Product Description

The Inspiration

In 2023 I decided to review a piece I had composed in 1990 to honor a friend I was singing with in a choral group at that time; Charles Munion. He never heard the piece as I felt the classical contemporary style would be a bit much for his ears! Beyond that I don't have allot of recollection as to the inspiration or what my thoughts were at the time of the composition. In regards to the revision, I added additional music to the third movement in order to balance out the movements and reworked some of the choral voicing.

The Music

Written in a contemporary classical style it follows the classic structure of 3 movements:

  • First movement brisk, loud forceful in nature
  • Second movement slow and lyrical
  • Third movement light and quick but with a forceful ending
While in a contemporary style, at heart it maintains tonal centers throughout. While there is a few brief moments where I can here a little Bartok, as a whole I would say this piece is unique in regards to its style.
