  • Music for Solo Harp | Solo Harp Repertoire | Contemporary Music

    MUSIC FOR SOLO HARP | CONTEMPORARY MUSIC FOR SOLO HARP EAST OF THE CANE FIELDS for solo harp Duration: 8 minutes Instrumentation: harp solo Year Composed: 2001 Written For: Franziska Huhn ​ Premiere Performance: Boston, USA, 21 October 2001 Franziska Huhn, Harp MUSIC FOR SOLO HARP SOLO HARP REPERTOIRE VIEW SCORE LISTEN Program Notes: It is influenced by the cane field found in Boston’s Fenway Park. When blown by the wind, the canes move in such a way that produces a special visual effect, and a mysterious whistle. The flexibility of the canes makes their movement change constantly from one direction to the other. I translated this visual effect to sound and applied it to the harp. East of the Cane Fields was written for harpist Franziska Huhn.

The three songs in discussion were not composed sequentially. Instead, they were gathered to form a brief song cycle that explores the introspective ruminations and desolations experienced by a solitary woman. Despite their individuality, the three songs exhibit a remarkable similarity in motives, descriptions, and vocabulary, with some words intriguingly possessing a dual significance. ​ more about poet Leah Goldberg >>> VIEW SCORE Listen Score-Video Hebrew Art Song | Art Song in Hebrew | Israeli Art Song | Leah Goldberg | Israeli Lieder Leah Goldberg | art song | voice and piano

  • Contemporary Piano Quintets | Piano Quintet | Contemporary Music

    CONTEMPORARY PIANO QUINTETS | PIANO QUINTET. | QUINTET FOR PIANO AND STRINGS QUARTET PIANO QUINTET for piano and string quartet Duration: 18 minutes Instrumentation: piano, violins (2), viola and cello ​ Year Composed: 2000 ​ Commissioned by: American Composers Forum, the Jerome Foundation ​ Premiere Performance: Sarah Bob, piano Francine Trester, violin Christina Day, vioin Annette Klein, viola Mickey Katz, cello ​ Movements:​ 1. poco rubato e tranquillo 2. scherzo 3. adagio tenero CONTEMPORARY PIANO QUINTETS VIEW SCORE LISTEN Program Notes: I have always looked at the Piano Quintet medium as the little cousin of the piano concerto. The string quartet, being a unified, homogeneous medium on its own right, surround the piano and give it a generous permission to act like a concerto soloist. Nonetheless, the beauty of this medium is found in its chamber-music qualities, where all members express themselves as individuals and therefore create delicate and intimate musical moments. While writing my Piano Quintet (2000), I tried to integrate all these elements. It consists of three movements which are closely related thematically. The first movement, marked poco rubato e tranquillo , introduces one of the quintet's main motives. Right after the introduction, the movement takes a sharp turn into a faster tempo and a passionate character. A fast and determined scherzo brings out the light and virtuosic side of the ensemble. The last movement, adagio tenero is the most extended of the three and acts like an echo of the previous movements. The Piano Quintet was underwritten by the American Composer Forum, with funds provided by the Jerome Foundation.

It contained illustrations of animals, some real, some imaginary. The phoenix for example, was introduced through the Bestiaries. In his Bestiaries Israeli poet Dan Pagis, introduces six “animal” poems, from which I chose three.The text which is full with humor, gave me the opportunity to compose music that for most of the time creates a bold contrast to the written word.

Art Songs for Tenor and piano. VIEW SCORE LISTEN VIEW TEXT TENOR AND PIANO ART SONG Program Notes: Amy Lowell’s verses for children brought up many flashbacks from my childhood – a period of exploring, discovering and achieving little victories which we as adults take for granted. My approach, while composing the songs was to shift constantly between the way a child and an adult would view the given situation. The music tries to portray the psychological state of the poems’ hero and sometimes uses an over-dramatic statement, just like a kid would experience the situation. Sometimes on the other hand, things are softened, as viewed through the glasses of an adult. A Dome of Many-Coloured Glass was commissioned by Joe Dan Harper and Anne Kissel Harper and was made possible by a grant from the St. Botolph Club Foundation.
