Exil! op. 25

With "Exil! op. 25", a deeply moving symphonic poem unfolds, filled with intensity, melancholy, and expressive tonal colors. The work captivates through its extraordinary and fascinating instrumentation: conceived as a poème symphonique for string orchestra without double basses, the composition creates a transparent, almost floating sonic landscape of rare poetic beauty. The warm voices of the violins, violas, and cellos engage in an intimate, highly dynamic dialogue, vividly evoking the emotional turmoil and poignant longing of exile. This high-quality full score from renowned publisher Schott Music provides conductors and ensembles with the ideal foundation for rehearsal and performance. An expressive repertoire highlight that enriches any ambitious concert program with a unique atmosphere and profound depth.
