+Volker Carl Jacoby von DuMont neuelich war wieder mal das TRIPLE CONCERTO DANS LE GOUT ITALIEN (1978) zu hören, hier in der Schweiz: das TRIPLE CONCERTO war neben der TOCCATA - ARIOSO - GIGUE einer von Miegs "Hits"... d.h. das Werk schaffte es weiter als zu einer (mehr oder weniger) üblichen "Urdernière"...
Returning to this piece after first hearing it about 3 years ago on this channel. You Tube keeps good records as it wont let me give it another thumbs up :-) But seriously, this a great work. Luscious harmonic string writing throughout. For me the Toccata is masterly.
You may also be interested to know that Peter Mieg has never had a performance of any of his compositions at a BBC Promenade Concert since it began in 1895. Now I write a full season of concerts that I send to David Pickard (Proms Controller) every year and have done for the last 6 years. I always get a reply but nothing really changes!! But they study it. However, I am currently working on 2022 programs ( I always send 2 years in advance) and would love to include one of his pieces in my prospectus. You are the expert, which one do you think would make maximum impact and I'll try and work a program around it?
Habe es gestern gehört. Hervorragend!
Danke, Markus, schön, dass es von Mieg immer wieder etwas Neues zu entdecken gibt! Gruß, Volker

David A you can find three different recordings of this work, it used to be a Mieg “hit” back in the 60s and early 70s...
@@cygnebleu Thank you Markus

Dear David, I give you my e-mail, it's easier to write there, my e-mail-address is: cygnebleu@gmail.com
and I've just found out that next month an orchestra in Berne is going to perform Mieg's Concert for flute and string orchestra: www.konb.ch/
