WERNER WOLF GLASER :
Motette über Sprüche des Angelus Silesius
(for unaccompanied SATB div. choir)
Wednesday 1 November, 2006 – Tjernigov, Ukraine
Dmitri Bortnjanski Chamber Choir, dir. Otfried Richter
Edition Suecia, Stockholm, 1990 (SUE 367)
“... In his extensive output, Glaser developed a modernist tonal language, based on his studies under Paul Hindemith. His confident handling of melody and his inspired treatment of form bear witness to the fluency of his inspiration and to his attainment of a personal style of craftsmanship. Momentum and elaboration techniques were among the guiding starts of his imagination. His distinctive characteristics also included a sense of expressionist gesture. He prefered to achieve the expressive quality of his music by short, strict means instead of allowing the tonal material to overflow. Glaser greatly valued the capacity of the musical language for conveying intensity in pared-down, controlled figures.”
