Description: | So, now it has happened. I have composed an organ trio and no one needs to break their fingers anymore, it's very simple: the leading voice is in the right hand, the accompanying voice in the left and the bass in the? That's right - in the pedal, Hmm..... very simple? Well, stupidly, the 3 voices are equally justified as in Bach's compositions ..... Well, the pedal is then quite difficult after all, whereby I have tried not to use any large interval jumps, which I must admit I have not always succeeded in doing.
In terms of the structure of the piece, it is a mixture of a dance movement and a sonata form. The exposition is the first part and is repeated. The second part is the development and begins with the inversion of the theme, albeit in a distant B flat minor, which is more or less the minor form of the subdominant to F major - so it's no wonder that the listener grabs his forehead - well, I've noticed that too and end up back in D minor, while the recapitulation takes up the theme of the dance movement again and the piece ends in a short coda .....
When it comes to tempo, I have had a change of heart and am considerably slower than the 104 BPM called for in the score at hand. I am very curious to see whether one or two listeners will summon up all their courage and approach the work. I myself played the 3 parts live individually with a metronome, increased the tempo and distributed it between the manuals/pedals. At least individually it is not difficult, but - I admit it - the parallel interplay of all 3 voices really demands something.
But now enjoy the next 3 1/2 minutes.
