Figments and Fragments (2010). Lawrence Dillon /a strange synthesis/

A pondering Schumann via Wikipedia

Composer and blogger Lawrence Dillon admits he talks about form too much:

The form of Figments and Fragments is a case in point.  It takes the sequential processes found in early Schumann – collections of character pieces – and gradually expands the cracks between the pieces into an increasingly hectic and disturbed narrative.  In other words, the form of the piece is a strange synthesis of organic and sequential principles.

I know, I know: zzzzzzzzz.  Have a nice nap.

Figments and Fragments is part of his Schumann Trilogy.
