  • Wiener Philharmonic Fanfare, for brass and timpani, TrV248
    Year: 1924
    Genre: Other Chamber
    Pr. Instruments: Brass & Timpani
The Fanfare für die Wiener Philarmoniker was written in 1924. It is a short and celebratory piece with no discernible sections, scored for 6 trumpets, 8 horns, 6 trombones, 2 tubas and 2 sets of timpani. A trumpet opens and its call is replied by other instruments. The texture builds up to a chorale-like passage. The antiphonal calls of the opening return, and after a brief and more subdued passage comes the ending which closely resembles the beginning.
