Two Sarabandes

About this work

The sarabandes place their weight in the centre of the bar, but that stress must not become a stop. Lines continue to breathe above the slow dance, and ornaments extend the song rather than decorate it.

Isolate the outer voices to hear the harmonic direction. Then add the inner notes while retaining the same trajectory; each chord has a hierarchy, not uniform weight.

Pedal needs to follow changes of harmony sparingly. Leave enough silence between selected phrases for the return to retain gravity without becoming heavy.
