Chroset I: Microns

 
Chroset I: Microns
Microns is a piece written as a studies of the microstructures and silence. The inspiration of the piece came during Krzysztof Kieslowski year in 2011 and reflection on his movies. The piece Chroset I: Microns is divided into 17 miniatures. It is a kind of  concertino, consisting of three duets, three solos and eleven trios. The  structure of the piece is derived from a Baroque approach to timing using  magic letters (S, C, V, X, L) as pedal notes underlying in the scales used in each  miniature. The piece is a kind of study of the very short cyclic works inspired  by haikus poems and the life of the microworlds. The longest movement is the  final march lasting about 2 minutes. It is recommended to keep breaks but not  so long rest between the non attaca movements. The order of the counterpoints  is obligatory but the intermezzi (solos or duets) should be performed in any  orderer chosen by the players on the rehearsal.
