Donna Mitchell - Consolation No. 2

Autor el día
  My personal review:      We had already discussed what a Consolation is in music in a previous article , as well as the possible sources of inspiration for Franz Liszt, the first composer to use the name Consolation for one of his pieces.      Donna Mitchell's Consolation No. 2 creates a calm, poetic, meditative atmosphere.      It is a piece in two sections, each of which is divided into three subsections, plus an introduction and a coda; its slow and leisurely tempo, as well as the constant accompaniment of arpeggios, are the main characteristic of this piece.      It is worth noting that the second section, although it feels like a restatement, has certain variations (especially in the second subsection), which create some interest for the listener, which is further enlivened by the surprising coda.      Mitchell's social links:      YouTube (Channel 1)      YouTube (Chann...

Michael Bakrnčev - Elegy

Autor el día

 My review:

    "Elegy" by Michael Bakrnčev, it is a work written during a difficult moment in the composer's life and inspired by a moment of pain and despair.

It begins with an introduction consisting of a melody played by the left hand and which serves as the basis for the entire work, since it will be constantly repeated throughout it.

It is followed by a first section in which, on the same melody, the right hand presents the main theme.

In a second section, the right hand plays a totally different theme, and in the third section, the main theme is resumed, albeit out of phase with the bass of a chord.
