Hudson Gimenez - Romance Nº 1

  My review:       Romance Nº 1   is a piece in three sections, with an accompanied melody texture and a tranquil tempo, creating an atmosphere of calm and reflection. The thematic unity and the constant accompaniment of arpeggios give the piece a sense of cohesion, with a second development section and a third recapitulation section. In fact, it is constructed from a harmonic progression (accompaniment) upon which small variations on the main theme melody are layered.       Gimenez's social links:           Facebook      YouTube      SoundCloud     Enjoy  "Romance Nº 1" ,  performed by Carlos Marín Trigo:

Ronald Karle - Meditation Seven

 My review: 

    Meditation Seven is a piece with a slow character and an accompanied melody texture.

    On this occasion, Karle uses variation as his main resource, since, as he repeats the theme, he varies it slightly. He also makes use of symmetry, but not as he has done in previous variations, since, in this case, it is not an exact symmetry. Another resource he uses is double notes, although, in this case, he uses them in the first beat of each bar and only in one of the variations, which, by the way, is the only one that is repeated.

    It should be noted that Karle claims that his Meditations are pieces to "play at home" in order to relax and meditate.
