Product Description

A Alva Vidal Capóm
Alva (2006, revised in 2023) for Solo Violin [ca. 15']
  1. Alvorecer / Dawn

Première: 29-IV-2011. CCF Auditorium, Bandung (Indonesia). Int.: Eya Grimonia.

Even the simplest things need a solid internal structure that supports their discourse and transcends it.
 
This work was a birthday present to an 11-year-old girl who was born on the 11th of the month 11, and is built on her onomastic numbers [4, 5, 5] which generate the harmonic and melodic basis together with those of the composer [9, 7], those of her mother [6, 5, 7] and those of her brother [5, 5, 5]. Thus, the first movement, Dawn, is structured in 11 sections (it is a gift from the age of 11) of 4+5+5 bars. Reading has 9 sections of 4 bars and the melodic-harmonic sequence is formed by the complex [4, 5, 6, 7, 9], so we all find ourselves involved in the reading plot. The third movement, Slowly, in 5/4, a reference to the names of the girl and her brother, has 3 sections of 5+5+5 bars; the brothers turning round endlessly while the girl thinks about the turns that the world takes. The final Apotheosis, in the rhythm of 9+7 eighths, has two parts: in the first one there are 3 sections of 6+5+7 (the mother) opening the way to the 3 sections of the second part which represent the effervescence in the dawn of life (4+5+5).

The most beautiful expression of mathematics, the language of the most intimate emotions, the essence of our own existence, is in the music.

Até mesmo as coisas mais simples precisam duma sólida estrutura interna que sustente o seu discurso e o transcenda.

Esta obra foi prenda de anos a uma menina de 11 anos que nasceu no dia 11 do mês 11, e está construída sobre os seus números onomásticos [4, 5, 5] que geram a base harmónica e melódica em conjunto com os do compositor [9, 7], os da sua mãe [6, 5, 7] e os do seu irmão [5, 5, 5]. Assim, o primeiro andamento, Alvorejar, está estruturado em 11 secções (é prenda dos 11 anos) de 4+5+5 compassos. Leitura tem 9 secções de 4 compassos e a sequência melódico-harmónica está conformada pelo complexo [4, 5, 6, 7, 9], assim, todos nos vemos envolvidos na trama leitora. O terceiro andamento, Vagar, em 5/4, referência aos nomes da menina e do seu irmão, tem 3 secções de 5+5+5 compassos; os do irmão a dar voltas sem fim enquanto a menina pensa nas voltas que dá o mundo. A Apoteose final, no ritmo de 9+7 oitavos, tem duas partes: na primeira há 3 secções de 6+5+7 (a mãe) abrindo o caminho às 3 secções da segunda parte que representam a efervescência na alva da vida (4+5+5).

A expressão mais formosa da matemática, a linguagem das emoções mais íntimas, a essência da nossa própria existência, está na música.
