Description:
Program note (English): Diaphora literally means 'distinction with regard to the repetition of the same word with a different meaning'. In this composition, motifs and tone series from an earlier composition were used and placed in a different light. The title, however, also refers to the first and third movements: both are based on the same chord formations and thematic complexes. A characteristic feature throughout the composition is the repeated curbing of a specific motion. For example in the first part: turbulent string figures alternate with sections that seem to stand still in time. In the second movement, a solo violin begins with a theme, followed by a violoncello, a second violin and a viola. After some bars, the motion becomes rigid, with long held chords, only slightly coloured by an accent or a tone shifting. After about twenty bars, the music is set in motion again, and gradually themes start shifting on top of each other. Then again there is a curbing with long-held chords. The third
movement has a slow introduction, consisting of twice a percussion solo followed by 'crescendo' figures in the strings. The fast section that follows is curbed once more, then seems to proceed, undisturbed, towards the end. - WILL EISMA
