"Circum" solo for Alto by Bernard Chapron
Circum solo for Alto
The piece for solo viola CIRCUM was written in 2000.
It is built around the letters B.A.C.H. The architecture is in classical form with three parts ABA' followed by a coda.
The extreme parts use this motive "celebrated" by many composers and treated with vivacity in tremolos alternately scintillating pp and ff . The central part, very slow, begins hesitantly and develops expressively, quoting the theme very fleetingly.
