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 Twelve

  My review: 

    Meditation Twelve is a piece with a moderate tempo, in which the composer mixes some of the resources used in previous meditations.

    On this occasion, the composer has chosen a melody accompanied by a rhythm created by the left hand.

In the case of the first theme, the accompaniment, consisting of arpeggios, with a dotted quarter note, eighth note, quarter note, and quarter note rhythm, contrasts with the accompaniment of the second theme, also arpeggios, but with four quarter notes, and the first of each four is played an octave lower.

From this point on, he makes variations in the accompaniment, taking advantage of the musical material we already have. Thus, in the second section, the first theme is accompanied by its initial rhythm, but the first quarter note is played an octave lower. In the last section, the accompaniment is in the initial register but with the four quarter note rhythm originally corresponding to the second theme.
