The work of
Paul Hindemith is
encyclopedic in nature.
From the outset, he
worked in all musical
genres and devised
several of his musical
ideas and projects not as
individual,
self-contained works but
as work cycles with
different functional
relationships. These
contrasting pieces
complement each other if
experienced as part of
the overall structure.
Hindemith himself not
only wanted a complete
edition of his collected
works but had begun
planning it; at his death
he left a detailed list
of ‚Unpublished
pieces for an eventual
complete
edition‘.The
Complete Works contain
all finished works in all
extant versions, newly
engraved for the edition.
Sketches and fragments
are published in
appendices of the
relevant volume, and are
evaluated in the
Introduction and Critical
Commentary by the
respective volume
editor.Each volume
contains a preface by the
editorial directors and
an introduction by the
volume editor,
delineating the genesis
and performance history
of the work, with
authentic performance
instructions, an
evaluation of extant
recordings by Paul
Hindemith himself and a
Critical Commentary.The
Complete Works of Paul
Hindemith are thus
presented in a critical,
scholarly edition which
is equally appropriate
for study and
performance. Hindemith
researchers will welcome
the numerous first
publications of works by
the composer, and
practical musicians will
appreciate the newly
prepared, philologically
ordered performance
material.

The
concerts and exhibits of
the Cleveland Museum of
Art were an important
formative influence for
me during my student
days. So when the
invitation came to create
a new work celebrating
this institution on its
seventy-fifth
anniversary, I was not
only happy to accept, but
knew immediately that I
wanted to write a piece
that would somehow relate
specifically to the
museum. I decided to make
the work a reflection on
a painting in the
museum's collection:
Zurbaran's The Holy House
of Nazareth. My quartet
is not program music in a
narrative sense, but
rather a kind of
meditation that takes its
tone from this painting's
remarkable integration of
intense affect,
mysterious repose and
secret geometry. Besides
Zurbaran's painting, the
piece is occupied with a
purely musical object of
contemplation: the hymn
tune Picardy, best known
with the text Let All
Mortal Flesh Keep
Silence. This tune
permeates the harmonic
and melodic life of the
quartet, sometimes
appearing in a very
simple, straightforward
fashion, but often hidden
amidst more complex
structures. I was
attracted to the melody
for its musical
qualities, but later
realized that the hymn's
text also resonates with
the mood of the painting;
the words speak of a
reverent awe, of cherubim
with sleepless eye, and
of the mystery of the
Incarnate Word who must
suffer: King of kings,
yet born of Mary...

composer Joachim Raff bid
a brilliant farewell to
Weimar. He had been there
as Franz Liszt's
assistant since 1850 and
had made a name for
himself in the city's art
scene - now he embarked
on new paths. He composed
his second Quartet in A
major, op. 90, already in
1857 in Wiesbaden, the
spa town that was to
become his home for 21
years. The two quartets
are unequivocal works:
orchestrally-conceived,
full of energetic vigor,
and at times
uncompromisingly modern.
They confidently continue
the Beethoven tradition
and attest at the same
time to Raff's intensive
confrontation with
Richard Wagner's music
during the Weimar years.
In his chamber music, the
composer wanted to
achieve progress in an
inherently historical way
and to ground the
individual substance in
existing forms, as he
told the Viennese
violinist Josef
Hellmesberger, who
launched opus 77. The
quartets, first published
in 1860/62, found
illustrious interpreters,
among them, the Muller
brothers' renowned
ensemble, to which opus
90 was also dedicated,

Staeliana was
commissioned by the
Fundacio Caixa de
Catalunya in 2007 for the
inauguration of an
exposition of the work of
Nicolas Staël at La
Pedrera, Barcelona. In
this work I wanted to
compose homage to a
painter who knew how to
join together in his
unique works both the
traditions of the past
along with the vanguard
of his time. Beginning
with figurative works
which lead toward
abstraction, his body of
work can be defined as a
contrast between these
two concepts which, with
extreme simplicity,
define his entire
artistic conception.
Staeliana, an expressive
chorale, at times both
luminous and dramatic,
dissolves into the most
minimal expression. From
the first joining
together of the voices it
concludes with utter
simplicity of expression.
The suicide of the artist
in 1955 is representative
of the dissolution of his
existence as well as of
his artistic works. This
contrast between
figurative and
abstraction is reflected
in the music by the
contrast between
stability and tension. I
believe that this duality
may be found both in his
work and in his life,
always oscillating
between living a creative
life or opting for death,
which may be seen as a
fusion in nothingness
with the plenitude of
purest simplicity.
