Published by C8 Music (A0.1305487). The sound of baroque strings immediately sparked an idea, an incipit, which hung in gestation, waiting for its moment to emerge. That moment came, sat at a café, a moment of calm in the bustle of the street. My blue pencil sketched the lines and layered the harmonies in my notebook, like the movements of a baroque bow. I can hear the players building the sound, adding sonorities and creating arches of melody and harmony. I love the way the baroque violin can articulate groups of two or three notes and keep them together in one large phrase. Chatelaine draws on the heritage of the instruments, finding beauty in the contemporary cacophony of life. 4.20. More at www.dominicmcgonigal.com.
