Upcoming projects
Currently I am putting the final touches to works I was able to pursue more extensively due to the pandemic:
„I am sorry I ever took it. (the rock)“ – Conscience Letters from the Petrified Forrest for Baritone (Thomas Bonni) and Piano (Christoph Schnackertz) will be the first of a group of cycles called „Conscience Pile“.
„thirty miles from nowhere“ for singer alone.
Due to the pandemic all premieres and concerts slated have been cancelled, some are delayed:
THE SILENT CITY (finished), commissioned by Musikpodium Stuttgart for Kammerchor Stuttgart directed by Frieder Bernius (cappella work for 24 part chorus and overtone soloist Anna-Maria Hefele), was to be performed in Stuttgart, Singapur and New Zealand (World Symposium of Choral Music) in July 2020 but is cancelled as of now.
Commissions
Mariposa (eventually a three-movement-work for chorus a cappella with texts by Homero Aridjis for chamber choir Consono conducted by Harald Jers – first movement premiered in 2019) – world premiere of movement two and three was originally coming up in second half of 2020, but moved to 2021.
New work for brass quintet commissioned by Navus Brass for 2020/2021 seasons.
