Composed by Rick Robertson. 20th Century,Repertoire. 4 pages. Published by Rick Robertson (S0.17583)."Solitude" was written at one sitting in 1993, and first performed by the dedicatee, Beth Cleaveland, in the spring recital of that year. Now she is Beth Cleaveland Smith, married and raising a family, and probably wishes she HAD more "solitude"! This piece has always been a favorite in my studio (until "Arietta" in 2005 it was my most-frequently-studied piece), and has been played by pianists of all ages. I have used it as a church offertory, and played it at weddings as well. It is a simple melody with just enough supporting broken chords to keep that melody front and center, with a few surprising harmonic turns along the way. You can see a video performance of the piece here - http://youtu.be/pVT-pORZw9U - if the link does not work, copy and paste it into your browser.
