Buh-Roke, Damien Geter (2019)
for string orchestra and harpsichord
As you may have guessed, Buh-roke is a modern nod to the Baroque era. Featuring the harpsichord (one of my favorite instruments) the piece borrows techniques from that time, but with a funky twist. Buh-roke loosely explores the technique of fortspinnung, a characteristic of Baroque music that gives the piece a sense of direction. A minuet meets the listener in the contrasting section as throwback to the stylized dance which appeared in many suites and early Classical symphonies. The piece ends as it begins (ABA') which resembles the form of the da capo aria.
