His collaboration with Magnus Lindberg (b. 1958) in particular is in a class of its own, comparable to other great partnerships between composer and clarinettist in the history of music – Mozart and Stadler, Weber and Bärmann, or Brahms and Mühlfeld. Kriikku has been involved in the emergence of many of Lindberg’s works. Quintetto dell’estate (1979), Linea d’ombra (1981), Ablauf (1983/88), UR (1986), Steamboat Bill Jr. (1990), Duo concertante (1990/92) or the mini-concerto Away (1994) are all but inseparable from Kriikku’s rich, virtuoso clarinet sound. In all these, the soloist is cast in a variety of roles, extending from the plain to the aggressively theatrical. The concertante element has been an important component in the music of Magnus Lindberg from the very first, but arriving at the writing of structured concertos has not been an easy journey. Lindberg’s concertos are incarnations of his relationship to tradition, perhaps because they are the only works in his output to have a conventional generic title. The Clarinet Quintet written for Kriikku in 1992 can be added to this group; it nonchalantly brushes aside all possible comparisons with Mozart or Brahms. Lindberg began writing a piano concerto in the 1980s, but it metamorphosed into a powerhouse with concertante elements, Kraft (1985). Kriikku was naturally involved in the ‘concertino’ group in this work, Magnus Lindberg Toimii Ensemble. Lindberg had another go at writing a Piano Concerto and completed it in 1991 but sub- sequently had to go back to the drawing board four times before the work reached its present shape (1994). 2 Composite ODE_1038_Booklet 9.6.2005 10:19 Page 2 C M Y CM MY CY CMY K His struggle with the Piano Concerto was not in vain. sections, whose tempo is slower, are also characterized The work distanced the composer from orchestral by an active vibration that propels the musical drama action pieces and took him towards a more lyrical and and the collisions between soft and edgy sound worlds. sensuous idiom.

In looking at it today, it’s as fresh and new as when it was made in 1982. Cars may change, along with hairstyles and clothes … but the performances, particularly by the children and by E.T. himself, are so honest, timeless, and true, that the film absolutely qualifies to be ranked as a classic.

I see my music now as a synthesis of these elements, combined with what I learned from Grisey and the spectralists, and I detect from Kraft to my latest pieces the same underlying tastes and sense of drama.” – Magnus Lindberg The shift in musical thinking that Magnus Lindberg thus described in December 2012, a few weeks before the premiere of Era, was utter and profound. Lindberg’s composer profile has evolved from his early edgy modernism, “carved in stone” to use his own words, to the softer and more sonorous idiom that he has embraced recently, suggesting a spiritual kinship with late Romanticism and the great masters of the early 20th century. On the other hand, in the same comment Lindberg also mentioned features that have remained constant in his music, including his penchant for drama going back to the early defiantly modernistKraft (1985).

    Cantatas for the First Sunday in Advent St. Maria im Kapitol, Cologne None of Bach’s identifiable cantata cycles actually begins at Advent or coincides with the start of the liturgical year. Only the fact that his appointment as Thomascantor occurred in the summer of 1723 explains why his first two Leipzig cycles start with the second half of the liturgical year, the Trinity season, with its theological emphasis on how Christians should cope in the actual world, and then move on to the first half, which traces the principal events of Christ’s life on earth. But that does not diminish the exceptional significance Bach attached to Advent Sunday, as is immediately clear from his three surviving cantatas for this red- letter day. All three (BWV 61, 62 and 36) are based in one way or another on the favourite Advent chorale of the time, ‘Nun komm, der Heiden Heiland’, Luther’s 1524 transformation of the Ambrosian Advent hymn ‘Veni redemptor gentium’. It has a dark, imposing character, one that Bach reinforces – or softens – through his inventive variety of treatments. In the earliest of the three, BWV 61 composed in Weimar in 1714, Bach superimposes the old medieval chant on top of the most avant- garde music he then knew, the French overture of Louis XIV’s monopolistic court composer, Lully, and thereby brings just the right flavour of majesty, awe and expectation to this first day in the liturgical calendar. A decade later in Leipzig his model for BWV 62 is now Italian, a violin concerto movement full of Vivaldian rhythmic bounce and gesture – italianate, too, in the way it conjures up a vision of an airborne angelic orchestra, like a Filippino Lippi fresco.
