Due Notturni : Version for violin and piano / Maximiliano Amici

Author(s):
Amici, Maximiliano (Composer)
Description:
The two compositions presented in this set, despite their different character, share a fundamentally nocturnal quality. The first piece, warmer, is inspired primarily by the idea of movement and is divided in two parts. In the first part, I imagined a gentle breeze caressing a shrub at night. The beginning of the piece describes an immobile, suspenseful atmosphere, then the piano starts playing arabesques, which symbolize the movement of the leaves. These waves fade, accompanying the listener to the second part of the short composition, more assertive.
In the second notturno, colder in character, I tried to evoke the calm of the night by using the piano in a register similar to that of the violin. This calm is abruptly broken in the middle of the piece with sudden and prominent piano chords. Slowly, afterwards, the nocturnal atmosphere is recomposed; the piece ends on a deep, dark note.
