Kevin Volans' L'Africaine for Piano solo. Duration: 22 minutes. Composers Note: Most of the piano music I have written has focussed on a number of 20th century musical concerns: withcomplex rhythmic patterning a- and poly-tonality multiple layering of parts on occasion introducing different tone colours (like playing inside the instrument or electronic modulation) ' but above all resonance. The development of the piano in 19th century with its increased size pitch and dynamic range led above all to an instrument capable of rich and full resonance that could rival even an orchestra. All centred around thepedal ' in Anton Rubinstein's words: The soul of the piano. This time I thought it would be interesting to write a piece which pays no attention to this tradition; to write a piece from the point of view ofsome African compositional methods and ways of patterning ' mainly interlocking parts which result in shifting downbeats. For a large part of the piece I treat the left and right hands as two complementaryperformers. So hardly any pedal no concerns with contemporary harmony style structure or technology. I did slip in a slightly concealed reference to Debussy's L'Isle Joyeuse however. The pieceis roughly 22 minutes long in three sections and the title is a slightly tongue-in-cheek reference to Couperin.
