Corrente
Catalogue No: CH67683
£32.50
Typically dispatched in 2-3 working days
Completed in 1992, Corrente was commissioned by the Swedish Literature Society Of Finland. As the title suggests, the piece bids a nod to the Baroque dance form , the Courante, based upon an ever-shifting series ofrepeatingostinati - the piece even contains a fleeting glimpse of Purcell's Funeral Music For Queen Mary.
However, a simple exercise in Baroque dance it is not. The title also translates as Flowing, and theostinati createa texture of ripples that contrast strongly with the stronger rhythms of the dance.
