Kupferman, M :: Chaconne Sonata
Kupferman, M
Kupferman s 1993 Chaconne Sonata, for flute and piano, is a large-scale, four movement work commissioned by Laurel Ann Maurer and composed especially for her. Although it is only the first movement that is firmly cast in the traditional chaconne design, the remaining three movements clearly reflect an ongoing setting of those essential harmonic and motivic energies drawn from the opening four bar phrase of the chaconne.
The piano and flute roles are conceived as complex, passionate and totally complete protagonists governing an enormous 'sound canvas.' The relentless basso ostinato of the opening Lento espressivo provides a truly granitic foundation to the continuous dialogue of variation between the flute and the right hand of the piano. The richness of the evolving textures for both instruments and the intensity of the harmonies they generate set the stage for a profound drama.
