Conventus
Musicus CM 105
A
melody with wide-ranging curves opens, in very slow tempo, the first piece.
A motoric Presto section suddenly breaks the atmosphere. This is repeated - with
varying emphases - several times in the course of the movement. A brief, lively
coda concludes the Monologue. In "Contrasts",
different bird-call patterns are brought into play against each other, in a way
like mobiles. Virtuoso runs, flutter-tonguing and rubato playing are important
elements in the final Presto. Bertold
