Bellesguard
(1900-1909), with its pointed parapets and high tower, is
Gaudí's
tribute to Catalonia’s great medieval past. Here are none of the
Moorish elements, Art Nouveau adaptations, or extravagant colors of his
other work, only a simple, yet imposing, structure. My composition
consists of three six-bar melodic phrases to be played in unison or as
counterpoint.
