"JAVANESE TWINKLE" for 2 pianos, 8 hands
by Michael Gunadi Widjaja
The TWINKLE TWINKLE LITTLE STAR is one of the most famous songs for many decades. Its origin is a lullaby. A Nursery song with the lyric of old English poem, that created by Jane Taylor.
The melody of this piece is stepping in common interval. So children can relatively easy to sing out this piece. The harmony structure seems like giving some kind of “open space” to being explored. This may be one cause of why the twinkles composed in many different forms of music, include as a lesson song.
Jelia, my wive, asked me to make an attractive and unique arrangement for this twinkle that contains love, passion, and true friendship among her Suzuki colleagues. So I choose a popular music format for theme structure with kind of dissonant chordal. It expresses the meaning that friendship is not always going to be smooth.
In the second movement, I used one of the early Jazz form “RAGTIME” as a manifestation of dynamic relation. In Jazz someone can share the musical passion to each other in jam session, just like friendship.
In the third movement, there is Dang Dut. Focused on the fact that it may contain many tradition elements. As if to remind that friendship never be loose from its cultural root. In the other side, Dang Dut is sexy, erotic, and passionate. In other words, this is Jelia’s Twinkle, that has a lot of side – still has the virtuosity in true friendship, but also very passionate and exciting.
Format: Piano Ensembles - 2 pianos, 8 hands
