Work introduction:
Tonal Poems for violin and piano.
Poemas are sound poems filled with imagery and tonal colors working together to create a broad spectrum of emotions set in a short period of time. They are enriched with harmonic extensions, melodic architectures, form and stylistic elements often found in Classical, Jazz, Blues and other music genres. In Poemas, each of the individual parts serves as though the “verses” in a literary Poem; independent and yet necessary for the function of a greater organism. Because the piano part is not just a mere “piano accompaniment” to the violin line, I recommend the violinist become acquainted with it in its entirety. These scores refrain from the excessive use of dynamics, articulations, etc… so to allow the performing artist experience their own emotional journeys with absolute creative freedom.
