Nottuln is a festival overture that was created for the wind orchestra of the same-named community. The repeatedly recurring fanfare combines a G major and a G minor subject simultaneously, which results in a rather exotic feeling. It is complemented by an evolving majestic theme, which is only fully harmonized by the trumpets at the last appearance and thereby colored by sparkling woodwinds and pulsive drums.
