Description
I got the idea for this composition when I stayed at Lake Attersee in Austria in winter. The music captures the atmosphere and almost mystical mood of the misty morning, when I woke up and looked over the water with fascination. At the same time, I found the calm of the lake, which was only interrupted by the motion of the waves, extremely powerful and energetic in a special way. The different formal and solo parts of the composition are intended to reflect these impressions in a musical way.
Instrumentation
