Essai

La forme parle

There are two reasons to explain the title of this oncert. Each of the works that we offer is personalized at this level by a form uncommon. Second reason: there is an allusion to one of "Scenes of children" by Robert Schumann, the poet speaks. It is argued that the authors claim here, as a poetic sensibility.

How can it form about? An example: the last of Advent cantata by Johann Sebastian Bach. One of the most significant cases the form of the cantata is his harmonic, then journey to sensitive ears of the faithful. The cantata starts in minor symbol of darkness before the birth of the Savior. It ends in major symbol of redemption by the advent of Jesus Christ.
