Cançoner 2

(Songbook 2)
A gathering of seven songs for one or more voices and piano, based on texts by Miquel Desclot.
These are very suitable melodies for choral groups formed by singers aged about 10 years on up. There is a broad diversity of technical difficulties from one song to the next from the standpoint of tessitura, phrase length and degree of melodic complexity, but all the songs are conceived for choir singers up to the age of 14 or 15 years. With a clear predominance of unisons, simple polyphonies for two and three voices are finally introduced.
The piano accompaniments are devised for accomplished musicians. They are sometimes complex and seek to make up for the simplicity of the melodies, endowing them with a contrasting and suggestive musical ambience.
