Hi all!
This is an Adagio for a Piano Trio composed for a flute, a violoncello and piano. As the title suggests, this Adagio is written for a dear friend, Eva, who has supported me throughout many hardships and whom I love dearly.
The music depicts the brilliant light of her soul, the ever-existing floyd-ism (sic, referring to the sweet melancholia that can result from listening to Pink Floyd) and...some turmoil and surprises. This is reflected on the piece's structure.
This Adagio was written in the December of 2006. Eva had her birthday and I decided to give her a special present. Thus, after finishing the adagio, I gave her the manuscript, which she still has.
Currently, I am rehearsing the Adagio with some friends, so as I can record a live performance of it. I shall bump this thread when I do.
Yesterday I completed the copying of the (I kept a photocopy, of course) manuscript in the computer. So, I decided to share it with you, before the actual performance. Now I am in the process of turning this into a decent score. Tell me if you want it posted.
Techniques used: nothing special...simple harmony, broken chord lyrical melody, a couple of clusters, some secondary dominants, a modulation and a modal ending...
Structure: Very straightforward, really.
Problems: Nothing, except for the tight deadline. I barely made it in time!!
Here it is...the computerized one:
