In many ways my composition output is biographical. As I am completing this work, I am also recording my Matthew Locke CD, so I have many inspirations from his work, that will continue on to my Eb symphony, but the dance movements (the variations) are clearly inspired by the other music I am playing.
This work is not an enigma variation; it is base on a snapshot of music from my Chamber Symphony no. 10.
In listening to Bach Cantatas, there are a few that sound like Bach just started right in the middle of the piece, maybe the first page was lost, but I don’t think so. It just stared up in a random place. The first part after in the initial 8 bar quote, is then a development of that, a fugue and mini-variations.
Being that the two string instruments are a little unusual to the in this ensemble, the first real variation features them, modeled after a medieval Estampe.
The big variation movements then are:
III. a fast Sarabande
IV. Pavane
V. Finale
VI. Jigg
