rooted – uprooted – together with “new music“, woodwind chamber music can
be regarded as the cutting point between folk music and concert music. As
opposed to the “courtly“ sounds of strings, woodwinds have always conveyed a
more rustic, homely atmosphere. A strong basis of folks music is clearly audible
in the works of Janácek, Igudesman or Brunnlechner.
