Landforms by Sofia Marita

Score

Piano solo, c.8'00
Two movements.  Compositionally it is a series of clusters using spiral cluster harmonic launguage.  These clusters weave around without a beginning or an end, and by using this concept the composer is exploring the creation of space within the score - "literal space" involving horizontal time and "created space" involving vertical time.

Meditation by Sofia Marita

Piano solo, c.6'30
Written in response to an excerpt from the poem Little Gidding by T S Eliot.  The work explores the union of opposites, and in a spiritual sense is representative of the archetypal healing journey of the soul.

Swinging by Sofia Marita

Score

Piano solo, c.3'00
Composed for Antonietta Loffredo's "Childhood in Music" project.
The piece represents a child on a swing seen as a symbol of childhood freedom, drifting into a realm of self absorption and fascination with the shifting changing world around, the wind in the hair, the sun in the eyes, flying.  Composed 2010.
Recorded by Antonietta Loffredo in Childhood in Music, Wirr042 available online.		 Download samples

Through It by Sofia Marita

Score

Piano solo, c.8'00
Inspired by an Aboriginal artwork by a Darug woman.  Discords are dotted like paint, constant juxtapositions of sound contrast ethereality, and layers of chaos expand into purit; a cycle of becoming.
