Additional info/contents	The work "Infinity" is based on the fairy tale "Der Wundervogel und die beiden Bettelknaben" by Franz Xaver von Schönwerth. The composition programmatically reproduces the fairy tale and captures the different moods and feelings of the respective situations. The deep flute solo certainly causes astonishment right at the beginning. The miracle bird is no normal blackbird and so the main melody of the composition winds its way majestically into higher registers. This main melody is then varied according to the course of the fairy tale and reaches its climax in the tutti. In the score there are some quotations from the fairy tale in the footer. They serve as orientation as to which part of the fairy tale is set to music in the composition. This is intended to make interpretation a little easier. Information for the Conductor: At the beginning of the work a balanced orchestral balance must be ensured. Despite the low register, the flute solo should sound very full and soloistic. In the Allegro section, care must be taken that the percussion instruments do not drown out the orchestra and do not sound too hard in touch. For the different eighth measures, the division is prescribed and must also be conducted. The use of the flute in measure 154 should only be given when the tam-tam of the previous measure has almost completely faded out. This creates the necessary calm before the last slow part (slow and dark in tone), which then, as the piece has begun, fades away again into infinity. "Infinity" won the international Schönwerth Composition Competition of the North Bavarian Music Association on 22 October 2011 and was premiered by the "Bläserphilharmonie Regensburg" conducted by Jörg Seggelke.
