Product Description

This is a composition I wrote for the Diabelli Composition Contest in 2014. The task for the composers was to compose a musical piece with different variations and styles based on a given rhythmical theme which is build by the morse code of I-R-I-N-I. IRINI is a greek word and means peace.

The morse code is ( * is a short note, - means a long note ):

* * * - * * * - * * *

I R I N I

In my composition I use different musical styles (baroque, classical, romantic, modern) and different musical themes as well to express my understanding of piece on earth. The rhythm of IRINI can always be heard in the background. The piece ends the same as it starts.
