Description

- Serenade/Toccata (1996)
- Interlude (1999)
- Tango Fantastique (1999)
Serenade/Toccata has as its principal idea a lyrical theme, reflecting the feeling of a serenade. The Interlude, a free, meditative section, serves as a bridge between the outer movements. Tango Fantastique is by turns rhythmic and percussive, lyrical and expressive, quiet and meditative, and reflects the many moods of the new century (it was composed between 1996 & 1999).
Serenade/Toccata is also available as a separate edition. See 490-01079
