Composed by Thomas Oboe Lee. 20th Century,Contemporary. Score. 29 pages. Thomas Oboe Lee #6321315. Published by Thomas Oboe Lee (A0.869855).Program note:
Last summer I wrote Préludes … Hommage à C.D. All 12 movements were inspired by Debussy’s Book I of the same title. I enjoyed it so much that I thought I would eventually do Book II as well.
As I got around to it I discovered that Book II did not resonate with me as did Book I. So, I went looking at the many, many other solo piano works by C.D. and I came across his "Six Épigraphes Antique" which engaged me tremendously.
As I did with Book I, I took initial elements of Debussy’s music and then took off in my own direction from the original. The original "six épigraphes" has a duration of 15.5 minutes. That is too short for me. So I added two more pieces from Debussy’s works: "Poisson d’or" and the famous "Réverie." It is now ca. 26 minutes in duration.
I. Pour Pan, dieu du vent d’été … Moderato
II. Pour un tombeau sans nom … Adagio
III. Pour que la nuit soit propice … Allegro
IV. Pour la danseuse aux crotales … Adagio
V. Poisson d’or … Moderato
VI. Pour Cléopâtre, l’Égyptienne … Largo
VII. Pour remercier la pluie du matin … Presto, TRIO
VIII. Réverie … Adagio
Enjoy!!!
