LYRICS:

There's a place
That suffers so many notes,
Where the heavens start,
and hold her body's chains.
and the heart remains.
He never stole things
Others things
Would you hold them high?
With the fallout's soul?
Is this right? well, no.
Rhythms fold, together they'll hold
There can be a meaning
Headlong, her hearts already still.
(oooh)

*

Its the same
There's only one way in
and the squalor builds
In the die-cast tomb.
The kitchen's making us sick
She's probably waiting
Underground
Fukushima splits
and Chernobyl's tomb waits...
All their songs
together, sound wrong
Inflection is gone
Headlong, the heart's already still

The Heart's Already Still

Fugue In C minor  - 4 voices

Contrapuntal Improvisation

Prelude & Fugue No. 3 for piano (2012)
The prelude is slow and elegiac in character, opening with simple chords that feature in several transformations throughout the piece. The melodic material is always in the left hand. The fugue has a complex structure based on the Fibonacci Series (1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13 etc.). The notes of the ‘subject’ unfold gradually using this series. When the ‘subject’ is 34 notes long, the process is reversed, gradually losing all the earlier notes. Throughout the fugue the ‘subject’ material also appears into shorter note values, so that in the last 3 bars it simply disappears off the page!

Commissioned by German violinist Erich Doflein, Béla Bartók composed his 44 Duos, Sz.98 in 1931 as a series of pedagogical pieces not unlike his Mikrokosmos (1926-1939). Bartók draws from a variety of Eastern European folk melodies & dances as per his youthful ethnomusicological travels with colleague and composer Zoltán Kodály, representing music of many eastern European oral traditions: Hungarian, Romanian, Ruthenian, Serbian, Slovak, Ukrainian, and more. The exquisite quality of the counterpoint, as well as the timbral contrasts, harmonies and melodies make these works ideal for translation to the transparent colors of violas da gamba.
