The only work still known today by Noack 'Heinzelmannchens Wachtparade' [Parade of the Brownies] Op. 5 was called a 'character piece' by the composer himself and this 'marche en miniature' conveys wit and good humour from the beginning; you can immediately imagine a picture of the brownies tripping along! The second part of the trio offers an ironical and very effectie ending with its enticing harmonies and surprising effects.
