Quintett - Tod und Verklärung
by Matti Heininen
for flute, clarinet, violin, cello and piano
Description
Sävelsin kvinteton Tod und Verklärung opiskellessani Baselin musiikkiakatemiassa. Kyseessä ei ole ensimmäinen soitinmusiikkiteos, jossa olen käyttänyt mikroaskelia, mutta teoksen säveltämistä edelsi intensiivinen ja laaja perehtyminen mikrotonaalisuuteen säveltäjä Georg Friedrich Haasin johdolla.
Teos on vuoden 2022 loppuun mennessä esitetty neljän eri ensemblen toimesta. Viides esitys on tiedossa keväälle 2023, jälleen uuden ensemblen toimesta.
Teoksen kantaesitti Uusinta vuonna 2011 Helsingissä, YLE:n radioimassa Klang-sarjan konsertissa. 2014 Ensemble Mimitabu esitti teoksen Malmössä UNM-festivaalilla, ja 2020 teos valittiin ECSA:n (The European Composer and Songwriter Alliance) järjestämään ECCO-konserttiin Brysseliin, jossa sen esitti Ensemble Fractales. Turku Ensemble ja ystävät esitti teoksen sävellyskonsertissani Turku Undertakings, Turun Sibelius-museossa 2021.
Nimestään huolimatta teoksella ei ole mitään tekemistä Richard Straussin musiikin kanssa.
