Description:
The slow movement of Three Little Fantasies is a quite elaborate Klangfarbenmelodie realization of the ‘Cloud-piece’ in my Hums and songs of Winnie-the-Pooh, and the outer pieces are variations on the melody. The first (very short) contrasts solo cadenzas with different choral groupings, and the last begins as a strict canon at four different speeds, ‘thwarted’ from time to time by tiny unrelated figures which then have to be absorbed into the canonic machinery. Diadactic considerations aside (they were originally – perhaps unrealistically! – intended as etudes in such things for young players) the Three Little Fantasies are concentrated in manner and light in effect, and this note takes as long to read as a movement to play.
