| 18103 | Lars Werdenberg: 5 Notturni (2003) |
| |
|
|
for viola solo sFr. 29.00 , € 22.00 - Notturno I "Aria" My aria material comes from an Italian lullaby, which is actually quoted in this piece. The title "Aria" is also meant literally (aria = air) as the song alternates between being "breathed" and being played on the strings. - Notturno II "Siciliano" A play with the rhythmns of the Baroque dance bearing the same title. Each one is danced from top to bottom. - Notturno III "Labyrinth Musick" The violin strides through a tonal labyrinth of 3 intervals and 5 durations. It finally finds its way out - via the octaves. - Notturno IV "Heaven and Hell" A high (heaven) and a low (hell) sound landscape slowly merges. The begining and the end of the piece, however, is played on the earth. - Notturno V "When the Shantyboy comes down" Zapping through 18 radio stations (all played by the viola) searching for the song which lends its name to the title of this piece. Shortly before the end the composer believes he has found the right station - or is he mistaken?

for pianoforte and Baroque string quartet sFr. 49.00 , € 38.00 This work in one movement is a homage to Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach. It contains quotates from the Fantaisies and from a Rondo by this composer. The pianoforte part is either in a free style, concert-like or very rhythmic and demands an advanced level of play. The quartet is written in traditional notation. The piano which was used for the world premiere was a copy of an instrument of 1815.

for horn and string quartet sFr. 31.00 , € 24.00 This work quotes a Haiku recited once by the hornist. It is inspired by the acidic sounds of Gagaku (music of the imperial court of Japan) and by the tense melismas of Nô. The string quartet's tempo is generally independent of the horn's. The five instrumentalist need to have a good command of micro intervals. The particular timbre of the quartet derives from researching the "fake" unisons.

The fourth string of the violoncello is lowered a minor third to A. Accessory: a bow for the flutist. At the end of the work the violist and the flutist both play on the strings of the violoncello. A discreet quotation appears in the middle of this trio: the beginning of the 'Gesänge der Frühe', op. 133 by Robert Schumann.

| |
|
|
for flute, clarinet, piano, percussion and string trio sFr. 18.00 , € 14.00 Sometimes completely different musical types or structural samples are set aside each other in a similar way to the effect achieved while zapping through television channels, sharp cuts which seem at first random are intentional. Even the other meaning of ‘cut-sample’, the prefabrication of something based on a template or the stereotypical also receives acknowledgement through the mimicry of musical styles. In this manner, various fields of popular music are touched upon - even contemporary music cannot escape.
| ||
| 2698 | Max E. Keller: Unione e tremolo (2002) |
| |
|
|
for violin and viola sFr. 16.00 , € 12.00 Conceived for a world premiere in the Gobi desert, this piece must be extremely desert-proof. Unisono and octavel sound doubling forms the initial starting point. This, on the one hand side, turns a contemporary music taboo into material and brings the sound and the drifting apart of the duo into play on the other.

The security net provided by the rational prearrangements allows greater freedom and confidence in the emotional decisions made regarding concrete sounds, instruments, complexity and developments.
| ||
| 26112 | Max E. Keller: nel pomeriggio (2006) |
| |
|
|
for baritone saxophone and string quartet sFr. 23.00 , € 18.00 (Stimmen beim Komponisten) A comfortable afternoon in a dusty café: As in times past, a string quartet plays a waltz that nobody listens to, a never-ending, continuously repetitive violin melody and an almost imperceptibly shifting accompaniment. Added to this is a completely inappropriate baritone saxophone - sometimes blending in, sometimes detached and sometimes obstinately defiant. Suddenly a bang! And everything collapses into shadowy ruins.
| ||
| 26113 | Max E. Keller: Eingriffe (2006) |
| |
|
|
for flute, clarinet, piano, violin, viola and violoncello sFr. 34.00 , € 26.00 (Stimmen beim Komponisten) The initial material consists of two melodies and two rhythmical sequences; these can be varied causing their superpositions to result in a countless number of related musical forms. The recurring formal idea is the "undampered clew": a dense, wide mesh that thins out then squeezes itself into the centre of the sound space. In this clear, goal-orientated process, diversity is encroached upon: three instruments temporarily break out of the process, colourful accents engage with the continuous mezzo forte, the process stops momentarily, the residual viola tips over into the realms of noise etc.

| 26117 | Max E. Keller: 12-06-07 (2007) |
| |
|
|
for soprano, oboe, alto saxophone, horn and viola sFr. 34.00 , € 26.00 A text about statistically the most frequent causes of death in Switzerland takes its course and is interspersed by ten extremely varied newsflashes from real life, all of them objets trouvés from two daily newspaper of 12th June, 2007. The statistical information is set to music in a recitative manner with very few, primarily sustained notes. This is in contrast to the ten newsflashes whose music is composed with lively movements and a tangible pulse in various structures. The somewhat macabre text montage reflects the apparent phenomenon of the sometimes-grotesque contrast of various themes and texts, which seems to magically attract humans.

| 26118 | Max E. Keller: concertare e improvvisare (2007) |
| |
|
|
for flute, oboe, clarinet (bcl), violin, viola, violoncello and improvising piano sFr. 26.00 , € 20.00 This work contrasts notated music with improvised music. The sextet is extensively notated; the piano merely has several verbal suggestions. There are, however, also moments of improvisation in the sextet where, for example, each instrument initially and independently of the others repeats a phrase, which gradually changes following verbal instructions. Each begins this process with great intensity, playing as loud and as quickly as possible – very much in the style of early free jazz.

| 26120 | Max E. Keller: Wie Kraut und Rüben (2008) |
| |
|
|
After the picture bearing the same title by Paul Klee for oboe, bassoon, guitar and viola sFr. 16.00 , € 12.00 In the painting "Wie Kraut und Rüben" by Paul Klee transparent white dots are spread over a red background in irregular rows and create thereby a subtle pulsation within a regular grid. By painting over the dots with the brush, these dots turn into lines, spots and signs. This technique, which Klee called "pointillate", has been transposed to dots of sound, arranged in rows, superimposed in irregular, free rhythms by the four instruments.

| 26124 | Max E. Keller: accent - figure - layer (2008) |
| |
|
|
A project between improvisation and composition for bass clarinet/tenor saxophone, percussion, piano, violin, viola and double bass sFr. 26.00 , € 20.00 The wide scope between improvisation and composition is calibrated. There are, however, no long notated passages but form sequences, short notated phrases as starting points, verbal instructions and graphics - right through to improvisation as one extreme. The musical material is based on the archetypal elements 'accent', 'figure' and 'layer' as mentioned in the title. The through-composed parts "unione e tremolo" for violin and viola (movement II) and the violin solo "NONONONO" (movement VII) are inserted between the six movements as the other extreme.

| 26128 | Max E. Keller: Wendepunkte (2009) |
| |
|
|
for piano, percussion and string quartet sFr. 34.00 , € 26.00 For advanced amatuers. This piece was composed for the music Matura. The education of young people is the same for all until the Matura stage. Here, at the first major turning point in their lives, individuals must decide which direction they wish to take. Thus the 'turning point' became one fundamental concept behind this work, walking together and walking alone became another. They are processed on various levels - both on the quasi-motif and the formal.

Streifend durch Klanglandschaften ziehen, streifend Klangfarben berühren,streifend Streifen streifen......." Two string instruments stand face on with two percussion instruments whereby the "percussion's" primary objective is to attempt tonal alignment with the strings. The vibraphone plays a coupling role between the two parties. Polar oscillating movements, stratifying and sometimes recolouring, flowing sound bands and flitting pulsations alternate throughout the piece.
| ||
| 18205 | Cécile Marti: Oktogon (2008) |
| |
|

for string quartet and horn quartet sFr. 65.00 , € 50.00 Four horns stand face on with a string quartet. These two close and self-contained sounding groups are led into a kind of duet. It begins with the construction of two sounds before developing into a back and forth oscillation between the two sounding groups. There follows a mutual attempt at tonal alignment and then fine variations where the groups enter an area of wavering tones. Re-colouring moments of the horizontal figurations or a hocket-like interplay between the two parties arises. The themetization of the instrument-specific base elements, the fifths tuning of the strings and the natural spectrum of the horn become the harmonic culture medium for the whole piece.

| 10721 | De-Qing Wen: Silk Bamboo (2001) |
| |
|
|
for flute and string quartet sFr. 47.00 , € 36.00 (Matériel chez le compositeur) This piece is inspired by ‘Sizhu’ (silk and bamboo). ‘Sizhu’ is a traditional Chinese musical form used popularly in Central-East and Southern China. The silk bamboo ensemble consists of "soft" instruments with si silk strings (pipa, erhu, zheng) and zhu bamboo instruments (bamboo flutes, dizi). In this work the composer tries to integrate the ideas of traditional Chinese music with modern Western composition techniques. The silk is soft - ‘Yin’ (feminine): pianissimo and lento. The bamboo is hard - ‘Yang’ (masculine): fortissimo and allegro. Although the instruments, the musicians, the way of composing and time have all been transformed the spirit of the music and the Chinese emphasis of the musical language remains unchanged.

for viola solo and six violas sFr. 44.00 , € 34.00 This piece is dedicated to my beloved elder uncle. My elder uncle had been offering the five children in my family with parental care and financial help since my father died early when I was young. Now he has gone to the heaven but his figure seems even greater and clearer just as sound is while rising high up the earth, revealed by the Buddha. In this piece, harmonic series sequence based on the note of C serves as a symbol of death and heaven, and subharmonicity series sequence based on the note of E as a symbol of life and the earth. Interpolation is also used to make additions, blending and transition. Added to this, the spectrum music technique and the music-making software Open Music help me discover a fresh way to express my emotions.
