Das musikalische Gegensatzpaar Freude und Trauer hat seine Verbindung durch die Verwendung der beiden Intervalle Sekunde und Septe. Damals realisierte ich musikalische Einfälle gerne zusammen mit einer strukturellen Aufgabe und untersuchte die Wirkung von Aufwärts- oder Abwärtsbewegungen in der Musik. Der Teil Trauer ist zudem noch mit einer besonderen Methode komponiert: ich entwickelte kurze Melodien, deren Töne gleichzeitig Harmonieträger sein konnten.“ (Barbara Heller).

For Elke Mascha Blankenburg. Composed by Barbara Heller. This edition: Sheet music. Clarinet Library. Dieser Orgelchoral mit Soloklarinette folgt in der formalen Anlage einem Jüdischen Totengebet. Dabei steht die Soloklarinette für den Gesang des traditionellen Vorbeters, die Orgel mimt den Nachgesang der Synagogengemeinde. Downloadable. Duration 8 minutes. Schott Music - Digital #Q41692. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q41692).

The formal structure of this organ chorale with solo clarinet follows a Jewish death prayer. The solo clarinet represents the chant of the traditional prayer leader while the organ plays the response of the congregation of the synagogue. The piece ends with a cadenza of the solo clarinet to which an optional organ improvisation can be added. Barbara Heller dedicated this chorale to the memory of Elke Mascha Blankenburg (1943–2013). Talking about her before the first performance, the composer said: ‘She was open-hearted with a really tender soul, very trusting. Her creativity knew no limits; she was also an almost fanatical campaigner for music by women. In the music you will hear now I have attempted to convey some aspects of her personality: charming, loving, obstinate, committed, volatile, tragic, crazy, untamed, tender and anguished.’ The various sections of this chorale may be performed in a correspondingly contrasting manner: searching, hesitant, visionary, focused, volatile, accusatory, hopeful, etc., with use of rubato and powerful contrasts in dynamic and tone quality.

As an adult I occasionally try to remember and or capture child-like experiences-maybe not so much the actual event, but the emotive atmosphere left from impressions long ago embedded in the psyche.Each movement of this work is based on spontaneous and uncalculated musical imagery of dreams and childhood reflections. I have deliberately avoided the professional composer’s bag of developmental tricks and worked for a more free flow of simple melodic ideas: they go wherever they want.Movement IInspired by the feelings I had growing up on Merritt Island Florida with my older sister Barbara. This music was a gift to her on the occasion of her 2004 marriage in Flemington New Jersey. It was originally scored for a brass quartet with which I performed. I have written three other brass quintets, and when I started thinking about this one (my fourth) this seemed like a logical choice for a first movement.Movement IIBased on a tune that came to me in a dream. It is dedicated to my wife Lois (we also married in 2004) and has a formal title of Wake Up To A Melody. I originally scored it for jazz band-more specifically for the excellent Salt Lake Alternative Jazz Orchestra, and it has recently been recorded by that group. I like the simplicity of this melody, and felt it would make a natural second movement for this brass quintet.Movement IIIThe third and most difficult movement is Tangoragrondo. It is literally a rondo with a turn-of-the century (19th-20th) ragtime melody/gallop occupying the A theme followed by a Tango (inspired by trips to Santiago Chile) for the B theme. The return to the rag (A theme) is then followed by a fantasy development (C area) with a return to to the rag (A theme) followed by a coda that recalls material from the first movement. The form is quite simple- ABACA-Coda.The material was originally developed as a movement for my double concerto Letting Midnight Out On Bail written for the Duehlmeier-Gritton piano duo and orchestra. It was recorded by the Warsaw Philharmonic and has been released on CD. A second version for two pianos has also been recorded and released by the Duehlmeier-Gritton piano duo. This orchestration for brass quintet will be the final resting place for this chaotic rondo.

This charming little piece in the classical style will help students develop good phrasing and independence of hands. The melody skips along, accompanied at times by a simple Alberti bass. Familiar scale and chordal patterns help make this piece an excellent introduction to the classical sonatina.
