Donna Mitchell - Consolation No. 2

Vangelis Vlahakis - Βόλτα στο πάρκο / A Walk in The Park

 My review:

A Walk in The Park is a piece with a calm character and a moderate tempo, divided into three sections.

This makes the second section feel like a development of the first, and the third section like a restatement.

A ritardando marks the transition between sections.
