An Arch of Miniatures 钢琴三重奏

第一乐章和第五乐章使用相同的旋律素材，但速度和节奏却截然不同。第二乐章和第四乐章也使用了自己的同类素材，首先以横向二部曲式出现，如同木管乐器的对话，然后以纵向和声迭加，如同钢琴独奏。第三乐章是拱门的基石，其挑战在于创作一首没有明示和声，只有暗示和声的单线作品。因此，通过在单个长线条中变换色彩和音区，作品才得以丰富多彩。动机材料取自其他乐章"

原文简介:
The first and fifth movements use the same melodic material using very different speeds and rhythms. The second and fourth movements also use their own set of like material, first appearing as a horizontal two part invention like a conversation for the woodwinds, and then stacked in vertical harmonies as a piano solo. In the third movement, the keystone of the arch, the challenge was to compose a single-line work with no harmony stated, only perhaps implied. Thus the variety is gained by changing the colorations and registers within a single long line. The motivic material is drawn from within the other movements.
