Description:
From the composer: 'In the tradition of Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco's ‘Variations travers les sicles;' Astor Piazzolla's ‘Histoire du Tango;' and Dominick Argento's ‘Letters rom Composers;' I have taken a historical view of composition for my Variations on a Theme by Sor. This new set of variations follows Fernando Sor's little Menuet in c minor op. 24 no. 1 as it makes its epic journey across time and space through the nineteenth century and into the early years of the twentieth century. During its travels; the theme meets and pays its respects to the godfathers of nineteenth century music; and as a result; is irrevocably transformed.' For advanced players.
