La Folia und einige Variazionen dazu, für Trompete und Orgel

In this modest menuet I salute Beethoven, having been born 250 years ago now, and all he did for the world and for me personally. 
i ofcourse used a fortepiano. Enjoy.

Minuet for Ludwig van Beethoven

Birthday Minuet for Ludwig van Beethoven

A song I wrote in commission, on lyrics by the Frisian Shakespeare, Gysbert Japicx. The song met bad fate; it was never performed, so - Soundcloud, here it is. For the vocal part I had to use a oboe here. 

Kind of stylecopy by Sipke Hoekstra (Fugitempus and 'The Eckmann Family') using diverse early, mid and late baroque techniques, relating them to contemporary elements)

Hoars - Hoffjen

What would Friedrich Burgmüller have been up to during lock down? 
He would probably have written something like this.
Used the magnificent UVI Fortepiano, included in UVI Orchestral Suite. Notated in Finale, but reshaped the MIDI in Cubase, mixing mastering with Waves, Izotope and Fabfilter.

All Eckmanns are in fact pseudonyms of contemporary composer Sipke Hoekstra, aka FUGITEMPUS. He uses these fake names for sharing his (early) tonal works and stylecopies, both old and new.
