LARGO In homage to B.A.C.H. (2013) for string orchestra

NOVELLO

LARGO in homage to B.A.C.H. was commissioned by the Carmel Bach Festival 2013 and its Music Director Paul Goodwin, to whom the work is dedicated. First performance 13 July 2013 at Sunset Center Theater, Carmel-by-the-Sea, California by the Festival Orchestra, conducted by Paul Goodwin.

INSTRUMENTATION: String Orchestra (5.4.3.2.1) DURATION: c.6’

COMPOSER’S NOTE: My very first idea was to use the BACH initials as a basis for the work - not as the melodic motif often used by composers, but rather as a harmonic structure. This is possible because in the German musical tradition, B stands for B flat and H for B natural. This led to the thought that there would be four short sections, each led by a different soloist, forming an emotional journey: Lamentoso (mournful), Ardente (fervent), Inquieto (restless) and Sereno (peaceful). The double bass leads the first section, B. Lamentoso (B flat major). The cello leads the next, A. Ardente (A major), faster and higher in pitch to reflect the change of mood, and when the viola soloist urgently interrupts in C. Inquieto (C major), the scene is set for a big climax. In the final section, H. Sereno (B minor), the mood quietens before an eloquent violin solo leads to a brief quote from the famous chorale featured in the St. Matthew Passion, O haupt voll Blut und Wunden. The work ends in calm and peace, with a 'tierce de Picardie'. In turn, each soloist carries the linear activity as protagonist on this emotional journey, and the accompaniment to each section is dominated by the ‘tonality’ indicated. But there is also a mysterious ‘misty’ overlay, only dissipating after the viola’s tempestuous climax. The cluster of notes that makes up this ‘mist’ is formed from the octatonic scale, in each case incorporating notes of the triad of the relative section to determine its tonality (B flat major, C major etc). Each section therefore uses only the notes of the octatonic scale1 associated with it – until the viola begins to incorporate a chromatic scale2 – and it is only in the final section that the familiar diatonic scale3 appears, and the mist is dissipated. Therefore, although the overall feeling of the four sections alters to travel spontaneously and 'organically' through the arc of the piece, each section (B.A.C.H.) is rigorously organised and controlled with similar internal ingredients as well as within a ‘master plan’. This, for me, is the essence of Bach. TM

Octatonic scale: 8 notes, built alternately of whole tone and half tone steps. Chromatic scale: all 12 whole and half tones within an octave. 3 Diatonic scale: 8 notes across an octave, all but 2 of which are separated by whole tones. 2
