Memories

There comes a time in life when your parents have passed on. What we are left with is the memories of their love, guidance, support, and the happy times together. Last August when my mum sadly passed away, I wrote an Elegy as part of my grieving. However, as a family we had happy times together and it seemed only right to compose a work which would celebrate this. So, I added a first and last movement to create a short concertino. The movements are: Prelude: Peter John Connell: The Cheeky Chap Elegy: Mavis June Connell (Time To Remember) Rondo: Family Fun (Adrian Connell) Performance note The piece can be performed with orchestral as well as piano accompaniment. The piano version is also the piano reduction. There are also versions of the work for viola and piano (E.D. 88836) and for bassoon and piano (E.D. 88837). These can also be performed with orchestral accompaniment using the set of parts of this version.
