Laukvick writes, \"My colleague, friend, and mentor Werner Jacob commissioned this piece in the middle of the 1980s. He played the first performance in the church of St. Sebald, Nuremberg; my colleague Klaus Treßelt conducted. I thank Klaus warmly for his commitment to this piece through many years.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe letters EU in the title has no political significance. In German music terminology, E means ernste Musik (\"serious music\") and U Unterhaltungsmusik (\"entertainment music\"). This piece wants to offer both aspects. The combination of the two letters, EU, means \"good\" in Greek language. Euphonie therefore means \"well sounding\".\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInstrumentation:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePercussionist I \u003cbr\u003e2 Cowbells (f sharp, g sharp), 1 Cymbal (suspended), 3 Antique Cymbals, 2 Temple Blocks, 2 Bongos, Whip, 4.3-Octave Marimba (shared with perc.
