Partita II Through Adams Fall Detail Composition Technique "Shifted Chords"

Stylistically, the work can be classified between neo-romantic and post-modern . Characteristic are the simultaneous use of classical and contemporary techniques in flowing or juxtaposing changes within the works. In addition to the recognizable preference for Bach and Messiaen, “pushed chords” are characteristic, interwoven four- and five-note chords that move in semitone and whole-tone steps while maintaining the voice lead. Particularly clear examples are the “Partita VII (op. 607) Now let's bury the body” (in it the mirror canon in soprano and bass) or the “Partita II (op. 602) Through Adam's Fall ” (in it “A shine near and far “- see music example).
