Bagatelles

by Christian Holmqvist

for piano

Description

In this work I set myself a challenge: I wanted to write piano pieces that would fit on one page only. Quite soon it was obvious that the music mostly preferred to ignore this concept (and after the first performance I anyway slightly expanded some of the pieces). What remained completely unchanged, though, was the basic idea of a collection of brief pieces focusing on a certain image and/or thought.
