Description

Memento Mori was composed in May 2018 and is slow and reflective, expressing an atmospheric and evocative sound world. The solo line is simple and sustained, with a gently moving accompaniment which reflects the mood of the piece. Memento Mori is dedicated to the master luthier, Martin Penning, who was present for the premiere. Although composed with organ accompaniment (manuals), it works equally well with piano or harp and the edition includes two solo bass parts, one for orchestral and one for solo tuning. Memento Mori was premiered by David Heyes (double bass) and Nick Tall (organ) at East Harptree Parish Church (Somerset, UK) on Saturday 9 June 2018. It received its Mexican premiere on 23 August 2018 by Marco Antonio Quinones Martinez (double bass) and Patricia Miravete (piano).
