From the very start of the composing process, the work started to sound Japanese in my mind's ear. I could not find a specific reason for this, but perhaps the idea came from the sound marimba, which for me easily reminds Far Eastern colours. Be it as it may, the work was planned to be a playful race or contest of the soloistic qualities of both the cello and the marimba. This race would show the instruments as equal partners. The work takes the duo through different textural landscapes and dares the instrumentalists to virtuoso playing and even improvisation. A large, 5.5-octave marimba supports the low register of the cello. Though the work is virtuoso, even wild, there is a place for more tranquil, contemplative moments. I fell that Zen and the peacefulness of a Japanese garden are present in this work. (Esa Pietila).

A very interesting poetic perspective is explored in this anthem that considers the silence, shadows and mystery of faith, reminding us that truth is sometimes revealed in moments of quiet contemplation and in times of seeking. The American folk hymn Jesus, My Song in the Night clarifies the Source of our answers, and arching melodic gestures with lush harmonies infuse this piece with a theatrical sweep that really connects.

Schumann's horn sonatas were composed in 1936/37. Considering the slim repertoire offered horn players from this period, it is more than surprising that these two masterpieces could have slumbered for so long. Both sonatas are similar in structure, with op. 118 being one Schumann's few three-movement sonatas. The first movements of the pieces sparkle with melancholically lyrical melodies, whereas passages strongly marked rhythmically, variously shape the two outer movements. Virtuoso moments can be found, respectively, in the final movements, bringing the works to a brilliant close. The horn parts predominantly range within the full, sonorous middle register, where occasional outbursts up to the notated a flat'' are also not lacking. The clever handling of the balance of sounds, the possibilities on the early valve horn as well as the inner interweaving of themes differentiating horn and piano make the sonatas an exceedingly vivid testimony to Schumann's mature compositional art.

Schumann's horn sonatas are a crucial enhancement to each horn player's repertoire. The first edition of a forgotten treasure.

Pleasant Hill takes its inspiration from pleasant relaxing moments snatched on top of a sunny hill. It takes the form of a traditional march with the composer leading us over the hill with a bass solo and a melodious trio. The march comes to a close leaving everybody reeling with a fascinating sense of majesty.

In der kurzen aber bezaubernden Einleitung diese Straßenmarsches ist der Charakter des Stückes bereits vollständig getroffen. Die Eingebung dazu entstand aus dem Gedanken an einen wohltuend entspannten Aufenthalt auf einem sonnigen Hügel. Harm Evers verwendete eine traditionelle Marschform, um uns über den Hügel zu führen, in der ein wohlklingendes Basssolo und ein melodisches Trio natürlich nicht fehlen durften. Der Faszination durch den feierlichen Schluss wird sich kaum jemand entziehen können.

Il grande larice rosso; Piccole vite; Requiem per un bosco

Never before have I felt the urgency within myself to communicate with my instrument something which goes beyond just the notes, a desire to embrace with music parts of the world which I see as being so neglected and abandoned, as if man were no longer able to see beyond the narrow confines of his home and work spaces. The environment which surrounds us, free and pure, seems to bow more and more to the base instincts of abuse which man brings into play... the destruction of centuries-old forests and glaciers, the construction of harmful and disturbing, useless and polluting elements... and I wonder what we can do, what I, as a musician, can do, at least to show my disapproval of these situations. I have no straight answer but I know that writing the music I love to play, often born in natural and wild environments can help to dream of, or imagine a present time which is more on a human scale, thanks to the strong evocative power which music possesses and emanates.
This is the meaning of these compositions, dedicated to a tree, a 700-year-old specimen of the Stura Valley, Lu Merze Gros (The Big Larch), to the small beings which inhabit it, in the bark, among its foliage, in the surrounding soil and to my sense of frustration at seeing a forest of fir trees razed to the ground to allow the construction of a bobsleigh run.
This action of mine has been useless and nostalgic perhaps, but it has given me intense moments of emotion in the writing and moves me enormously during its performance.
