Night Music The clarinet in Clifford Odets's comedy Night Music is directly involved in the stage plot: it is played by the main character and characterizes his moods and actions. The composer Hanns Eisler's estate contains several clarinet solos coming from the play's context; the most challenging of these is the Moment Musical (called that only later), evidently deleted by the composer in favor of alternatives that were easier to play. Two such alternatives are reproduced in the appendix to this first edition. All three works are suitable for pedagogical practice as well as for concert performance, thanks to their sometimes brilliant, sometimes pensive musicality, together with their exemplary musical quality.

Louis Spohr's technically, extremely demanding concertos have long been part of clarinetists' standard repertoire. Like the first clarinet concerto, this second concerto was composed for the clarinetist Johann Hermstedt, probably in the spring of 1810. Critics praised the concerto at its premiere, stating that it was undeniably one of the most accomplished works of art of its kind. Emphasized was also the great and brilliant treatment of the solo instrument, combined with a very original orchestra accompaniment, where every part, even the timpani, is obbligato. The concerto was even then a great success with the audience. For publication, Spohr supplemented the solo part with various ossia passages as simplifying alternatives. These can of course be found in the score as well as in the piano reduction presented in Ullrich Scheideler's new critical Urtext edition in collaboration with G. Henle Verlag, now for the first time in a reliable edition.

The piece is about observing the most diverse anxiety states in extreme degrees of emotional intensity, from slight distress up to acute panic attacks. What interests me here is not merely the musical realization of these phenomena, but grasping the energetic nature of those psycho-physical processes, emotions, reflexes, and proceedings. To this end, I'm seeking, at the clarinet myself, for an intimate sound world where expanded styles of playing in a flexible and permanently moving context appear. A very intensive music of the nerves, with a broad palette of psycho-physical emotions that, found in myself and my surroundings, are made audible. The title Psychogramm II has (as always) a subtitle: rettegos (fearful). In the order of increasingly emotional anxiety words, this stands for the highest level and means very great, profound anxiety, though in a grammatical form not in fact devitalizing the serious idea, but mitigating it a bit, not entirely without humor and somewhat childishly.

Louis Spohr's First Clarinet Concerto was written in winter 1808/09, at a time when the clarinet had just established itself as an orchestral and solo instrument. The concertos of Spohr and Weber which we know today and which date from these pioneer days around 1810 are due to the in-depth collaboration between composer and performer. Spohr wrote his technically very demanding clarinet concertos for the virtuoso Johann Simon Hermstedt. After the first successful performances, the composer decided to simplify the solo part for the printed edition.The Breitkopf Urtext edition is based on the autograph of the score and the first printing of the parts, which frequently differ from it. In the solo part, we have kept the easier variants along with the original version.From the early years of the clarinet concerto.

Die Introduktion hat experimentellen Charakter in der Anwendung neuer Klarinettentechniken. Sie ist in ihrer 4-teiligen Form quasi eine Vorausnahme des folgenden Rondos, das inspiriert ist von einem haydnschen Fugato. Die lyrisch meditative Elegie steht im Kontrast zu Introduktion und Rondo sowie zum raschen Schlusssatz Rhythmen mit seinen haufig wechselnden Metren.

In spite of his more than 200 works, Andreas Spath remains a minor figure in Romantic music. But this is of little concern to today’s clarinetists, who can now enjoy his idiomatic "Variations on a Theme by Mozart" op. 104. Just as Beethoven before him and many other composers of his own time and later, Spath chooses the duet "Bei Mannern, welche Liebe fuhlen," a popular theme from the then still very successful Magic Flute, and leads it knowledgeably through all of the clarinet’s registers. The new edition is based on the first print, published during Spath’s lifetime.

Die farblichen und spieltechnischen Moglichkeiten des Fagotts sind zwar vielfaltig, aber doch eher innerhalb eines schmalen Rahmens wirksam. Ich denke, das Fagott ist ein ,,strenges Instrument. Dementsprechend ist mein Stuck primar aus struktureller Kombinatorik heraus entwickelt. Instrumentalmoglichkeiten behalten den asketischen Charakter von strukturellen Rollen und entfalten sich in polyphoner Vielschichtigkeit, oft bis zu vier Stimmen, die hoquetusartig ineinandergeschoben sind. Die formale Entfaltung nutzt Erinnerung als Vergleichskraft zwischen musikalischen Gestalten bis zur verbluffenden Wiederholungswirkung nicht-zusammenhangenden Charakters.
