Description
Death, Taxes, and Tristan
Chamber Trio
Jon Grier
For Violin, Cello and Piano. This is a tongue-in-cheek paraphrase of Richard Wagner’s famous and influential Prelude to the 1859 opera Tristan and Isolde, the musical consequences of which are as unavoidable as death and taxes. The motivic materials, as well as a little of the harmony, are derived (stolen, that is) from Wagner’s Prelude; most of the harmony is jazz. Jon Grier’s music often contains clever, humorous moments.
