Mike Herting about his piano piece "Choral für die Bruderschaft":
„Zur Bruderschaft ist zu sagen, dass ich bei meinen Reisen durch die Welt überall auf Musiker getroffen bin, die dieser Bruderschaft angehören. Dabei bin ich sehr wählerisch, denn nur der, der die Musik um ihrer selbst Willen liebt, darf sich zur Bruderschaft zählen. Also: Miles Davis, ja, Dieter Bohlen, o nein, etc. Und Beethoven ist einer der Großen Brüder, einer, der sagt: „Für solche Schweine spiele ich nicht“ und „Die einzige Fortsetzung der Tradition ist der Bruch mit ihr“. Deshalb liebe ich ihn und deshalb widme ich ihm dieses Stück.“
