Yearning

Comments

Dedicated to Josep Fuster (clarinet) and Isabel Hernandez (piano). Slow and of a poetic character, this piece is structured in a single movement, like a little lied that requires interpretation of great delicacy by the performers

It contains melodic lines which unfurl along with harmony in modal style, with a protagonism which the performers modulate; it is through them that the interest in the two instruments becomes a feature of the composition, along with the elegance of its melodic lines and the counterpoint effects created by the dissolution of the harmony in displays of rhythmic accompaniment.
