Description:
Chicharra was born out of a love for syncopated music that makes one move and dance. A rhythmic motive initiated by the viola and cello sections starts the diabolical journey of dance and lyricism. The syncopated, driving rhythms initiated by the low strings are contrasted by lyrical lines played in the violin and viola sections. A contrasting, lyrical B section, in 6/8, almost waltz-like, shows a softer side of this dance journey. Various tango elements are also found in this piece such as special effects like the glissandi in the cello section, and the chicharra played by the violins. The chicharra should be played behind the bridge on the D string with extra finger weight, very close to the tailpiece - this sound imitates the chicharra or cricket!
