Piano Sonata No. 6, Op. 13
[Vienna; New York: Universal-Edition, 1925]

1923

Works  

The Sixth Sonata is probably the finest work in the present set. It takes in a world of references - the bell-like tolling of the opening seems to recall Debussy’s ‘Cathédrale engloutie’ (Préludes I); but Janácek and Schoenberg both vie for attention, all sitting alongside a perceptive use of the B-A-C-H motif. Some of the reiterated block chords (around 6’) even sound like gestures from early Stockhausen electronic music! The performance (Sirodeau) is miraculous. It is here that virtuosity reaches its peak.

Latin meets classic, quintet for flutes
[Frankfurt, Germany : Zimmermann, ZM-34150, 2001]

2001

Works New

The title "Latin meets classic" describes the basic idea behind this quintet: the composer tried to make his favorite Latin American rhythms from the 20th century meet with European rhythms from the baroque and rococo periods. For example, in the first movement a BACH motif 'winds its way' into the tango part, and the second movement is a classical minuet from the Mozart era, which is then recalled towards the end on the third movement (samba). All three movements are based on the same plain chord sequences.

David Hamill (b 1957)

Overture: "The end of summer" from Autumnal Suite, for for oboe, clarinet, cello, synthesiser and drumkit
Autumnal Suite is a set of pieces based on the structure of the baroque suite, but strongly influenced by jazz and blues. The music, written over the period October 2004 to January 2005, aims to conjure up images of autumn. Unlike the conventional baroque suite, the movements are in different keys.

2004-2005

David says, (Overture) "This is the most baroque movement, and is in the form of a French overture. A slow first section in dotted rhythm quotes from J.S. Bach's second orchestral suite (BWV 1067). It's followed by a faster fugato section, which incorporates the B-A-C-H motif. The music moves from baroque to jazz as the summer fades into autumn."

Commissioned by the Scotia Festival of Music for the Tafelmusik Baroque Orchestra grants from the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation and the Nova Scotia Arts Council. Part of the project Spring Equinox.

1998

“… I stopped the quotation of the original a few measures earlier, at a half cadence where the interruption is slightly more intuitive, ending the piece with a short concluding statement of my own. The third fugue is a signature piece based on the B-A-C-H motif. As with the previous two fugues the Bach material is presented by the string orchestra. The woodwinds return starting with a lamenting statement of my own initials, C.H., and moving back to the spirit of the first fugue. They trace the process of the first fugue backwards finding peace and fulfillment in the musical company of a great master and in my personal memories of a great man to whose self-sacrifice I partly owe the fact that I am alive.”

Kleines Harmonisches Labyrinth in C major, BWV 591, for organ
[BGA XXXVIII, S. 225f]

1714

 

Critical Report on BWV 591 alias BWV Anhang 179
NBA KB V/12 p. 186 (Bärenreiter, 2006) p. 186 by Frieder Rempp:
This composition, contained in some of the older Bach manuscript collections (Hauser, Prieger, etc.) and therefore assumed to be by J. S. Bach, was often referred to as “Kleines harmonisches Labyrinth”. In reality its true title is “Fantasia durch alle Tonarten”. The BG did not include it among Bach’s works; however, it was often included in 19th-century printed editions of Bach’s keyboard compositions, for instance, in the Peters Edition of Bach’s organ works.
There is, however, no doubt about its true authorship in that it can be traced back to its source:
Johann David Heinichen’s Der Generalbaß in der Komposition (
Dresden, 1728), Chapter V “About a Musical Circle”, §18, pp. 885-895.
This original printing guarantees Heinichen’s authorship. In all the extant manuscript copies of this work, no essential differences can be detected, differences that might lead anyone to suspect that this might be a reworking, an arrangement or an adaptation of an already existing work.

Improvisation and Toccata, Op. 9, for violin, violoncello & piano (piano trio)
[Hamburg: N. Simrock, 1976]

1954

The Piano Trio, op. 9, from the year 1954, breaks the tradition of the classical-romantic piano trio inasmuch as it rejects the usual formal pattern and combines simply two movements of differing construction but with thematic material derived from one basic tone series. It is distinguished from a twelve-tone work of the Schönberg school by a kind of cell technique, in which small particles are separated out from the complete twelve-tone series and used independently - particles which in their structure of thirds and seconds have a similarity to the BACH motif (German notation for B flat : A : C : B) but contain more combinations of thirds and reveal in the second movement their real origin: the fugue from the Symphony of Psalms by Stravinsky. By constant transformation of the intervals through octave transpositions and inversion, multifarious constellations appear, suitable for flexible formal construction. The opening movement with title "Improvisation" develops within its cyclical setting (in which the series is presented by the violoncello at the beginning and end of the movement) a rhapsody-like succession of arabesques. The second movement, "Toccata", departs from this filigree work and is striking in its use of mighty blocks of sound and strict linearity. Its form, marked particularly by the reprise in fifth transposition of its beginning, is a series of sections, each derived metamorphosis-like from the opening.

Although Ives often revised his work, he was always very sure at any one time of the precise notes that he intended, and I wonder if this transformation of the BACH motif was an intentional sly joke.

Talivaldis Kenins.(1919-2008)

Symphony No. 7

Borrowing was not returned to after these works, except for a re-appearance of the Bach motif at the vocal movements in the Symphony No. 7, at once a matter of more personal involvement due to the texts chosen from his father's poetry, and also of even more assured handling of contrapuntal forms, in this case the passacaglia.

Astral Blue, for orchestra
[Saint Louis, Mo.: MMB Music, 2006]

2006

It is astonishing what this large orchestra, under the direction of Horst Förster, can draw out of the musical score. It begins with an atmospheric harp sound that rubs-off on march-like strings. The B-A-C-H motif is the internal energy that repeatedly gains new strength. Separated violins and violas combine in melodic layers, out of which large blocks are struck. This piece does not become tedious, even when it tries the templates of minimalist music tradition. It is clear, exuberant, booming and is reminiscent of a Jackson Pollock painting.

[Zürich: Universal Edition, 1969]

1955-1956/1969

The Fourth Etude is the most substantial of the four, playing masterfully with aspects of fugal style. Martin writes: ‘the first subject is essentially rhythmical, the second subject [which has already appeared in the Overture] expressive. To prevent the exposition from sounding academic I added an accompaniment which continues until the entry of the third voice, upon which it joins in free contrapuntal play. In the middle part…after a section in close canon, there is a figured chorale. Then the fugue takes over again, mixes the two subjects and leads in a broad conclusion.’ The B-A-C-H motif can be found again in the chromatic middle section. Throughout, Martin’s understanding of the piano’s capabilities ensures that there is no loss of colour or texture when compared to the original string version. In the composer’s own words: ‘may these pieces … bring each listener that very private joy which music can sometimes give.’

String Quartet

In exchange, the structure of the Quartet of strings is presented under the form of a monolith based on a unique reason (B-A-C-H motif), out of which all the themes of the musical speech will appear. Basically this work is an extensive composition study on this motif, processed in many variations, without exhausting its generating potential. The form of the quartet is an interference with the theme with variations and the form of the sonata. Unlike the Sonata for the piano, the quartet is structured on three broad parts.

The Quartet was achieved taking into the development of a complex form that combines ttheme with variations and sonata. Another plan is the treatment of the B-A-C-H motif, the basic structure of the whole musical discourse. All the themes of the quartet are generated by this motif, and the broad developments have as main scope its treatment. From its 24 variations obtained by combining its four sounds during the three parts of the work we notice 17. These are:
1) B-A-C-H, 2) B-A-H-C, 3)B-C-H-A, 4) B-H-C-A, 5) A-B-H-C, 6) A-C-H-B, 7)A-H-C-B, 8) C-A-B-H, 9) C-B-A-H, 10) C-B-H-A, 11) C-H-A-B, 12) C-H-B-A, 13)H-A-B-C, 14) H-B-A-C, 15) H-B-C-A, 16) H-C-A-B, 17) H-A-C-B.
The seventh unused combinations are as follows: 1) B-C-A-H, 2)B-H-A-C, 3) A-B-C-H, 4) A-C-B-H, 5) A-H-B-C, 6) C-A-H-B, 7) H-A-C-B.
