The Hindemith pupil Harald Genzmer (1909–2007) worked with virtually all music genres and composed works for many, even unusual instruments (such as the trautonium). He also wrote compositions for the piano, of course, and in 1938 published a major work, Sonata No. 1. For Richards Laugs who had worked in Mannheim since 1945, first as musical director at the National Theatre, then as director of the local music academy, he wrote '3 Tänze' for piano the autograph of which was discovered among the effects of Laugs' widow only recently. These very enjoyable-to-play and melodious miniatures are published for the first time here.

Les “3 Danses� pour piano de Harald Genzmer (1909-2007), élève de Hindemith, ont été écrites pour Richard Laugs. La partition autographe a réapparu dernièrement dans la succession de sa veuve. Ces trois délicieuses miniatures sont publiées ici pour la première fois.

Harald Genzmer (1909-2007) is one of the most important German composers of the 20th century and contributed major works to the church and organ music repertoire. The present solo cantata after the famous 'Song of Brother Sun' by Francis of Assisi ('Most high, all-powerful, all good, Lord!') continues the great tradition of the solo cantata by Schütz, Telemann or Bach, with its theme being the praise of God as creator and protector of Earth. The vocal part is entirely in the service of a text that is interpreted with sensitive musical means. The rewarding organ part contains several solo passages. A valuable addition to the repertoire for religious concerts - marking the 100th birthday of Harald Genzmer on 07.02.2009.

The wide-ranging oeuvre of Harald Genzmer (1909-2007) is completed by a large number of small-scale chamber music works. In the last stage of his creative life, the flute played a major role. It was in that period that he composed Capriccio notturno for flute or treble recorder and piano, which goes back to his reading Friedrich Nietzsche's Thus Spake Zarathustra whom Genzmer admired very much. Genzmer begins his work with Nachtlied from the second part of Nietzsche's work, using it as a motto. The flute part of Capriccio notturno lies comfortably on the flute, using the possibilities of the treble recorder. In both cases, as in the piano part as well, the demanding musical context requires experienced performers: a work for both the concert stage and upper school classes or youth competitions.

Harald Genzmer (1909-2007) schrieb in seinen letzten Lebensjahren mehrere geistliche Solokantaten und leistete damit wichtige musikalische Beiträge für die Liturgie und das geistliche Konzert. Die Kantate Sei nur stille in Gott, meine Seele hat Genzmer in seinem Autograph ausdrücklich als Geistliches Konzert bezeichnet und sich damit in die Tradition von Heinrich Schütz gestellt. Das vierteilige Werk verwendet verschieden Psalmtexte und kann als Gesamtwerk, aber auch in Abschnitten aufgeführt werden. Ausgedehnte Vor- und Zwischenspiele der Orgel setzt er meisterhaft zur Ausdeutung der Texte ein. Verwendet werden die Psalmtexte Sei nur stille, meine Seele, in Gott (Psalm 62, 6-9), Gott, sei mir gnädig (Psalm 51, 3, 12-13), Herr, Gott, du bist unsere Zuflucht (Psalm 90, 1-2,4-6) und Herr, unser Herrscher (Psalm 8, 1, 4-5).

German.

Harald Genzmer (1909-2007) schrieb in seinen letzten Lebensjahren mehrere geistliche Solokantaten und leistete damit wichtige musikalische Beiträge für die Liturgie und das geistliche Konzert. Die beiden geistlichen Solokantaten Lobet den Herren, alle Völker (Psalm 117) und Singet dem Herrn ein neues Lied (Psalm 136) verwenden zwei beliebte Psalmtexte, die im Laufe der Musikgeschichte häufig Grundlage von Kantaten und Motetten waren. Genzmer vertont die Texte in der ihm eigenen, instrumentengerechten Art, deutet den Inhalt sensibel und klangmalerisch aus und wählt eine originelle Besetzung mit Orgel und obligater Posaune (oder Violoncello). Durch ausgedehnte Vor- und Zwischenspiele für die Orgel und das Melodieinstrument haben die Kantaten einen ausgesprochen konzertanten Charakter.

Harald Genzmer composed this Flute Sonata at the suggestion of Dr Peter Hanser-Strecker, Chairman of Schott Music. On 7 November 1999 Genzmer sent it to SMI with the words: I enclose an entirely new sonata for the flute. I have been careful to avoid the problematic areas for the flute: there are no harmonics, no very high or low notes, and so on. I have really enjoyed working on it, and make no secret of the fact that I am very fond of the piece. A rewarding piece for playing in concerts and competitions; well suited to the instrument and imaginatively composed.

Harald Genzmer’s composition Divertimento di danza for string orchestra clearly continues the baroque form of the divertimento. This light music - in the truest sense of the word - consisted of a sequence of loose movements with free forms and dance movements alternat-ing in varied succession. The divertimento comprised five to six movements. Genzmer kept to all these facts but he brought new life into the old forms. Though he did not compose in the old style, he respected certain rules of the traditional form.

Funeral music plays an important role in music history for the articulation of grief and sorrow is an essential task of music. The important German organ composer Harald Genzmer (born in 1909) wrote his 'Musik der Trauer' in 2001, deeply affected by the death of his wife. The music is full of emotion and sentiment, expressing grief, sorrow, desperation, but also fierce rebellion against the inescapability of fate. At the end, the motif 'Christ ist erstanden' can be heard as an expression of Christian hope.

Harald Genzmer (1909–2007) did a lot for young up-and-coming musicians, and there certainly is many a string instrument player who remembers school orchestra times in which the 'Sinfonietta' was programmed. But the probably most prominent Hindemith pupil wrote much more valuable educational music: In the years 1960 to 1996 he created '8 Little Studies for String Orchestra' which are brilliant miniatures of medium difficulty dealing with special musical issues, such as dotted rhythm or change of time. The pieces can either be played separately or be formed into little suites. They are perfect for the work in school, hobby and amateur orchestras. And in spite of all educational intentions: This is enjoyable music which is fun to play!

The 'Divertimento giocoso' by Harald Genzmer created in 1960 is scored for two woodwind instruments (flutes, recorders or transverse flute and oboe) as solo instruments opposed to the string orchestra. The composer, whose work suits the amateur music-making very much in many respects, succeeded in creating a tonal arrangement that is individual in style. In the first movement, this rhythmically very lively, thematically clearly visible and harmonically interesting though not revolutionary work presents the strings and the solo instruments often entering canonically with an easily remembered -seventh motif; in the second movement, it leads a melody dying away a long time to a dynamic climax, adds harmonic cross relations to a scherzo moving in dance style and closes with a lively vivace movement. (Das Liebhaber-orchester).

Harald Genzmer has done a great deal for the promotion of young musical talent, and no doubt many a string instrument player can recall from their school orchestra days when his Sinfonietta was on the programme. But this highly prominent Hindemith pupil has written yet more of this educational music: all in all 3 sinfoniettas, in addition to collections of easy movements such as '14 Easy Pieces for String Orchestra' from 2002 which is also suitable for a Streicherschule. The individual movements involve specific styles and demands: cantabile playing, unusual and changing time signatures, bowing, pizzicato, intonation, scale playing, and so forth. The use of a double-bass is ad libitum. The pieces can be played separately or as little suites and are ideal for school and amateur orchestras; and regardless of it's educational nature, this music is lively and fun to play!
