Pounding

POUNDING - for piano

The principal material of this piece is a low-register percussive cluster which ‘pounds’ its way through the three sections of this composition. The music develops in leaps and bounds surprising the listener with dynamic contrasts and disparity between melodic and rhythmic fragments. ‘Pounding’ was originally scored for orchestra and awarded first prize by the EuroMed Composers Competition in December 2007 with Profs. Edward Gregson as chairman of the jury. ‘Pounding’ was premiered by the Malta Philharmonic Orchestra under the direction of Profs. Michael Laus.
