I. Scherzo 1 (Allegro molto risoluto)
II. Scherzo 2 (Allegro moderato)
III. Lullaby (Andante, un poco lento)
IV. Scherzo 3 (Molto vivace)
Most of this material was written over the Christmas period of 2016. Each of
the Scherzos features a brace of ideas. The first contrasts movement in
fourths with a more insinuating second idea characterised by a rising fifth.
The Jewish-sounding Second Scherzo is a dance like movement with a more rhetorical (even cantorial) middle section whilst principal aspects of the final section are a fugato passage and a march. The lullaby is predicated as a Sicilliano. Further description would be otiose as the piece is designed by the composer to expand a limited repertoire and, as the subtitle makes clear, to divert.
Note to the soloist: straight and cup mutes are required for this piece.
