Titan's Progress, which is Hermann Pallhuber's first work for the British style brass band, contains references to the music of Gustav Mahler. Motifs from Mahler's First Symphony are employed throughout and especially the principal theme of the finale. Pallhuber's music is programmatic and uses the content of the novel and its hero Albano's evolution for its underlying structure. The stylistic variety of the work (including the Chorale, an impudent Landler, a dancing Farandole, and a climactic Fugue) are Mahleresque in their influences. Titan was a novel by the German author Johann Paul Friedrich Richter, who later known as Jean Paul, and was considered the author's main work. At almost 900 pages in length, it tells the story of the transition of its hero, Albano de Cesara, from a passionate youth to a mature man. Jean Paul was one of Gustav Mahler's favorite authors and the latter gave the original five-movement version of his first symphony the subtitle The Titan -- in deference to Jean Paul's novel.

Never before published! Mahler composed the work at the beginning of 1888 in Leipzig. In 1889 it was subsequently premiered as a symphonic poem in Budapest. Now, Universal Edition is justifiably proud to publish this first score of Titan, the early five-movement version of his Symphony No. 1, in connection with the Complete New Critical Edition. Our first edition of Titan contains the history of its genesis, reviews of the performances in Hamburg and Weimar, a discussion of the programmes and the underlying ideas behind the work, colour prints of important sources, and an extensive critical commentary that describes the variants, problematic passages and all editorial interpolations. (-- Universal Edition) The International Gustav Mahler Society is the academic authority on my grandfather's works, and Universal Edition is his trusted publisher. (-- Marina Mahler).

Norbert Schultze: E- oder U-Komponist? Opern- oder Schlagerkomponist?Genau dazwischen, meint er selbst und beschreibt sein Leben, vom Geburtsort Braunschweig 1911 uber Studium in Koln und Munchen bis zum Studentenbrettel Die vier Nachrichter 1931, dem er unter dem Pseudonym Frank Norbert mit Unterbrechungen 4 Jahre lang angehort - zusammen mit Kurd E. Heyne, Bobby Todd und Helmut Kautner. Dazwischen ist er Opernkapellmeister in Heidelberg und Darmstadt, wird dort 1933 von den neuen Machthabern vertrieben, nach dem Erfolg seiner Oper Schwarzer Peter (Hamburg 1936) jedoch verwohnt und privilegiert, darf wahrend des Krieges Filmmusiken komponieren (u.a.

Er berichtet aus sturmisch bewegter Zeit, fuhrt uns offen und ehrlich durch Hohen und Tiefen seines Lebens, ohne sich zu schonen und ohne eigene Fehler zu verschweigen.Ein hochinteressantes Dokument zur Zeitgeschichte, informativ, unterhaltsam und spannend.
