they play in both
imaginary time (as
soloists) and in real
time (with the
orchestra). In addition
to this, the woodwind
section of the orchestra
plays in conversation
with the solo quartet,
calling it back to real
time. Fusion is achieved
at the end of the piece
through the use of
strong, driving rhythm.
Absence of Time was
commissioned by the
Pacific Symphony and was
first performed by the
Pacific Symphony and the
Pacific Symphony Woodwind
Quartet with Carl St.
Clair as conductor on
October 20, 2016.
