Traditionelle deutsche Weihnachtslieder in Sätzen von Hans Georg Pflüger
Traditionelle deutsche Weihnachtslieder in Sätzen von Hans Georg Pflüger
Der 1944 in Schwäbisch-Gmünd geborene Komponist entschlackt selbst sentimentale Weisen so überzeugend, dass man wieder genauer hinhört. Seine kammermusikalischen Sätze - in der Besetzung Violine, Flöte, Trompete, Pauken, Violincello, Cembalo, Klavier oder Orgel - scheitern auch an alpenländlerisch weichen Weisen und naiver Krippenlyrik nicht.
Quelle: Evangelische Kirchenzeitung Hessen/Nassau 50/1992, S. 17
