Milbertshofen Concerto (Tuba & String Quartet) (Neuheit Tuba) I. Bushaltestelle Zur Panzerwiese / II. Damals in Milbershofen... / III. Die Jagd Auf Den Grossen Hund 1. Bus Stop to the Panzerwiese when taking the bus out toward the edge of the city, you can reach pure nature in just five minutes. This meadow is characterized by a great variety of rare plants as well as a nearby forest. It is simply a feeling of happiness to be there far away from the noise of the city and polluted air 2. Back Then in Milbertshofen When I moved to Milbertshofen 55 years ago, you could still walk across open fields almost all the way to Schwabing. This movement is both a reminiscence of that time and a longing for the past. Today, everything is covered with apartment buildings 3. The Chase After the Big Dog Back again on the Panzerwiese: one morning at dawn, in the fog, a huge Doberman-like dog suddenly stood before me. I was startled and he was startled too. I stared at him, and he stared back at me Then I smiled at him, and I believe he smiled back at me as well. That is how we became friends. He invited me to play with him and to chase after him. Note In the field of classical music, this is probably the only composition in the world written for this instrumentation.
