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 Départ de Madame Hiver

  My review:

    Le Départ de Madame Hiver is a piece for piano composed by Antoine Bernollin.
    The piece consists of a melody played in the right hand, with an accompaniment that is constantly repeated throughout the work, consisting of an interval that performs a rhythmic design of syncopations.
    The exposition and reexposition is striking, in which the truncated theme begins, repeating itself to the extent that new motifs are added.
    About the composer:
    Antoine Bernollin is a composer of modern music and especially jazz piano.
