Program note
In English
- Cadenza (2012)
- Quasi improvvisazione
- Accordion solo
- The score is in exact pitch, and the proposed registers can be changed according to the room and instrument.
- Cadenza is dedicated to Bjarke Mogensen and consists of excerpts from the second and fourth movements of the accordion concerto In Liquid... from 2008 - 10.
- Repeating notes alternating between bellows shake and natural bellows, in a long descending sequence of chords, culminate in a profound A-minor chord that ebbs away, followed by three deep glissandos. In the aftermath comes a slow coda with two voices slowly moving away from each other.
- Martin Lohse 2012
In Danish
- Cadenza (2012)
- Quasi improvvisazione
- Akkordionsolo
- Partituret er i klingende notation (exact pitch), og de noterede registre kan ændres efter rum og instrument.
- Cadenza er tilegnet Bjarke Mogensen og består af uddrag fra anden og fjerde sats fra akkordionkoncerten In Liquid... fra 2008 - 10.
- En lang faldende sekvens af akkorder med gentagne toner, skiftende mellem bellows shake og almindelig bælg, kulminerer i en gennemgribende a-mol akkord, der ebber ud efterfulgt af tre dybe glissandoer. I eftervirkningerne følger en langsom koda med to stemmer, der gradvist fjerner sig fra hinanden.
- Martin Lohse 2012
