Additional info/contents	"Ida Rides Ice Skates" is a work in contemporary musical language with many effects. The "mysterious" beginning in slow basic tempo by harp (obbligato) and trombone glissandi in dialogue with alto saxophone glissandi is followed by a fast "swing" part (2/2 bar) with E-flat clarinet solo, followed by "improvising" baritone saxophone solo. The quarter accompaniment ("walking bass") by percussion and double bass with alternating low brass. The following section (Allegro molto) is characterized by rapid sixteenths in all registers and leads back to the slow basic tempo of the beginning. An exposed cadenza-like piccolo solo is accompanied by harp and double bass. After the music from the beginning ("Mysterious") sounds once again, a very slow and sustained part follows with long note values which begins quietly, increases dynamically and discharges in an outburst. After a short "pause", it continues in a virtuoso dance with solo piccolo, flutes, oboes and cor anglais. A counterline in contrabassoon and bass clarinet is accompanied by pizzicato quarters (2nd euphonium, tuba, contrabass) and harp. This is followed by an intensification by expanding the sound with clarinets, then saxophones until powerful orchestral chords lead to the fast-paced, dramatic final section. The work is set very chamber-musically and soloistically (also contrabassoon, cor anglais) with the most varied combinations. The exposed E-flat clarinet part is particularly noteworthy in terms of instrumentation. Harp and tubular bells are also obligatory.
