The piece, which is unique in its selection of performing forces, was written for bass trombone and wind quintet in 1989 at the request of Sándor Balogh, bass trombonist at the Orchestra of the Hungarian Broadcast. The premiére of the work was given by the trombonist Balogh and the Woodwind Quintet of the Hungarian Broadcast. In this composition just as elsewhere Frigyes Hidas exploits the characteristics of the woodwind instruments thoroughly.

Das Sextett knüpft in seiner hochromantischen Tonfülle, in seiner dramatischen wie gesanglichen streicherischen Noblesse an die Sextette von Brahms und Dvorak an, jedoch unverwechselbar in eigener Sprache.

Bertold Hummel worked on his Adagietto for many years. Originally conceived as an Elegy for Strings in 1965, it was transformed into an Adagietto for String Sextet in 1978 and published for the first time in 1993. Hummel undertook a further arrangement of the composition in 1999 and participated with musical friends in its first performance. In one of the scores, the title is supplemented by the term “sacrale”, an indication of the religious background of this composition. In a time of increasing secularisation, the creative and no doubt also the reproducing artist have the task of pointing out to their contemporaries the transcendental, the inexplicable and the unprovable. The language of music - most effective perhaps in reaching across world frontiers - has an especially important role in this. Representations of suffering and horror alone cannot be the inherent constituent of a work of art. A reference to comfort and hope is indispensable. Furthermore, life, nature, and, for the believer, knowledge of God give cause enough for praise and thanks.” This is how my father once formulated his artistic conception. A favourite adopted term of his, “musikalische Klangrede” [musical speech), appears to me to be particularly well implemented in the Adagietto.

Volume 31 contains, among other works, the Piano Quartet, which was enthusiastically received by the critics in Rheinberger's time: The themes are noble, with significant content, the motivic development is rich and interesting, above all free from anything resembling a mould ... and such a healthy musical wind blows through the entire work that I believe I am not mistaken if I forsee for this work a great success. This is how a contemporary critic reviewed the work. Indeed, op. 38 proceeded to become the most successful of Rheinberger's chamber music works during his lifetime. The Sextet op. 191b is an effective arrangement of his Piano Trio No. 4 op. 191, for flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, horn and piano. All works are also available in separate editions.

'A Family Likeness' was written for The Society of Recorder Players in the UK and was a great success at its premiere in 2008. The music is characteristically that of Gavin Bryars and would be an ideal introduction to his unique sound world of slow moving pure harmonies and melodic ostinati that evoke expansive landscapes. This significant addition to modern recorder repertoire is a fantastic concert piece which is both accessible and musically rewarding, it can be performed by either six individual players or a larger group with multiple players per part.
