‘Sunset, originally written as a jazz-style solo for double bass, is inspired by the music of American bassist-composer, Lloyd Goldstein.
Written in ternary form (…A-B-A) starting with a minor third motif that appears twice in several bars of the piece, contrasting the middle section which is played pizzicato, with a few remote chords in the piano accompaniment, allowing a free execution of the soloist, who returns to the initial music, this time played arco, to finish the piece with a repeated motif in the final phrase.
Sunset was written at the end of 7 July 2020, between the afternoon and evening.’ [Luis Guillermo Pérez]
Sunset is also available with guitar accompaniment.
This edition includes piano accompaniments for both solo and orchestral tunings, but can also be played without accompaniment.
