Donna Mitchell - Consolation No. 2

Autor el día
  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...

Donna Mitchell - Itsy Bitsy Spooky Spidy

Autor el día

 My personal opinion:

    To celebrate Halloween, composer Donna Mitchell presents her Itsy Bitsy Spooky Spidy. A very spooky version of the well-known lullaby Itsy Bitsy Spider (also known as Incy Wincy Spider).
    For the occasion, Mitchell has chosen a three-section structure, built around the same obstinate bass, played by the left hand, which maintains a sombre and mysterious atmosphere throughout the piece.
    In the first section, the complete melody appears in G minor, in the second section in C minor and in the last section, a mixture of both keys, after which, the piece concludes with a spooky coda.
