Beschreibung
Mirum, a Latin term used to indicate something wonderful or surprising, is well suited to presenting this composition, which has a festive and celebratory character.
The idea of writing Mirum was born during a celebratory event in which the author took part: he began to imagine a musical accompaniment that could enhance its solemnity and importance, giving it a sense of uniqueness and completeness, as only music can do.
Technically, the piece follows an ABA scheme. The initial part (A), characterized by the driving rhythm and smoothness of the compound tempo (12/8), features the thematic predominance of the trumpets which, balanced by the interjections of the woodwinds, introduce the listener to a festive and exhilarating atmosphere.
After the exposition of the theme, new melodic and timbral elements act as a development bridge leading to the second section (B), which is in common tempo (4/4) and decidedly more calm and solemn, almost martial; this is the most distinctly celebratory moment of the composition. The “choral” theme entrusted to the warm timbre of the woodwinds, soon turns into a brass fanfare interspersed with motifs that refer to the first part: this short episode is the prelude to the second exposition of the celebratory theme in which brass instruments become the protagonists, while the woodwinds enrich everything with scales and melodic runs. Finally, the reprise of the A section still reserves some surprises before the conclusion of the composition.
Mirum lends itself well to being performed at the opening of a concert or as an accompaniment to a celebratory event.
