In Memoriam Olivier Messiaen - Piano","description":"\u003ch3\u003eSummary of This Score\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eCloches d'adieu, et un sourire...\u003c\/i\u003eis set in a very particular context: shortly after the passing of Olivier Messiaen, the German magazine \u003ci\u003eMusiktexte\u003c\/i\u003egathered texts and short pieces in tribute to the composer. It is within this framework that Tristan Murail conceived this miniature for piano, as a musical greeting that is both sober, sensitive, and deeply meaningful.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWithout seeking spectacular effects, the piece works with memory and echo. Murail reprises certain emblematic traits from a youthful work by Messiaen, the prelude \u003ci\u003eCloches d'angoisse et larmes d'adieu\u003c\/i\u003e: one finds there a way of shaping the discourse, and especially a striking recall in the final three notes, a true \"farewell\" inscribed in the conclusion. This lineage is not a decorative quotation but a gesture of transmission, where the short form becomes a vehicle of intensity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe piano writing highlights bell-like sonorities, a motif Murail mentions as present in many of his personal works. These resonances find their counterpoint in luminous harmonics and clusters of chords with \"smiling\" colors. The balance between density and clarity, between resonance and attack, makes it a particularly evocative contemporary score, demanding a refined listening to timbre and pedal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor the pianist, this piece is an excellent opportunity to work on sound projection, sustaining resonances, and managing harmonic layers, while integrating a short yet character-rich work. In recital, it can serve as a poetic interlude, a nod to Messiaen, or a delicate conclusion around the idea of a farewell transfigured into a smile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e@media(max-width:632px){table[data-wb-spec]{display:grid;grid-template-columns:minmax(0,1fr) minmax(0,1fr)}table[data-wb-spec] colgroup{display:none}table[data-wb-spec] tbody,table[data-wb-spec] tr{display:contents}table[data-wb-spec] td{display:block;overflow-wrap:anywhere;grid-row:var(--wb-l);background-color:var(--wb-lb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[data-r]{grid-row:var(--wb-r);background-color:var(--wb-rb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[colspan=\"2\"]{grid-column:1\/-1}table[data-wb-spec] td:empty{display:none}}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:2;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMusical Genre\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eClassical\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eSheet music\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:1;--wb-r:4;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComposer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eMURAIL Tristan\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDifficulty\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e5\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:2;--wb-r:5;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstrumentation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003ePiano\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e6\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:3;--wb-r:6;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenre\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eContemporary Score\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYear of Publication\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e1992\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Lemoine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54357786689811,"sku":"71434","price":14.8,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/8e4e19189c1b9f718b55c0c5050e04ab9323d2d2_9790230975278.jpg?v=1789465975","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/lemoine-murail-tristan-farewell-bells-and-a-smile-in-memoriam-olivier-messiaen-piano-71434","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
