Feuer und Wasser (Fire and Water) for wind quartet by David Warin Solomons Woodwind Quartet - Digital Sheet Music
By David Warin SolomonsThis sequence and melody was inspired by a poem written by a friend called Otto Wanke, who was going through the teenage angst of splitting up with the first girl he loved. The title (Feuer und Wasser = Fire and Water) refers to the idea that these two "elements" are incompatible, but the music (in minor mode with occasional hints of Dorian) is a simple lament rather than a musical description of the "elements" in question. The music was originally written as a song for alto voice with classical guitar accompaniment (to which I have added an English singing translation). It has since been rearranged for various instruments with guitar (cor anglais, flute, clarinet, viola, violin) and also as a more sophisticated version for flute quartet and for wind quartet. In all cases the pdf file contains score and parts. The sound samples are electronic previews, except the original song which is performed by the composer. All of these versions are available here - just search for "Feuer und Wasser"
