Chimes (Перезвоны): 3. Rubbish

Description

Oboe, Soprano, Alto, Tenor, Bass — Russian composer Valery Gavrilin (b. 1939, Volodga; d. 1999, St. Petersburg) completed his thirteen movement composition Chimes in 1982 and subtitled it Upon Reading V. Shukshyn Miracle Play— Choral Symphony. Throughout the piece one finds the image of an endless road – as a river of life – traveled by generation to generation. Playful and rhythmic, the nonsensical and happy-go-lucky narrative of the fourth movement is enhanced by onomatopoeic text and thick chordal texture.
