Silent Hattie Speaks: The Personal Journal of Senator Hattie Caraway

Front Cover
Bloomsbury Academic, Jul 9, 1979 - Biography & Autobiography - 151 pages
This Sinfionetta contains the basic ingredients of a Symphony, viz. and Allegro, a Scherzo, a slow movement and a final Allegro. These elements are compressed into a one-movement form and the final Allegro is a recapitulation of the first, albeit with considerable variation. There is also a short fugue, for strings alone, between the opening Allegro and the Scherzo, which consolidates the musical ideas used throughout the piece.

This work may be played by a chamber ensemble with a string nonet, for which it was originally written, or with a full orchestral string section.
