Limoncello
|
|||
|
·
Dedicated to Mexican
cellist Carlos Prieto ·
Length: 4 minutes ·
Mood: light, serenely
joyful ·
Description: Limoncello is a very
sweet, peaceful, lyrical and tonal piece. It was written at the same time as
“The Dawn of Hope” and “Crepúsculos” (Twilights),
after the composer had lost someone very dear to him. While “The Dawn of
Hope” is about acknowledging the challenges in life, but using the
transforming energy of love and compassion to find hope for the future,
Limoncello is about that moment in which one can smile again after a tragedy,
and see the beauty of life again. “Crepúsculos” is
a meditation about the inexorable passing of time. Even though “Limoncello”
is "sunnier" and brighter than the other two pieces, it evokes a
sense of noble gentleness and tenderness. ·
Premiere: Lowell Chamber
Orchestra, Orlando Cela flute soloist and conductor. December 2019
(recording), January 2021 (album release). ·
Programming notes: This piece can be
performed as a suite in combination with other compositions by Elizondo. For
example: o
“The Dawn of
Hope”, “Limoncello”, “Crepúsculos” (Twilights) |
