Schadl #5206103. Published by Thomas R. Schadl (A0.912503). Fantasia On TRSCH For String Orchestra is based on the composer’s initials (B flat, D, E flat, C B -but composed using E, G# A F# F), and explores various contrapuntal techniques that involve rhythmic diminution and augmentation, and inversion and retrograde motions. Further, the work shows how a thematic material varies in regard to articulation and phrasing; in other words, the main theme does not always use the same articulation throughout the piece. The tempo indications are suggestions and gives the performers and listeners an impression of energy building up at the beginning and slowing toward the end of the work. Fantasia On TRSCH For String Orchestra is suitable for both recital and educational purposes.
