  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...

Marianna Korol-Shekhmester - Prelude I

Autor el día

 My review:

     Marianna Korol-Shekhmester's First Piano Prelude is a piece divided into three main sections.
    The first, whose texture is an accompanied melody, is characterized by its rhythmic character, in which the left hand repeats arpeggios in triplets.
    The second, whose character is more melodic, begins with a series of chords played spread out between the two hands; As we approach the end of this section, the hands play a series of arpeggios, first in C major, although, changing color to C minor, in an "agitato", which serves as a link for the third section, which It is a re-exposition of the first, although raising the level of drama and expressiveness, thanks to that "agitato" and the doubling of the main melody to the octave.
