Vom wissenden Vergessen (Knowingly Forgetting) for Flute and Percussion

From the Publisher

This is actually a solo piece for flute. The flute embodies the individual with its many processes of change. The percussion part, here metal instruments only, is intended as a kind of complex resonance room for the flute part. The multitude of metallic sounds seem to be incited by the sound of the flute until it vanishes entirely. As the percussion instruments die away the flute emerges again in transmuted form. (Gerhard Müller-Hornbach) Gerhard Müller-Hornbach is composer and musical leader of the Mutare Ensemble Frankfuret. His composition studies with Hans Ulrich Engelmann were supplemented by courses with Isang Yun, Brian Ferneyhough, Gerard Grisey, Cristobal Halffter and Helmut Lachenmann. Since 1981 he is professor for theory of music and composition at the Hochschule for Music and Performing Arts in Frankfurt.
