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...

Bethany Wakim - Between

Autor el día

 My review:

    Between is a piece by composer Bethany Wakim.

Composed in three sections, each of which is identified by ending with a ritardando.

Its texture, of chords deployed in sixteenth notes, is maintained throughout the entire work.

It stands out for a design that, from an ornamental point of view, could be considered as two pedal notes, as it is an ostinato that is constantly played in the left hand.
