Program Notes
This music is inspired by images of diamonds. There are four sections, each with a central image: 1. Cutting Diamonds angular, constructing chords of fourths a "splitting" motive of a semi-tone repeated "hammering" accents on the downbeats glistening D Major triads at the cadences 2. Transparent Diamonds a sparse texture, allowing the light to shine through cascading patterns in the winds tremoli and trills in the strings waves of sound 3. Dancing Diamonds Clarinet and Percussion the joy and sparkle of diamonds "dots of energy" from the Viola and Piccolo everyone joins in the dance, which grows into - 4. Jubilant Diamonds the return of the opening materials (4ths) now generating a melody in the brass rapid figures in the strings and winds create a flurry of celebration and excitement the "Transparent Diamonds" theme returns, forcefully, leading to the final statement of the "splitting" motive (semitones, accented)
