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...

Iрина Степанова-Боровская - Irina Stepanova-Borovskaya - Ноктюрн №2 - Nocturne No. 2

Autor el día

  My review:

     Nocturne No. 2 by Irina Stepanova-Borovskaya is a piece in three sections, with a calm tempo and an accompanied melody texture.
    The work is in the key of D major and, as the subtitle indicates, is composed in the style of Chopin.
    An accompaniment of eighth-note arpeggios serves as a leitmotif throughout the piece (interrupted only by a recitative-like motif separating sections two and three).
    The culmination of the first section is a paraphrase of Chopin's nocturne, Op. 9 No. 2.
