These five pieces evoke (in chronological order): - a seemingly never-ending canon that only stops as it reaches the lower register, like a water fountain with water cascading from top to bottom basin - - a stubborn, angry child, chuckling as he decides not to wear a certain piece of clothing he loathes - - a cat softly walking across the piano keyboard and suddenly leaping onto the child's shou…

Par LEVINAS MICHAEL. En 1996, Concertation m'avait permis de réaliser une polyphonie de sons tournants évoluant harmoniquement selon le principe d'un choral. Le spatialisateur de l'Ircam permet de superposer des trames (ou des lignes) chantées par quatre voix. Ces trames se propagent et tournent dans l'espace à des vitesses multiples créant ainsi des effets de Doppler et des entrelacements polypho…

Par ZELENSKI WLADYSLAW. Wladyslaw Zelenski had the Six Character Pieces for piano, op. 17 ready around 1871, although it is quite possible that he composed them earlier, even in 1864. Such is indicated by the opus number. At that time he was giving opus numbers to works in chronological order of composition.

Par VAN BELCUM HENK. As the title suggests, this work is a partita: it consists of a number of variations on a chorale melody. The partita has been popular for centuries, especially when it comes to organ music. Henk van Belcum, who is active in the choir world, chose for his Partita Piccola the German hymn Wunderbarer König as a starting point. Partita Piccola consists of four variations and a ch…
