Der Pfennig (The Penny)

“When Art appears before your door”

Madrigal based on an anonymous text from the 15th Century

for mixed choir a cappella (1975)

Even a few years after the

introduction of the Euro, the essence of this text is still relevant today: “If you've got a penny on you, doors and gates will open to you”.

The rather simple and restrained, sonorous piece builds up at this point to a highly effective virtuoso stretto. Eminently suitable for competitions and examination performances.
