Description:
The title, with its 'end of 19th c.' connotation, indicates a rather contemplative and elegiac piece, in form of an arch, with an esthetic and syntax - tonal and modal - which places it slightly out of its time. 2 3 The movement of thirds plays a predominant role, being in the form of a slow garland of parallel and straight eighth notes on the violins (which constitutes the essence of the work) or within the tonal relations among the different episodes. 4 5 6 To insure for the instrumental balances between the soloists and tuttis, the required minimum instrumentation for this work is: 4, 4, 3, 3, 1. 7 8 Jean Balissat
