Mirror of the Heart (Piano)

DIFFICULTY: 4th+

DURATION: 4'30"

Recorded on: Violet Volume 1 (Brass Band Willebroek)

'Mirror of the Heart' was composed for Belgian Cornet soloist Lode Violet for performances and recordings with the Wallberg Band (CH) and Brass Band Willebroek (B).

The inspiration for the title of the work is taken from a collection of poems by the same name of late American poet Sara Teasdale (1884 - 1933); the centre of which are 54 deeply personal poems which - as a result - remained unpublished until after Teasdale's death.

This work aims to reflect that particularly personal and reflective feel portrayed within the 'heart' of this collection.
