Beschreibung
The Lords of Aist depicts the history of the Upper Austrian city of Aisterheim. In the city centre is a wonderful castle surrounded by water. The beginning of this composition describes the magnificent castle (bar 9). Court life is reproduced by a Morris dance (bar 19). During the Austrian peasants' war the castle served as a border fortress in the Bayern province, in Bavaria (Bar 53). In this peasant war, catholicism was imposed on the Protestant farmers. Neuböck depicts this by using two Church songs: Der Mond ist aufgegangen and Großer Gott, wir loben dich (Bar 91). A calm middle section (Bar 151) with a soaring flugelhorn solo depicts the city as a health resort. In bar 187, all of the themes finally come together in a dynamic climax in which Aisterheim is described as a young and dynamic city.
