Nachtmusik [ohne eine aufdringliche Nachtstimmung] comes as a continuation from the piece FESTMUSIK [mit Japanischem geist und Deutschem akzent]. A kind of ironic occasional music. The piece is written at nighttime between November and January 2010-2011. A winter with a lot of silence coming from the dense snow. The tonality is a principal element of the work, especially the G minor chord. The piece is a kind of “sturm und drang” like Mozart’s symphony no. 40. the piece was premiered by Curious Chamber Players in Stockholm 2011.
