Fantasia on two nursery rhymes


Emiliano Manna

Recommended Posts

Here I propose a tiny poutpourri on two of the most famous nursery rhymes: respectively Ring a Ring o'Roses (the Italian Giro Giro Tondo) and the evergreen Twinkle Twinkle Little Star (Ah! Vous-je dirai, Maman).

The structure is very simple: a slow, two-bar curtain leading to Ring a Ring and a variation, the reappearance of the curtain, a little longer with piangevole fluttertongues, the exposition of Twinkle Twinkle varied two times and the happy coda, in crescendo and stringendo, again on Ring Ring.

Happy listening! :happy:
