Piano Solo - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1250575 Composed by Jonathan David Whitcomb. Baroque,Classical. Score. 2 pages. Whitcomb Music #844857. Published by Whitcomb Music (A0.1250575). This piano piece brings to mind the pure counterpoint of the two-part inventions of Johann Sebastian Bach but with a unique harmonic style that differs from the harmony of that Baroque composer yet feels similar. In spite of that difference, it may sound, to the ears of many listeners, like a new discovery: another little keyboard invention by Bach. For those with more refined ear, For Elizabeth may seem like a piece of the soul of Bach's keyboard works . . . minus the old wig.Bach's clear dominant and subdominant harmony is absent, replaced with a four-note chord (or arpeggio) that takes the place of both dominant and subdominant. For many persons, however, it may sound like another Bach two-part invention.It could be termed an exercize in arpeggios, yet it can be delightful to master: a refreshing change for those who've enjoyed Bach's keyboard inventions or a potential delight for those who have never encountered those pieces by the Baroque master.This is NOT an arrangement of a piece by Bach but a 21st century composition by Jonathan David Whitcomb.Two pages.
