Rahilia Hasanova

for piano

ca. 48'00"

 

 

Cheshma (alternate spelling is Cheshme) is a cycle of 12 preludes for solo piano. Cheshme means a spring - an unearthed mineral water, cold and fresh, with many health benefits. At the same time Cheshme is the representation of the multilayered Azerbaijani traditional music full of emotions, beautiful melodies, unrepeatable rhythmical patterns. Creating this piano cycle I was inspired by perfectness of the nature and music of my country.

 

The subtitle for this piece is "The Spring."
