Second Prize Winner, 2026 Bach International Music Competition (Zeit ohne Zeit)
Three Pieces on Fragility is a solo piano triptych exploring the breakdown of structure, the weight of quiet trust, and the quiet refusal to halt after rupture. Moving from the erratic mechanical failure of a clock (Zeit ohne Zeit) through an unannounced accumulation of warmth (Das Gewicht des Vertrauens), the suite culminates in Morgen—a gentle unfolding into a new day that suggests continuation, even without complete resolution[cite: 3].
Movements:
I. Zeit ohne Zeit (Time without Time) — On the failure of a clock[cite: 3]
II. Das Gewicht des Vertrauens (For a Warm Breath) — On trust and warmth[cite: 3]
III. Morgen (Morning) — A gentle unfolding into continuation[cite: 3]
For Solo Piano | Duration: approx. 4:50
Difficulty: Advanced
Prelude No. 1 explores a raw, volatile internal conflict—contrasting moments of quiet, searching introspection with sharp, violent emotional outbursts. Driven by erratic dynamic shifts, relentless triplet engines, and dense cluster harmonies, the music navigates a desperate struggle for control before culminating in a stark, delicate final realization.
"Play like you have something inside of you dying to get out." — m. 87
