World premiere: 4 December 2000, Würzburg, University of Music
Sebastian Bernhard | Thorsten Lindner
My first encounter with a work by Bertold Hummel was his “Poem”. Hence: a French title
A modest grand seigneur who leads without making you feel stepped on and keeps you moving. Hence: a waltz
The initials B and H. Hence: the notes C sharp and D very often.
The piece itself is 75 bars long and is intended to last 75 seconds.
