Additional info/contents Antiphonies (Wechselgesänge) ist für zwei Blechbläserquintette geschrieben und obwohl manchmal beide Quintette zusammen als grosses Blechbläserensemble spielen, beruht das Werk hauptsächlich auf antiphonalen Prinzipien. Manchmal bestehen die Sequenzen aus ähnlichen Materialien, die von einer Gruppe zur anderen ströhmen oder die Quintette tauschen kontrastreiche musikalische Phrasen aus.
Für mich bieten die Blechblasinstrumente aussergewöhliche, extreme musikalische Ausdrucksmöglichkeiten - dynamisch wie auch emotional - und ich habe also hier versucht, möglichst viele besonders zur Geltung zu bringen.
Passagen von intensiver Agressivität alternieren mit ruhigen, verinnerlichten oder fast impressionistischen Stimmungen.

Antiphonies is a work for two brass quintets and, although there are occasional sections where the two quintets play together as one large ensemble, for most of the piece they play together in an antiphonal fashion. At times these antiphonal sections feature the same sort of material passed from one group to another while at other times the quintets exchange phrases of a contrasting nature.
I believe that brass instruments have a great capability for expressing extremes in music, both dynamically and emotionally, and so in this work I have tried to show as many sides of brass instruments as I could - there are passages of intense aggression, yet at other times passages are calm, reflective, atmospheric, and almost impressionistic.

Antiphonies est une oeuvre pour deux quintettes de cuivres et bien qu'il arrive que les deux formations jouent certaines séquences comme un grand ensemble, l'essentiel de cette pièce est basé sur des principes d'interférences antiphonales. A certains moments ces sequences présentent la même sorte de matériau, passant d'un groupe à l'autre tandis qu'en d'autres circonstances les quintettes échangent des phrases de nature contrastantes.
Je crois que les instruments de cuivre offrent des ressources musicales expressives extrêmes, tant dynamiques qu'émotionnelles et j'ai donc tenté de mettre autant de facettes que possible en évidence. Des passages d'intense agressivité alternent avec des séquences calmes, réflectives, d'ambiances et pour ainsi dire impressionniste.
