Donna Mitchell - Consolation No. 2

  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...

Elena Davis - Nocturne

  My personal review:

  Elena Davis's Nocturne in C minor can be divided into three sections.
The first consists of a melody in the right hand, accompanied primarily by arpeggios in the left hand.
The theme feels powerful, and the harmonic progression lends it a certain force.
The second, contrasting section continues to have the texture of an accompanied melody, although the melody is made up of flourishes over chords, which are completed by the long double notes in the left-hand accompaniment.
The third section is a varied retelling of the first, leading us to the final cadence.
