Product Description

Lacerta quietly basks amongst the members of the Perseid Family of Constellations in the northern hemisphere. Originally called Stellio by the Polish astronomer Johannes Hevelius, it is a small faint constellation that represents a starred agama, a grey lizard with yellow or orange spots on its back or side that can change colour slightly in response to temperature or mood. This piece is built on a scale devised by Messiaen which proceeds in a pattern of tone then two semitones, and opens and closes with his Chord of Resonance built on this third mode of limited transposition. Delicate staccato contrasting with legato playing requires a sensitive touch. From 88 Constellations a collection by Heather Cattanach featuring one piece of piano music for each of the 88 constellations (to match the number of keys on a standard piano). Intermediate Piano Solo. Performance Time 1 1/2 minutes. 2 pages. (General Instructional, Modern, 21st Century, Repertoire, Recital)
