March 28, 2018This work
(A Breath of the
Untimely) was first
written for solo Flute
and dedicated to Aurele
Nicolet. Its bears the
subtitle Lament on the
Loss of Musical Thought -
some Madrigals for Solo
Flute or Flute with any
other Instruments. This
serves as a playing
instruction but doubles
at the same time as an
outmoded programme: it
refers back to the
musical origin of the
opening lamenting motif,
a tradition which was
once of its time but is
not of our time - namely
the Lamento genre which
gave the title to the
Chaconne in Purcell's
opera Dido and Aeneas.
Almost simultaneously I
wrote a second version
for Piano (for Piano
one-and-a-half hands),
which already formulates
possible approaches for
the performer, in some
detail, to the indicated,
quasi-canonic version of
the piece in the
programme. The multiple
version Ein Hauch von
Unzeit III realizes a
concrete version of a
formal state which floats
between strict canon and
aleatoric principles:
each of the musicians who
are spread throughout the
hall introduces their own
idiomatic translation of
the flute part. And so
the music exists,
omnipresent, not only
spatially throughout the
hall, but also formally
in a sort of fluctuating
simultaneity. For that
reason, it was my express
wish to any potential
interpreter that they
should construct entirely
their own version of the
piece. A healthy number
of musicians have
responded to my
suggestion - versions of
the piece have now been
made for guitar
(Cornelius Schwehr,
Gunther Schneider),
accordion (Hugo Noth),
double bass (Fernando
Grillo), violin
(Hansheinz Schneeberger),
viola, violoncello, and
double bass (trio basso,
Koln), violoncello
(Michael Bach), trombone
(Andrew Digby) and,
created by myself, a sung
version for voice (to
words by Georg Wilhelm
Friedrich Hegel und Max
Bense), and for viola.The
most important
requirement for the whole
piece is absolute
stillness, which should
as far as possible
emanate from the
performer. The pauses are
occasionally in this
respect the most
important element. These
may, if one can find the
necessary stillness,
become very long.Ein

“[Bach's]
six unaccompanied cello
suites bring together
three voices - two upper
voices and a bass - into
one line. If so, the
Goldberg Variations,
which have the same
structure, might also be
reproduced for
unaccompanied cello. This
sudden idea led me to the
arrangement of the piece.
Of course, it is
impossible to reproduce
every single note, but I
aimed to arrange it in a
way that all the notes
would sound in our mind.
When combining the three
lines into one, the most
crucial consideration
was, 'What would Bach
do?' I carefully read
materials and scores,
repeatedly listened to
recordings, performed my
arrangement in concerts,
and revised it over and
over. That time was not
painful, but pure joy,
and it was a time to
immerse myself in 'being
Bach.' It is no
exaggeration to say that
it was more a time of
recreation rather than
arrangement. The
articulations and slurs
are fundamentally based
on the facsimile of the
first edition (the
edition by Anne Fuzeau
Productions) that Bach
himself owned. It is a
highly credible edition
with corrections in red
written by Bach.”

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?
