Piano piece in two movements based on a poem by Friedrich Holderlin
Composer: Eduard Putz
Format: Softcover
Instrumentation: Piano
Eduard Putz was inspired to write this piano piece by the poem 'Halfte des Lebens' by Friedrich Holderlin. In this composition, the two thoughts of the fullness of life (youth) and the expectation of death (age) provoke contrasting musical emotions and structures. Consequently, the two-movement structure of the composition is caused by the opposing nature of Holderlin's two verses. The music carries great intensity and expressiveness, yet is never merely illustrative or programme music. An important contribution to 20th-century piano music.
