| Program Notes | Turns and Returns is a sort of rhapsody or fantasy in which the composer plays with periodic returns of an easily identifiable thematic element. never presented exactly the same, which alternates with material of differing character and speed. The imagination takes precedence here over any conventional form. The violin shares with the piano in the unfolding of musical continuity, but at times departs from it in extended lyrical and virtuoso gestures. Stylistically, Turns and Returns derives basically from melody, which, as the musicologist Dr. Luis Merino has noted, is combined "with a sense of order and method, which has brought about a slow and cumulative stylistic development in his output," clearly noticeable in this new composition commissioned by Janet Packer and the Pro Violino foundation, and completed in June 2001. Orrego-Salas has always maintained that the disciplines and principles of architecture have been a very important part of his development as a composer. As Gerald Benjamin writes in The New Grove Dictionary 4 Music. "A neo-classical craftsmanship, tempered by free invention, is characteristic of Orrego-Salas's music." |
