Epitaph

(2015) – Piano Trio

http://robertpeate.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Epitaph-Piano-Trio-excerpt-R-Peate-online-audio-converter.com_.mp3

This piece is about remembrance, and above all explores various approaches to memory and grief. The music moves between an objective, meditative, even ceremonial character on the one hand; and a more personal, heart-on-sleeve expressiveness on the other. Further retrospection can be heard in musical references to memorial-like pieces such as Britten’s War Requiem, Strauss’s Metamorphosen (itself a reference to the ‘marcia funèbre’ movement of Beethoven’s Symphony No.3) and Messiaen’s Quatuor pour la fin du temps. In some cases musical material was drawn from the idea of engraving a name into a headstone or cenotaph.

Epitaph is dedicated to the memory of the harpist John Jones (1800-1844)
