\nThe tragic fate of composer Oskar B\u00f6hme long went unresearched. His music suffered a similar fate. On his new album \u201cOskar B\u00f6hme \u2013 Trumpet Concerto & Pieces\u201d the trumpeter Matthias H\u00f6fs is joined by The Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen in a performance of his most ambitious works that aims to win a hearing both for his striking and sensitive music and for the story of his life. The album will be released by Berlin Classics on September 30.<\/p>\n
The Trumpet Concerto \u2013 which is the only Romantic 19th-century concerto for trumpet \u2013 is presented here in Matthias H\u00f6fs\u2019s own orchestration. It is a challenging work that holds the attention with its dramatic narrative and powerful cadenzas. <\/p>\n
The \u201cpieces\u201d on this album display the full stylistic spectrum of B\u00f6hme\u2019s oeuvre. \u201cEntsagung\u201d is memorable for its soft tone colours that admirably bring out its restrained sorrow. \u201cSoir\u00e9e de St. Petersbourg\u201d evokes the image of the city at night with its illuminated palaces and glittering canals. His \u201cRussian Dance\u201d is heard on this album in a version for mixed ensemble. The musical language that pervades this piece illustrates B\u00f6hme\u2019s fateful affinity with his adopted homeland. The furious haste of \u201cLa Napolitaine, Tarantelle\u201d once again proves the capability of the fully fledged trumpeter. The ambitious Trumpet Sextet in E flat minor brings to a close our journey through selected works of Oskar B\u00f6hme.
\nFor many years little or no information was available about the composer. Oskar B\u00f6hme was born into a family of musicians near Dresden in 1870; he studied in Germany and Hungary and then emigrated to Russia, where he even changed his nationality in order to improve his chances of a place in one of the great orchestras. Despite his efforts to achieve perfect integration into Russian society, his German origins proved fateful when the Bolsheviks seized power \u2013 after years of persecution, he was executed for \u201canti-Soviet activities\u201d on October 3, 1938. <\/p>\n
\u201cOskar B\u00f6hme \u2013 Trumpet Concerto & Pieces\u201d is the third album that Matthias H\u00f6fs has recorded with the German Chamber Orchestra of Bremen.
