Programme Note
Song Without Words was commissioned by BBC Radio 3 and premiered by Andrew Zolinsky on the radio in 2009.
Song Without Words was commissioned by BBC Radio 3 in 2009 for the bicentenary of Mendelssohn's birth and premiered by Andrew Zolinsky on BBC Radio 3. My piece is very closely modeled on Mendelssohn's Op.102 no.2: I spent many hours playing through all of them and the musical lines and phrasing of this Song really struck me. I tried to emulate Mendelssohn's musical line, which seems to stretch in one phrase over the entire piece, in my own piece.
