Bach Lute Suite In E Minor - Marimba Literature Library
Vic Firth Artist Yukiko Nakamura performs Lute Suite In E Minor by J.S. Bach ABOUT THE PIECE: The Lute Suite in E Minor is J.S. Bach’s earliest of the lute suites. Though this is still a matter of debate, it’s highly likely that it was originally composed for the Lautenwerk (lute-harpsichord), a gut-strung keyboard designed to imitate the timbre of the lute. The form of the piece is based on that of the traditional Froberger keyboard suite model: Allemande, Courante, Sarabande, Gigue. Bach added two additional movements to the form: a Prelude consisting of a slow section imitating a French overture form and a fast fugal section, and a Bourrée which is one of the most well-known movement among all his works for the lute.

Julián Fueyo's "Hurakán"
"Hurakán", composed by Julián Fueyo '23MM, was performed during the New Music New Haven concert on October 6, 2022. Featured performers: Charlie Lovell Jones '24MMA, violin 1 Ilana Zaks '22MM '23MMA, violin 2 Emily Rekrut-Pressey, '23MM viola Kyeong Eun Kim '24MM, cello Hyeonjeong Choi '23MM, flute Amer Hasan '24MM, clarinet Yukiko Nakamura '23MMA, vibraphone Hyojin Shin '22MM '23MMA, piano Samuel Hollister '18BA '28DMA, conductor Program notes from the composer: Hurakán is a triptych inspired by the pre- Hispanic god of hurricanes called Hurakán, and it explores the three main stages that storms undergo, namely evaporation, condensation, and precipitation. I was particularly interested in exploring both the symbolic associations of each stage — as depicted in pre-Hispanic myth and visual art (ex. image on the cover) —as well as the environmental processes explained by science, hence the titles of the movements: I. Ascension, II. Color crystallization, III. Prismatic precipitation. To this end, the first movement features a series of ascending motives. The second movement showcases a vibraphone solo and a series of riffs clashing into each other. Lastly, the third movement explores color and mechanics in an elusive texture akin to liquid crystals.
