Chopin - Alter Ego

Back

See a score excerpt

Scherzo no. 3 for solo marimba – based on Chopin’s Scherzo no. 3 in C-sharp minor (Op. 39). The piece uses Chopin Scherzo’s chromaticism to build the motivic structure. The musical unfolding culminates in a quote from the “meno mosso” section of the original rearranged into a powerful marimba choral. This is a very virtuosic and difficult marimba solo dedicated to the most advanced marimba players.

 

Chopin - Alter Ego is a collection of nine pieces for marimba and vibraphone based on a body of works by F. Chopin. The work is based on the total of fourteen music examples from Chopin’s repertoire that are quoted, reworked rearranged, used as basis for motivic development or functioning as a general inspiration. Each piece in the collection is based on a different musical form used by Chopin (etude, nocturne, mazurka, scherzo, waltz and ballade). The pieces function as independent entities that can be performed separate from each other but at the same time they all together create a large, closed form with specific dramatic unfolding and movements to be performed in the specified order. In addition, the four Scherzos themselves also create a closed structure and can be approached as a separate four-movement piece.
