Notes

Programme notes

The title Kühler Krug refers to a place in the city of Karlsruhe, Germany, I actually never have visited. In 2006 I was living a bit outside Karlsruhe in a small village called Wohlfartsweier, and each time I took the bus into the city and we reached the central station, there was a voice saying: "Hauptbahnhof, bitte umsteigen - Nächste Haltestelle - Kühler Krug".

Technical specs

All instruments are amplified. Se the score for futher information about techinal specification for the four soloists and the three percussionists.
