Beginnings Beending

for violin and harp
composed 1989; duration 12 minutes
commissioned by Walter Gaffron
world premiere Danish Broadcasting Corporation 1989
Walter Gaffron – violin; Sofia Asunción Claro – harp

Five fairly unrelated sections are separated – and thus united – by a brief, recurring statement in the lowest strings of the harp. It is as if the piece in its recollection of earlier music finds new energy to explore other possibilities, yet refuses to settle down in any particular vein.
