Donna Mitchell - Consolation No. 2

Antoine Bernollin - Madeleine

     My personal opinion:

    The entire piece is written in 3/4 time and with an accompanied melody texture. We can distinguish two sections, which share the same rhythm (marked by the accompaniment, consisting of a bass on the first beat of each comma and a chord that occupies the second and third beats).
    About the composer:
    Antoine Bernollin is a composer of modern music and especially jazz for piano.
