Millie's Math House Theme and Variations, for solo piano, 7/31/20 version

Hirshleifer, David

(2025)

The charming initial melody of the theme comes from a children’s educational app. I added a response melody, and a return of the initial melody, to create the theme. The variations carry this small musical idea afar, until the piece closes with a dramatic coda.

Lament for Antoniou

Hirshleifer, David

(2025)

The work opens with two emphatic four-note statements. Longer replies follow, all in a mournful mood. A cheerful interlude has the spirit of a folk tune. But soon the mournful theme returns for a modulating journey that includes tense, rapid counterpoint. The work then draws to a desolate close.
