Das 1992/93 komponierte Werk bezieht sich auf Segmente I fur sieben Klangzentren (1992), wobei das Klangmaterial auf drei Instrumente reduziert wurde. Diese sind besonders unter dem Aspekt der Klangfarbenanderungen innerhalb von geschlossenen harmonischen Feldern verwendet. Die Zeitgestaltung der Makroform (die Zeitproportionen der Abschnitte) sowie des Mikrobereichs (Schwebungen, Vibrato, Tremolo, enharmonische Wechsel, Flatterzunge, Doppelzunge usw.) erfolgt nach dem Prinzip von maximaler Aperiodizitat. Es soll der Horeindruck einer standig fluktuierenden unfixierbaren Klangwandlung erweckt werden.(Adriana Holszky)CD:Trio AkkobassoCD Antes Edition BM 319071World premiere: Sapporo, May 27, 1993.

Die Komposition besteht aus sechs miteinander verbundenen Segmenten (...) Die Segmente 1 und 3 beziehen sich deutlich auf den Road Trip, wahrend Segment 6 ein Hybrid ist. Beginnend in einer Halbtraumwelt greift das Stuck hier allmahlich auf die Klarheit des am Anfang der Komposition verwendeten musikalischen Materials zuruck. (Gernot Wolfgang)1. Smooth Sailing - 2.

In his work Palindrome for piano (2000), Kirmo Lintinen has chosen a predetermined form: perfectly mirrored symmetry, and he makes it work wonderfully! Lintinen is not interested in hidden structures and working with minutiae, but rather lets the palindromic qualities of the palindrome be clearly visible and audible. Rather than using abstract tonerows, Lintinen mirrors a three-tiered musical characteristics, adding and then letting go suspension: Cantabile semplice/Giocoso/Fuocoso e flessibile - Fuocoso e flessibile/Giocoso/Cantab ile semplice. The duration of the work, 180 seconds, is divided into six segments: 45sec:30sec:15sec:15sec:3 0sec:45sec (3:2:1:1:2:3). The shorter the segment, the more raucuous the material.

With lovely harmonies and surprising melodic and mood changes, this piece will be perfect for festivals and to bring any concert to a rousing close. From the contemplative beginning into a mysterious interlude, then a driving melody that moves from 4/4, this piece transitions into an accented segment in C major, a playful pizzicato section, and then closes with the original melody set in 9/8, creating a feeling of coming home. With such a wide variety of settings in one piece, teaching opportunities abound.

On Cloud Nine is an impressive and energetic composition that will fit in just about any part of your concert program. The flashy opening segment features woodwind flourishes with powerful brass interjections. Following a slow and beautiful lyric setting of the theme featuring solos on horn and flute, the fast tempo returns and powers the piece to an exciting climax. With accessible ranges and modest technical demands, this work sounds harder than it really is. Dur. 3:00.

UPC: 680160601691. Text: Nelly Sachs. Nelly Sachs. Text: Five Poems of Nelly Sachs, Translation from German of Nos. I, III and IV by Ruth and Matthew Mead, of No. II by Michael Roloff and No. V by Michael Hamburger.
O The Chimneys is a setting of five poems by Nelly Sachs, the great German-Jewish 1966 Nobel Prize co-winner in literature, whose writing concerned itself almost entirely with the subject of the holocaust. Composed in 1969, the work was my own personal way of saying, through my own art, do not forget. Shockingly, these words have as much relevance today as they did when the work was written. Today we find ourselves having to say do not forget, do not distort, do not deny it ever happened. I selected the five poems from Sachs' O The Chimneys collection, retaining its grimly evocative title even though I did not include the actual poem by that name. In scoring the work for female voice, flute, clarinet/bass clarinet, cello, piano and percussion, I aimed to give myself the broadest possible palette of instrumental colors while using the smallest number of participants. Yet as I was planning the final moments of my cycle, I felt that instrumental sound alone would not suffice to express the horror. An electronic tape segment was added to the work's final climax. The first two poems (A Dead Child Speaks and Already Embraced by the Arm of Heavenly Solace), both depicting the tearing of a child away from his mother, are treated essentially as one unit, with the first acting as an introduction to the second. These two, and the cycle's apocalyptic fifth poem (Hell is Naked from Glowing Enigmas II), act as the two weighty pillar points, so to speak, surrounding the more introspective two middle poems (Fleeing and Someone Comes). To maximize dramatic differentiation within the constraints of a relentlessly tragic subject matter, I used range as a means to delineate contrast, by dividing the sounds available to me into low and dark (mvt. III) vs. high and, at times, eerily bright (mvt. IV) colors. Thus the two middle poems are intended to balance the frenzied madness of which the work's outer parts are made. The work received its first performance in New York at the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Grace Rainey Auditorium on January 19, 1970. --Shulamit Ran.

This imaginative setting of Jingle Bells takes listeners on a Christmas journey around the world by presenting the song in the musical styles of several countries -- Mexico, Japan, Austria, Scotland and the good ol' U.S.A. Using the optional narration adds to the overall appeal, and the optional percussion instruments (jingle bells, castanets, suspended cymbal, maracas, tambourine, snare drum, bass drum) greatly enhance the nationalistic flavor of each segment. Duration 4:00 (w/narrator).
