*Marina's notes on Gargoyles:
"Lowell Liebermann has long been intrigued by the strange, ornate
carvings called gargoyles, embellishing many old churches and palaces.
Liebermann's Gargoyles (1985) project a corresponding eeriness and sense of
mystery, suggestive of the florid and macabre.
The first etude is a feverish study in double notes, wide leaps, and quickly
changing dynamics and articulation. The second features legato octaves above an
ostinato bass. The third is a study in legato melody accompanied by a gently
undulating figuration. The wild tarantella deliriously concluding the set is a
diabolical endurance test."
