Composed by JohnWillard Utuk. This edition: pdf, streaming. 21st Century, Contemporary, Contest, Festival, Film/TV, Video Game. Score. 8 pages. JohnWillard Utuk #1267714. Published by JohnWillard Utuk (A0.1703863).
The first movement of The Etherea Suite, Volume 2, Kharnek: Soldier of Komor (Kharnek's Theme) is an intense modern piano solo that incorporates a large keyboard sound, video game-meets-cinematic melody, and a character battling with inner conflict.
This solo explores musical concepts like octaves, voicing, dynamic extremes, contrast, intricate left-hand passagework, attention to musical storytelling, and musical (and physical!) pacing. The piece has a musical cryptogram hidden within it, spelling out Kharnek's name as a main melody.
Inspired by the new adult sci-fi/fantasy fiction book, Trials of the Innermost by Jonathan Fuller & Kristina Kelly, this movement is part of the second suite of piano solos representing the next six main characters of the book.
Piano technique challenges include keeping an expressive, yet not overly harsh left hand, creating musical tension and contrast with the use of the written dynamics, and mastering the musical narrative of the piece overall. The “B” section provides a nice relief from the somber energy, where sensitivity can be applied.
Average Performance Time 6:30. A great technical, loud movement, that allows for varied dynamic expression and virtuosity. Recommended for advanced students, and those needing supplements to left-hand centered repertoire.
