This
volume contains
contrasting works by
Federico Ruiz spanning
quite a large and rich
period of his
compositional output that
goes from his early
Micro-Suite (1971), to
lilting, sweet and
rhythmic Venezuelan
waltzes passing by the
mysterious, intimate, and
intense Nocturno (1994)
plus pieces originally
composed for film, and
theatre. Real eclecticism
in styles, moods and
atmospheres that show
Ruizâ??s talents and
scope.
The
Nocturno is a deep,
intriguing, substantial
piece presenting a
satisfying length which
moves from different
paths of the mind and the
heart written in an
abstract, chromatic
idiom, that does not
dissociate itself from
the Venezuelan waltz and
the joropo. One could
perhaps say that there is
a deconstruction of the
latter. For the
interpretation, the
composer has suggested to
me that it is allowed to
have some flexibility in
the tempo. Ruiz kindly
dedicated it to me, and I
have had the pleasure of
performing it in many
concerts.
Although
all highly expressive,
the Three Venezuelan
Waltzes present in this
collection as well as the
piece titled Aliseo, are
works that are close to
the colourful Venezuelan
folk tradition. Federico
Ruiz had given me two of
them when we first met:
â??Tu Presenciaâ??
(1981) and
â??EloÃsaâ?? (1989)
and then I attended a
performance of the play
â??Office Number Oneâ??
by Miguel Otero Silva
with a fantastic actor,
Elba Escobar in the role
of Carmen Rosa and, I
just fell in love and was
very moved by the
incidental music that I
later discovered, by
reading the programme,
had been written by
Federico Ruiz. Later that
evening, I called him and
asked to please make a
piano score of the
composition, so I could
have the desired piece in
my hands. That is how
â??Carmen Rosaâ?
waltz (1987) came to
exist in a piano
version.
â??Elois
aâ?? is another
Venezuelan waltz with
more jazzy harmonies
where precision in the
rhythm and elegant
playing is also
essential, as it is in
most of his
pieces.
â??Tu
Presenciaâ?? was
dedicated to his mother,
Margarita. It is written
with the structure of the
Venezuelan waltz, which
consists of a nostalgic
subject that leads to a
faster, happier middle
section where the typical
graceful rhythm is given
by the left-hand
accompaniment figure of a
dotted crotchet followed
by a quaver and a
crotchet.
The
craft and magic found in
the five movements of the
Micro-Suite is based on a
dodecaphonic row by Ernst
Krenek. They remind us of
the idiom of the Second
Viennese School. These
real miniatures seem to
tell short stories. The
â??Preludioâ?? is full
of humour. I imagine
dancing figures given by
the jumps all over the
keyboard and extreme
dynamics; the phrases
give the impression of a
conversation with many
questions and answers.
The â??Invenciónâ??
is a kaleidoscopic piece
where the hands mirror
each other. The
â??Passacagliaâ?? is
the longest movement, at
just over a minute where
the prime motif is
repeated three times on
the bass line. For its
construction Federico
Ruiz uses as well the
retrograde and the
retrograde inversion of
the twelve-tone series.
It must be played
expressively with dynamic
contrasts between
pianissimo and louder
events. The
â??Scherzoâ?? has
repetitive motifs of a
minor third in both hands
and the â??Finalâ??
displays virtuosic
passages for the
pianist.

Stacy
Garrop’s ROAD
WARRIOR is music of
real-life tragedy,
expressed through the
power of a trumpet/organ
duo. Drawing inspiration
from Neil Peart’s
autobiographical book,
“Ghost Rider:
Travels on the Healing
Road,â€
Garrop’s work
grieves the loss of a
friend’s young son
and the journey to
healing. ROAD
WARRIOR’s
evocative movement titles
are drawn from passages
in Peart’s book:1.
I Am the Ghost Rider2. My
Little Baby Soul3. Are
You With Me
Here?. When Clarion
members Keith Benjamin
(trumpet), Melody Steed
(organ), and I initially
discussed possible topics
for a new piece, Keith
brought up his son
Cameron, who had passed
away at the age of seven
from leukemia. While
Cameron’s life
ended too soon, he left
an indelible and lasting
mark on his those
surrounding him. Keith
asked if I could
commemorate Cameron
musically.In talking over
possible ways to do this,
Keith mentioned the book
Ghost Rider: Travels on
the Healing Road. The
book was written by Neil
Peart, who is well-known
as the longtime drummer
and lyricist of the band
Rush. Peart suffered the
heartbreaking loss of his
daughter in 1997,
followed by his wife 10
months later. In an
effort to work through
the grieving process,
Peart did what his wife
suggested before she
passed: he got onto his
motorcycle and hit the
open road. Ghost Rider
chronicles a year of
Peart’s life in
which he drove for 55,000
miles, zigzagging his way
across Canada, the
western portion of the
United States, Mexico,
and Belize.
Peart’s powerful
story illustrates how he
coped with immense loss
and eventually emerged on
the other side to once
again embrace life. Keith
had found Peart’s
book helpful in dealing
with Cameron’s
death; moreover, Mr.
Peart sent Cameron a
signed cymbal while he
was in the hospital
undergoing treatment.
This unexpected gesture
of compassion and
generosity meant the
world to both Cameron and
Keith.I chose three
phrases from
Peart’s book to
serve as the inspiration
for the movements in Road
Warrior. In the first
movement, I am the ghost
rider, I imagined the
performers to be howling
phantoms that are
haunting drivers on a
nearly deserted highway.
Peart often mentioned
that he felt haunted by
ghosts from the past
while on his journey, and
sometimes felt like a
ghost himself, moving
through an immaterial
world as he rode from
town to town. The second
movement, My little baby
soul, references
Peart’s wording to
define his own inner
essence that he was
trying to protect and
nurture while on his
journey. In this gentle
movement, I capture the
innocence and simplicity
of a newborn soul. The
piece concludes with Are
you with me here? In this
movement, I depict the
performers as they search
to find connections to
those they have lost, and
to those still
living.Over the course of
his travels, Peart kept
up a steady letter
correspondence with his
close friend Brutus. In
one of his first letters,
he repeatedly asks Brutus
if he is with him in
spirit. I found it to be
very poignant that while
in his self-imposed
exile, Peart discovered
that he still needed
connections to humanity.I
wish to thank Mr. Peart
for granting me
permission to use his
phrases as the movement
titles, and for serving
as the inspiration for
Road Warrior. Rarely do
any of us make it through
our lives without being
touched by the loss of
someone dear to us. I
found Peart’s
insights into his
grieving and recovery
process to be insightful,
eloquent, and
surprisingly comforting.
His journey is a touching
reminder that with enough
fortitude and time, we
can work through what
fate deals us and
continue down our own
road of life.
