Program note: Piano Trio No. 2 Shosty Suite (2012) is in seven movements. The subtitle gives a hint as to the content of the work. The "suite" is in reference to the Bach Suite for Unaccompanied Cello and the Orchestral Suites. And Dmitri Shostokovich has been an influence in my music for a long, long time. Accordingly the movements are ordered in a similar manner as the Bach Suites, except for the Courante and the Allemande, which is reversed in my work. 1. Prelude Andante! 2. Courante Allegro! 3. Allemande Allegro ma non troppo! 4. Arioso Adagio! 5. A little Polka Allegro! 6. Sarabande Largo! 7. NAG (not a gigue) Presto agitato! I think the first movement is quite reminiscent of Shostakovichs music; the octave doubling, for example. A Bachian drive in triple meter is the dominant feature in the second movement, but the feisty melody in the strings is very Shosty. Bach again prevails in the third movement, especially in the cello part. The fourth movement is typical TOL music: reminiscent of the languid and sorrowful moods from Latin America! The fifth movement is a "polka," or maybe I should say its a martial polka of sorts. The Sarabande movement is another TOL constant: slow, haunting, mesmerizing music! The last movement in a Bach suite is usually a gigue. But I decided to do a NAG; i.e., "not a gigue." Its a romp, nonetheless, but in duple meter. ENJOY!!! Audio link.
