Reimagining Schubert on YouTube

2/4/2016

The Composer's Voice has uploaded a video of the concert on Broadway on 24 October 2015 when Stephen Porter played my piece, Leise flehen die Lieder for piano. Mine was the first in a series of fifteen one-minute pieces related to Schubert.
​The video is on YouTube.
The programme note I wrote for the occasion was:
Although it may not sound like it, 'Leise flehen die Lieder' (The songs beckon softly) is derived from Schubert's songs. An accompanying figure from one, characteristic motifs from several places, harmonies from others.  These are worked up into a repeating form like those Schubert used.
