Volcano is a work commissioned by the Municipal Wind Orchestra of Endigen in Germany. The three creative impulses, which provided the basis for this symphonic poem, are inspired by outside sources. They are closely linked with the history of the Orchestra and the region in which it performs. In this region is the Kaiserstuhl, an enormous rock situated on the edge of the Black Forest. Volcano is a stimulating, lyrical, brilliant and festive work.
