About This Item
Composed in 2020, Miniature is a compilation of 27 short musical pieces for solo harp. Each is a fragment which tells a personal story inspired by an emotion, reflection, childhood memory or emblematic place for Francesca - from her past in Italy or her present in the Basque Country. The music evokes both images and emotions related to the places they represent. These impressions and emotions are invoked through the use of rhythm, by which the individual nature of each piece reveals itself. Minature is thematically held together as a set by the concept of the flow and passage of time. The Poetic Reflections are written by Juan Kruz Igerabide Sarasola, inspired by the music. Each correlates to a specific 'minature', sharing it's title and offering a visual context to it. Album Tracks 1. No. 1. Meanders of Time The Wait [03 24] 2. No. 2. Meanders of Time Nature [02 31] 3.
