Nacht Und
Trompeten by Hans
Abrahamsen (1981).
Programme note: The piece
is dedicated to Hans
Werner Henze, from whose
request the piece arose.
The music unfolds in a
space, in which the
memory of the earlier
music has the same
reality as the music of
today. But the music of
the memory is naturally
distant and vague,
whereas the music of
today is present and
gesticulated. In the
opening section the past
and the present are
clearly separated, but
during the piece, this
balance is lifted, as the
music of the past
(trumpet signals,
Sicilian melodicity,
romantic Pathos,
strawinskian
neo-classicism) in a
dynamic and often
dramatic surrealistic
play with minimalism and
modernism oftoday is
unravelled.
