Aw shucks, I was learning so much about music hosting.
I loved some passages very much. I'm afraid my attraction to that slightly off-kilter composition is very selective and completely unreasonable. In the first section there were a few passages which sounded gratingly sequenced. Somehow mechanical and static. Seeing that this impression changed over the piece, I assume that this was done by design. Though especially that same section held a few passages which really touched a chord somewhere. :) The dark, unpretentious mood of all three pieces sits very well with me.
Thanks a lot, J. As a keyboardist you undoubtedly hear these things quite differently than I do. Above all, I'm utterly non-observant regarding playability, which allows the part writing to go where it will, i.e. with no regard for what human hands can actually play. I am self-consciously following the lead of Conlon Nancarrow here, or Bach in parts of the Kunst der Fuge. As the note on the SC site states, it's "sequenced music for a virtual piano", which is to say it's two steps removed from reality. Somewhat like myself.
FWIW, I like Desolation #3 the best, but the longer second Desolation introduces a number of interesting composition details, things I'll likely use in more original work.
Thank you for sharing!
As always, thank you for listening. Your ears are appreciated. :)
Best wishes, Jeanette
