Donna Mitchell - Consolation No. 2

  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...

Antoine Bernollin - Nightfall

 My review:

    Nightfall is a piece composed by Antoine Bernollin. Divided into three sections, the third is a recapitulation of the first, albeit a lower key (the first section is in A Major, while the third is in Sol Maayor). Both sections are characterized by perfect fifths played in the left hand, while the downbeats of the melody usually complete the chord, giving the third.
A friendly, calm and slow melody suggests a beautiful evening.
