Austrian Folk Fusion - Gerald Oswald

The composition 'Austrian Folk Fusion' vividly illustrates how old and new can harmoniously blend together. Traditional music serves as a solid foundation for creative developments and modern interpretations. This is demonstrated in the composition through the transition from traditional Lndler to contemporary rhythms. Skillful changes in tempo and meter, as well as diverse variations in motifs, support the journey from the traditional sounds to the modern musical language.

Austrian Overture - Thomas Doss

Austria is an industrious country. During the last century--which was characterized by extreme changes--the hard-working and ambitious people achieved a great deal, enduring two world wars and numerous political skirmishes. Despite all the problems involved in a change from a dual monarchy to a small state, Austria has found its independence. With his Austrian Overture, Thomas Doss looks toward the future. The first part of the composition provides an optimistic outlook; along with the happiness and energy, some musical humor is also present: while the horns powerfully express joy, small yodeling melodies sound throughout. As the rhythm continues insearch of new ways to go, catchy tunes compete to be heard. However, in addition to the energetic, diligent Austria, there's also the quiet landscape where one can enjoy repose and beauty. These aspects - as well as the freedom of spirit and cultural life -are conveyed in the second part of the work through the surprising linking of chords, romantic phrasing, and tender melodies. But life never stands still: creativity, ambition, and work are the driving forces of our existence. Embracing this thought, a reprise of the first part provides a compelling ending.
