Symphonette in C - M. A. Cruz (2007) (Score and Parts)

Four movements of fun and energetic pieces written in the tradition of old-world composers with form and balance. The ideal composition to beef up the best of any trio program.

Intermediate

Symphonette in C
I. Fantasia
II. Rondo
III. Serenade
IV. Finale


PROGRAM NOTES:

Symphonette in C began as a sight-reading exercise for guitar trio, hence, the simplicity in the two middle movements. The two outer movements were quickly added to fulfill the potential for a collection. In addition to it’s contrapuntal quality and large repeat of the subject and development, movement one concludes with a renaissance ending in the dominant key. The final movement uses techniques and rhythmic material from each of the preceding movements and introduces a fourth and fifth voice within the last five measures for a well rounded conclusion. The composer suggests that the Fantasia, Rondo and Finale be performed with brisk tempos, while the Serenade opposes the others with a moderately slow, lyrical approach.
