Part VII-XI. Par EGGERT MORITZ. ‘Hämmerklavier’ is a full-length cyclical work. The composer tries casting off the straight-jacket of hide-bound musical traditions, sending the listener on a voyage of discovery and liberation. The ‘Hämmer’ of the title refers not to the mechanical action of the pianoforte nor to Beethoven’s ‘Hammerklaviersonata’ but to the mental approach required of the performer who doesn’t just simply depress the keys of the piano but needs to be a true ‘performance artist’. The composer has recorded the entire cycle for WERGO (WER 6611-2)./ Répertoire / Piano

for trumpet and organ. Par HENZE HANS WERNER. “Requiem, 9 sacred concertos for piano solo, trumpet and large chamber orchestra” is the title of the original work of which Henze said: “These nine instrumental pieces speak of the fears and needs of mankind today; of sickness and death, of love and loneliness.” Three movements of this extremely demanding and complex work - Rex tremendae, Lacrimosa and Sanctus - have here been skilfully arranged for the organ by the composer Moritz Eggert. This arrangement, which is now often played in churches, places great demands upon the musicians who perform it – but they can always be sure of producing a deep impact with these three Requiem movements. A version for trumpet and piano (ED 8548) is currently in production./ Recueil / Trompette en Do / C et Orgue
