Three wind and three string instruments, guitar, piano, percussion – according to the call for submissions, this is the maximum cast for works submitted to the current round of the ACHT BRÜCKEN Composition Competition. It is identical with the combination of players in the ÉRMA Ensemble – and of course this is no coincidence, for this group will perform the works of three candidates for the first prize in the final concert. Furthermore, it will also perform a work by Tom Belkind, the 2021 Bernd Alois Zimmermann Fellow of the City of Cologne, which was not part of the competition. Its figurative title, »I see green Hills spill into the valley«, refers to a morning train journey which provided the first impulse for the composition: landscapes passing by, strangely beautiful patterns of random noises, freely roaming thoughts, memories, emotions, all this an intense experience in a trance-like state between fatigue and hyper-alertness. The music tries to transform this situation into abstract sound.
