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...

Vicenzo Piano - Waltz for A Hummingbird

Autor el día

 My personal review:

  Waltz of A Hummingbird is a short piece in three sections.
The first section is an exposition of the theme with a typical waltz accompaniment (the bass on the first beat, and on the second and third beats it completes the chord).
The second section, which feels like a development, slightly modifies the melody and, in the case of the accompaniment, doubles the bass at the octave on the first beat, and on the second and third beats it completes the chord, but shifts its note position.
In contrast to the first, this second section feels more robust.
The third section, a restatement, is a repetition of half of the first section, but at a higher octave, which makes it seem more delicate, like a final coda.
