Composed by David Fraser. This edition: pdf, streaming. 20th Century, 21st Century, Classical, Romantic Period. Score. 42 pages. David Fraser #968418. Published by David Fraser (A0.1384057).
David Fraser wrote the first 41 measures of ‘Rhapsody No. 1’ in 1997. When playing the original 41 measures of this piece in 2019, Fraser noted that the music had some resemblance to works by Sergei Rachmaninoff. This encouraged Fraser to compose the remainder of this piece in a manner reminiscent of Rachmaninoff and, consequently, author a suite of solo piano pieces as homages to some of his favorite composers.
In the “Adagio” section, which starts on Page 3, Fraser uses an inversion of a small melody from Rachmaninoff’s Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini, Op. 4, variation 18. Specifically, Rachmaninoff’s piece starting with the D-flat of beat one in measure 9 going backwards to measure 8 to the C, B-flat, A-flat and B-flat of the fourth beat is replicated in Fraser’s piece in the pickup to beat three through beat four of measure 10, however with rhythmic changes. In addition, there are some harmonic similarities between Rachmaninoff and Fraser’s music.
This is the full version of the Rhapsody which is the first piece from 'Hommages: Suite pour le Piano'. 45 pages. ISMN 979-0-800277-00-9.
