This composition depicts some
episodes within a typical day
in the life of a kitten: the
bored napping on a fluffy
pillow (adagio), the funny and
faltering movements that
follow the awakening (rock),
and the excited playing with a
ball of wool (fugue). In what
could be described as a
compositional game, the author
grabs the attention of the
listener by alternating
moments of serene lyricism,
rhythmic power, and
contrapuntal geometries. |
