Momentum
Robert
Longfield
|
A driving rhythmic
melody is supported by unilateral "hits" in the lower
voices to generate a great deal of intensity in this overture for
strings. As the "momentum" begins to slow, your first
violin has a brief opportunity to show off some beautiful lyrical
playing over pizzicato strings. The haunting melody moves
toward a glorious key change before regaining momentum into the
opening material. Very accessible and a great addition to your next concert!
