Programme notes *: The composition "Aus Maximilians Zeit" for wind orchestra by Albert Loritz is a fascinating musical journey to the time around 1500, to the era of Emperor Maximilian I. The suite quotes complex pieces and widespread song melodies from this period and merges historically transmitted material with the spirit of Renaissance music to create a new musical work. The first movement of the suite, "Quodlibet", transports the listener into a lively and multi-layered world of musical counterpoints and variations. The piece quotes various melodies and motifs from the Renaissance, which are skilfully interwoven to create a fascinating soundscape. The second movement, "Chanson", presents an elegant and lyrical melody that captures the atmosphere of courtly music of the time. The gentle and melancholic sounds immerse the listener in the romantic world of the Renaissance and convey a sense of grace and elegance. In the third movement, "Peasant Dance", the mood becomes more lively and cheerful. This movement reflects the simple and rustic life of the farmers and villagers as they dance through the fields and meadows to the rousing sounds of a dance. "Spectaculum (Performance of the Minstrels)", the fourth movement of the suite, presents a colourful and lively performance of minstrels and musicians. The music is full of energy and dynamism, while capturing the festive atmosphere of a medieval fair or a royal celebration. The last movement of the suite, "Lied", offers a calm and contemplative conclusion. The melodic beauty and simplicity of this composition is reminiscent of the songs and ballads sung in Renaissance homes and taverns, leaving the listener with a sense of calm and contentment. Overall, "Aus Maximilians Zeit" by Albert Loritz is a masterful composition that brings the rich and multi-layered musical world of the Renaissance to life in a fascinating way. The skilful integration of historical melodies and stylistic elements creates a new work that stands the test of time and takes the listener on an unforgettable musical journey.
