Hudson Gimenez - Romance Nº 1

  My review:       Romance Nº 1   is a piece in three sections, with an accompanied melody texture and a tranquil tempo, creating an atmosphere of calm and reflection. The thematic unity and the constant accompaniment of arpeggios give the piece a sense of cohesion, with a second development section and a third recapitulation section. In fact, it is constructed from a harmonic progression (accompaniment) upon which small variations on the main theme melody are layered.       Gimenez's social links:           Facebook      YouTube      SoundCloud     Enjoy  "Romance Nº 1" ,  performed by Carlos Marín Trigo:

José Zárate - Pequeño Nocturno III

    My review:

    "Pequeño nocturno III", like the rest of the nocturnes in this series of four, has a relaxed, melodic character and an accompanied melody texture. In this case, the left hand performs an accompaniment consisting of a bass and chords, sometimes deployed in arpeggios, sometimes plated, producing a certain syncopated rhythm that helps to maintain the serenity of the piece.

    We could think that the nocturne is divided into three sections, attending to the main theme, which, in each repetition, appears at an interval of a fourth below the previous one.

    What stands out the most is that, in the central section, there is a small development of the theme in accelerando and cescendo, to reach the climax of the work.
