Genre Classical Contemporary Romantic Period 21st Century

Product Description

This is a work for solo piano, in late Romantic style. It is dedicated to the composer's grandmother, who was Russian in origin, and the title means 'I am from beloved Siberia'.

The main motif at the start is based on a folk tune, 'Kamarinskaya'. This opening section gives way to a cadenza which is followed by a harmonically tonal passacaglia, reminiscent of baroque style, and suggestive of a church atmosphere. The final section is expressive and lyrical, accompanied by tremelos, then a flowing left hand. There are many stormy moments in the piece, but it ends quietly.

It is advanced in difficulty, post-ARSM level.
