The Body of the Conqueror (2010)

The Body of the Conqueror
(2010)

for three violins and piano
45’

In six untitled movements. Music that dwells on repetition, territories, scales, culture—and that moves from dark to light throughout its course.

The fourth movement is a very free arrangement of the second movement of Ravel’s Sonatine, including direct excerpts of the original score in the piano part.
