Ample - 2019 Violin + SSAATTBB

This is part 3 of the Nativity Songs that I wrote for singes/ choir a capella. Not easy to perform well, but doable, in my opinion. There is a part 4 on its way, O Magnum Mysterium. I always wanted to write a series of my own interpretation of these ancient texts that are still so familiar. The recording is an impression of the piece since all vocal parts are performed by myself. Of course the sound will be much richer when tenor and bass parts are sung by male singers.

To be performed by 8 singers or choir SATB. Scoresavailable. Contact J. Ehlhart

A Boy Was Born - 2023

This is a coproduction of my father composer/pianist Frans Ehlhart and myself, The vocal track is a result of instant composing by myself together with Julia Bachmann, Pelle van Mansvelt and Ulrich Bessel. As a group of music therapy students we recorded improvised vocal music in a church. My father later added a prepared piano track and used the end result as a soundtrack for a dancing performance directed by Inge de Peinder in Rotterdam about the life and death of South African poet Ingrid Jonker.
