Hudson Gimenez - Romance Nº 1

  My review:       Romance Nº 1   is a piece in three sections, with an accompanied melody texture and a tranquil tempo, creating an atmosphere of calm and reflection. The thematic unity and the constant accompaniment of arpeggios give the piece a sense of cohesion, with a second development section and a third recapitulation section. In fact, it is constructed from a harmonic progression (accompaniment) upon which small variations on the main theme melody are layered.       Gimenez's social links:           Facebook      YouTube      SoundCloud     Enjoy  "Romance Nº 1" ,  performed by Carlos Marín Trigo:

Marlene Moore - Busy Fingers

 My personal review:

 Busy Fingers is a piano piece with a brilliant character.
    As its name suggests, it is intended for the study of finger dexterity.

It is structured in two sections, each further divided into two subsections, built upon a harmonic progression in the left hand, which is repeated throughout the piece.
At the same time, each section is introduced, like a ritornello, by a scale of sixteenth-note triplets.

The difference between the second section and the first is that the first is played in the middle-high register of the piano, while the second is played in the middle-low register.

Once both sections have been played, a repeat sign takes us back to the beginning of the piece, and after the repetition, a short coda, reminiscent of the introductory triplets, although this time consisting of arpeggios that repeat from the low to the high register, leads to the final cadence, which is repeated from the high to the low register. One of the most striking things about this piece is the way the composer takes advantage of the entire range of the piano, with fast and virtuosic notes.
