Suite for Solo Violin

Description

Black composer Adolphus Cunningham Hailstork III's compositional style blends musical ideas from both the African American and European traditions.

The publisher's website shares the following program notes for the "Suite for Solo Violin": "Dedicated to Paul Kim. Cast in a formal mold inspired by the Bach partitas, Hailstork’s four-movement Suite for Solo Violin begins with a perky Prelude, followed by a March with a few subtle winks at music from the Prelude. The third movement is a beautiful Melody with slow-fast-slow form, and the Finale incorporates a few remembrances of the previous movements in building a dramatic drive to the finish."
Duration: 11 minutes
