Gebet und Jubelfeier
As the title “Prayer and Jubilation” suggests, this piece is one of a spiritual nature. The first part is slow and reflective, almost meditative. The second part is upbeat, joyful and uplifting, similar to what one would experience while attending services in a place of worship for most any religious faith. In “Prayer”, uniform phrasing, as well as proper breath support and intonation are the most crucial elements of performance. In “Jubilation”, proper articulation and an emphasis on the contrast of slurred passages in the Woodwinds against marcato phrases in the Brass will ensure a successful presentation of this work.
