Black Mast conjures images of a dramatic life on the high seas of a pirate captain and crew. The music is in minor with angular melodies and contrast created through changes in tempo. A maestoso presentation of the theme leads to a dramatic conclusion.
Black Mast conjures images of a dramatic life on the high seas in the service of a pirate captain and crew. The work opens with a dramatic introduction, followed by the main theme at m. 9. At m. 17 a secondary theme related to the primary melody emerges; the primary theme reappears at m. 25 in the violas and cellos. A briskersecond theme, at a faster tempo, derived from the introduction emerges in m. 33. This second theme alternates with a lyrical courtly dance theme beginning in m. 45. This section reflects the non-combative aspects of life at sea and the joy of moving before the wind. At m. 73 the piece returns to the vigorous first theme andthe secondary theme from m. 17 leading to a dramatic, swashbuckling ending.Care should be taken to contrast the robust music of the primary themes and the more dance-like music of the middle section. I am privileged to be able to share this work with you and your students. I hope that it serves to both entertain and educate.—Peter TerryBluffton, Ohio 2016.
