2000 Notes (MAMLOK URSULA)

bearbeitet für 3 Schlagzeuger von Yu Fujiwara (2016). Par MAMLOK URSULA. Ursula Mamlock, who emigrated from Germany in 1939, composed 2000 Notes, her most important work for piano solo, in New York. Here she studied and taught composition until she returned to her native city of Berlin in 2006. In 2015 Yu Fujiwara arranged 2000 Notes for three percussionists (xylophone, glockenspiel, vibraphone, and marimbaphone). Ursula Mamlok was unable to attend the world premiere in Basel in January 2016 but heard a performance in Villingen-Schwenningen on 12 April and, delighted with the new tone colours, authorized this arrangement. This is the last composition prior to her death in May 2016 which could be newly entered in hercatalogue of works as an arrangement. Rich in contrast, this short, concise piece is typical of her style and a valuable addition to the canon of percussion works./ Répertoire / Xylophone, Carillon, Vibraphone et Marimba
