'Suite of Preludes' - Elliot Corner [HD]

Показать описание
A new recording of the 'Suite of Preludes' (Op.6), written and recorded by Elliot Corner, Violist and Composer.
Recorded Live at 'New Sounds', on the 22nd February by The Audio Project.
I conceived of the idea of this piece whilst playing the Prelude to Bach's Cello Suite No.3. I thought to myself- "The preludes to all the suites are the best bits. Shame there aren't any for the Viola..."
I decided to write a suite of 6 Preludes for the Viola corresponding to the 6 pieces in Bach's Suites and the 6 suites (and partitas) in Bach's collections for the Violin and Viola. There is the introduction, which is a prelude to the preludes, and 5 preludes that are also slight variations on the thematic material. The piece explores different moods, before ending with No.5- which starts as a chordal variation with a minor middle section, which instead of recapitulating as the theme from No.5; ends with the Introduction again.
This recording omits preludes 3 & 4.
I hope you enjoy this work! Please like it if you enjoyed it, and subscribe to 'ElliotViola' if you haven't already, and I will keep you posted in my goal to write repertoire for the best, and most underappreciated and underwritten for instrument- The Viola.
This work is dedicated to Sarah-Jane Bradley, my Viola teacher at the Royal College of Music Junior Department.
