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 - Вальс - "Квітучої ніжності сердець" / Irina Stepanova-Borovskaya - Waltz "The blooming tenderness of hearts"

  My review:

     Waltz  "The blooming tenderness of hearts" by Irina Stepanova-Borovskaya, is a short, slow, and expressive waltz in the key of C minor.

It consists of a short musical theme, characterized by the harmonic progression of the bass, over which several variations follow. The last two variations (before the recapitulation of the theme) are particularly noteworthy, as they are in C major, contrasting with the main key.
The recapitulation, an octave higher than the rest of the waltz, can also be considered a variation, since there is a very slight (almost imperceptible) rhythmic shift in two notes.
