Joseph, Jeffrey - Salon Music

In writing Salon Music (in November and December 2020), I hoped to modestly break new ground by providing some light classical music for this combination of instruments.  Analysis would be otiose because the material is designed to be simply a filler, an encore piece or closing 'lollipop'.  Suffice it to say that the Tango is in A-B-A form, that the Canzonetta is strophic and that the Tarantella is essentially monothematic.  This latter section has one or two instances of bi-tonality - a great rarity in my music.  Jeffrey Joseph
