Arabesque and Fugue in E - (2023)
for organ
After a 'pyramid' gesture, the theme of the arabesque sings out over the accompanuying alto voice, the pedal punctuating wiht some irregulairty in thi 10/8 meter. Structures of ten quarters over two-measure lengths providing the conitnuity.
The fugue begins with an accentuation of the seventh of the scale, and repretitions extend its length. A number to tonal domains are visited before its final gestures.
