Soliloquy for Harp No. 5

Recommended Posts

This is my 5th soliloquy for harp. I had previously posted my 2nd, 3rd, and 4th, but they all got erased due to the renovation of the website in early May 2016. I might post one or more of them in the future as part of my repostings of older, deleted pieces. Meanwhile, I hope you enjoy this one.

This sounds really complete. Nice work. 16th note runs in mm. 12, 14 I was little put off by, since they relate very little to what we've seen (even though I do see the elaboration of a simple central turnaround), and the ending with its prolongation of the i chord was, I feel, a bit unnecessary, but the parallel 5ths at m. 11 and the cadence before the repeat were nice to hear.

Those lovely fast bits around 0:53 really added a nice dimension. This strikes me as confident composition; you seemed to know what you were going for, and you went there. It paints a lovely picture: a bit antique, warm and inviting but also a bit off-putting. I like it, and I'd very much enjoy to hear how it contrasts with other vignettes from the suite.
