About

Sonic eclipse is written for solo trumpet, solo horn and ensemble and is divided into three parts, featuring the trumpet in “celestial object I”, the horn in “celestial object II” and both instruments which then integrate into the ensemble, in the last part “occultation”.

A twilight’s song is based on a poem by E E Cummings.

She-cholat ahavah ani is written for mixed chorus a capella. For Matthias Pintscher, the shir ha shirim (song of songs) is “a supremely condensed compendium of nearly boundless emotional states. All its sections give the impression of having neither beginning, nor end, nor middle, simply being modes of expression that circle one another.” It is from the fifth song that Pintscher took the text for his a cappella piece. The words “she-cholat ahavah ani” translate as “how lovesick am I”, and for the composer this is a core sentence which sums up the topic of the love song.
