composition
La volta : for piano solo, 1988-1989 / Diderik Wagenaar
Description:
Program note (English): The title of this composition is related to the ritornel-like structure of the piece.
Several layers of different harmonies are decorated by ornaments of polyphony. During the piece, the ornaments are fading out and the polyphony becomes homo rhythmic. At the end there are only repetitions of chords.
