Suite Op. 82 (SCHLEE THOMAS DANIEL)

Par SCHLEE THOMAS DANIEL. A suite whose movements always deliver something other than what they seem to promise. But throughout, the two instruments and respectively their players act like two people in very specific situations: I.: The opening movement is reserved for the piano; the initially earnest, solitary cantilena intensifies creating expectation. Suddenly II.: the violin sounds. Its moving figures replace the now silent piano, also soloistically. III. 'Passacaglia': The title is taken literally - the two instruments/persons encounter each other in the street. Two musical characters who meet at a specific point, recognize each other, but move on again, each one by itself. IV. 'Rondo': The two of them dance together. Before me, I saw people dancing the Sardana - a round dance - in front of the cathedral of Barcelona. Four themes in different time signatures circle ceaselessly between the two instruments. V. 'Fuga': At last, regardless, panic flight - again the title is taken literally ... Human, only too human .../ Répertoire / Violon et Piano
