It's
often a composer's
experience that the idea
planted in one piece may
also germinate
unexpectedly in another,
which is how Gaslight
Square II, a
seven-minute scherzo for
piano duet, grew from a
brief study of
boogie-woogie style in
Gaslight Square1
for solo piano. So, in
addition to this
jazz-derived element that
is developed and extended
in the more ambitious
piece, there's also a set
of little canons shared
between the players, and
a wistful melody heard in
the setting of haunting
four-part
counterpoint.
Players of Grades 7 or 8
standard and above will
find Gaslight Square
II not only hugely
enjoyable to play but
also a valuable study in
duet textures that
require their interaction
in a variety of
characteristic ways.
Duo Antithesis
premiered Gaslight
Square II at the
Ruglander Wasserschlosse
in Bavaria, Germany in
July 2005, and the work
has been broadcast on
Bavarian Radio.
