Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and his theory on how colors impacted mental states was the inspiration for this piece. He was far more gifted with prose than I, so I’ll him explain further:

We shall not be surprised to find that [colours’] effects are at all times decided and significant, and that they are immediately associated with the emotions of the mind.

Colour, considered as an element of art, may be made subservient to the highest aesthetical needs.

General impressions produced by single colours cannot be changed[.] They act specifically and must produce definite, specific states in the living organ. Experience teaches us that particular colours excite particular states of feeling.

Goethe goes on to detail these notions in an elaborate, deeply imaginative treatise. Sadly for him, this work was coming out just as the science of optics had begun to give the world an empirical understanding of color, leaving Goethe’s romantic ideas in the margins.

But it is those ideas that I find intriguing from a poetic viewpoint, and, in this composition, I shed musical light unto his dramatic descriptions of several different colors.

“Yellow-Red� is described as “primordial, impetuous, robust,� to the point of eliciting “extreme excitement� which disturbs and enrages even animals!

“Yellow� is portrayed as that being nearest to natural light. It is of “utmost purity and beauty[….] Serene, gay, softly exciting.�

The color “Red-Blue� we are told is “something lively without gladness.�

“Blue� is steeped in darkness, a “contradiction between excitement and repose.� It gives one the “impression of cold.� and brings to mind melancholy.

SKU: A0.1163321

Composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Arranged by Ray Thompson. Classical. 25 pages. RayThompsonMusic #763642. Published by RayThompsonMusic (A0.1163321).

Arranged standard wind quintet
Includes natural Horn in C basso

The Six Viennese Sonatinas were not originally composed by Mozart for the piano. They are a contemporary arrangement of movements from  the Five Wind Divertimentos for 3 basset horns, K. 439b which Mozart wrote in 1783.

The Divertimentos are notable for their conciseness of form and their melodic richness. Each divertimento has 5 mvts
They therefore make an excellent introduction to Mozart's piano music, even though they are not completely typical of Mozart's piano writing. We do not know for certain who made the arrangement, but Alexander Weinmann has shown that it was probably Ferdinand Kauer. The order of movements is not the same as in the original; moreover, some of the Trios have been exchanged and recapitulations have been shortened in some instances.

Thry are in varying keys, unlike the original divertimenti, so my arrangements reflect thus.

This is my arrangement for wind quintet of No.6 in C major.

The original 3 parts have been reallocated around the quintet, with some octave and harmony additions.
I have added an original natural horn part for a more authentic Mozart sound.

Duration: approx 6:00 Standing on the bank of the River Pant is inspired by memories of home and childhood. Hoping for serenity, the horn disturbs itself throughout the piece. The River Pant rises in northwest Essex, in England, and flows through Great Sampford, the village in which the composer grew up. The premiere of this piece was given by Greg Hillis on October 11, 2015 at a Cleveland Composers Guild concert at Drinko Recital Hall, Cleveland State University. Joseph Hollings (ASCAP) is a composer, arranger and music educator, and has taught music to students of all levels for over twenty five years. His arrangements have been performed internationally, including in London's West End, and have been recorded by the Onyx Brass Quintet and members of the Cleveland Orchestra.
