Written as part of the ?Voix nouvelles? programme at Fondation Royaumont, Limun is dedicated to Barbara Maurer and Melise Mellinger of ensemble recherche who gave the first performance and have since performed it around Europe.
"Limun (lemon in Arabic) is a plant that has the ability to bloom continuously, so you can see blossoms, green fruits and ripe fruits on the same tree at the same time. The title is symbolic. It does not describe the piece, but rather reflects the period of my life of which the piece was written." - Clara Iannotta

This six-minute madrigal setting was commissioned by the renowned Hanover Girls' Choir and composed on the basis of one of Rainer Maria Rilke's profound poems. It begins as a thanksgiving prayer: for the summer, for the autumn fruits. But the first winds bring along the fear of the cold and loneliness of winter: 'Whoever is alone now will remain so for a long time, will stay up, read, write long letters...'. Eotvos lets the poem unfold twice, each time in a different way, thus intensifying the reflection. The tonality is treated freely, and the choral setting extends the underlying five-part texture, in which the choir's soloists create striking echoes, up to eight-part passages.

Whether for teaching or recital, enjoy violin musings on the potato, the blueberry, the orange, radish, and zucchini, and (yes) the ubiquitous broccoli. The violin part is easy to intermediate-level, and the piano accompaniments are suitable for teacher or a fellow student of intermediate skills.
