Description:
Singing and playing traditional Christmas carols is an integral part of the festive season for many people. Many of the well-known melodies are characterized by a great grandeur, a dignified and noble character. This special quality is also the unifying element of Martin Scharnagl's latest four-part work. VIER WEIHNACHTLICHE FARBEN is based on the atmospheric carols "Leise rieselt der Schnee", "Zu Bethlehem geboren", "Es wird scho glei dumpa" and "Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht".
The unique fusion of tradition and innovation is considered one of the Austrian composer's unmistakable trademarks. For VIER WEIHNACHTLICHE FARBEN, the Tyrolean artist now had the creative idea of keeping the motifs (melodies) of his four Christmas pictures unchanged, but immersing them in completely different, fresher colors (harmonies) and exhibiting them in a larger, more magnificent setting. The familiar melodies are enriched with vocal counter-themes and expanded with newly composed interludes and endings. The result is four independent musical paintings of touching beauty. Each of the small works of art can be presented individually, for example in the form of an opening piece, interlude or as a resting point at the end. It is also possible to perform the composition as a large concert work in several movements (in any order).
