Valse Kinetic
Valse Kinetic, Haralabos [Harry] Stafylakis (2022)
for chamber orchestra
Brahms’s obsession with the music of J.S. Bach was of particular interest to me. I was struck by this linking of minds when I read that, later in Brahms’s life, his first daily act upon waking in his apartment in Vienna was to sit at his piano and play through Bach’s Well-Tempered Clavier. In Valse Kinetic, I sought to capture something of that atmosphere: an orchestral work that channels Brahms channeling Bach. With the flowing ternary feel of the waltz as its musical starting point, the piece taps into Brahms’s, Bach’s, and my shared love for highly propulsive, fluid, complexly interlocking music.
