Composed by Paul Copeland. 20th Century,Contemporary. Score. 8 pages. Paul Copeland #4270195. Published by Paul Copeland (A0.901077).Here is my little avant-garde improvisation on the very well known J.S. Bach Two Part Invention in B Flat, that just about every piano student has learnt at one time.
Bach did not give any musical directions in his scores for keyboard, and I have therefore provided two versions; one version without any performance instructions, and the other version with minimal instructions. I suggest you look at the version without performance instructions, and work out your own interpretation. One interpretation might be to play the piece as if you are playing a two manual harpsichord. You could have two volumes for various sections, say pp and mf, but of course you would not have any crescendo or decrescendo in your performance.
Michael Kieran Harvey,. an internationally acclaimed concert pianist and composer performed this piece as part of my prize winning work Audacious Binary Forms. Here is a link to the world premiere performance
I hope you enjoy my little musical offering.
Best wishes to you in your music making, and bye for now.
