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 - Le Mat

 My review:

    "Le Mat", also known as "Le Fou", is one of the arcana of the Marseille tarot. He is the only one of the arcana that does not have a number, which is why he is granted special powers. Among other things, he is associated with naivety, laughter, enjoyment, disrespect, self-confidence, chaos and lack of control.
    The music of this piece by Bernollin has a naive, introspective and meditative character.
    With a structure of three sections and a bass consisting of chords that accompany the main melody, the last section is a restatement of the first.

    About the composer:
    Antoine Bernollin is a composer of modern music and especially jazz piano.
