Alissa Firsova Lune Rouge played by Alissa Firsova

LUNE ROUGE op13 for piano solo (2005) by Alissa Firsova "Lune Rouge" was named after a tea I drank at "Marriages Freres" in Paris. It also illustrates some photographs made in Eastbourne, of a red moon, and sea views. 2 rings made from my initials: AF, open the piece. A harmonic-world made up of my parents' initials: EF and DS, joins. This material develops until "Lune Rouge" appears in a B-flat tonal-world.
