- Program Notes
- Elegie in Bb Minor was composed in autumn 2025 and explores tension and release through shifting harmonies and interwoven melodic lines between the instruments. Moments of intensity are built from rhythmic momentum and close interaction, gradually giving way to more reflective passages. The music moves through tonal areas, allowing colour and character to evolve while maintaining a strong sense of forward motion. Throughout the work, recurring motifs are transformed and re-contextualised, creating a sense of continuity and growth. Elegie in Bb Minor ultimately balances drive and lyricism, aiming to capture an emotional journey that feels both restless and intimate.
