La Quintessenza DE MEIJ JOHAN

Musique pour orchestres et ensembles

Description :

La Quintessenza is a musical approach où the quintessence, the heart où the matter. By focusing a five note motif in a number où variants, De meij tries to get through to the essence où the musical matter. The core où the composition is a lyrical middle part (Arioso), preceded by an opening fanfare for brass (Introduzione) and a burlesque variant où the same motif (Capriccio). In the fourth part (Alla Marcia) this main motif is only used as an ambient signal, and in the Finale the opening theme is repeated so the musical walk-round is complete.
