Hudson Gimenez - Romance Nº 1

Autor el día
  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:

Laura JH Ball - Carol of The Bells for Solo Piano

Autor el día

     My review:

     The Christmas song Carol of the Bells comes from a Ukrainian New Year's song, titled Щедрик (Shchedryk), known in English as The Little Swallow.
It tells the story of a swallow that approaches a household and sings the wealth that will come in the following spring.
    The Ukrainian composer Микола Дмитрович Леонтович (Mikola Dmitrovich Leontovich) made a version of this song for a cappella choir around 1914, becoming his best-known work.
    Later, the American composer Peter J. Wilhousky made a version of said song translated into English, titling it Carol of the Bells, becoming popular as a Christmas song.
    The American composer Laura Jean Heintschel Ball presents us with an arrangement for solo piano of said song.
