The Pieces on Fragility

Three Pieces on Fragility, Op. 1 for Solo Piano

Duration: approx. 8:00

Award: Second Prize Winner, 2026 Bach International Music Competition (Zeit ohne Zeit)

Three Pieces on Fragility is a solo piano triptych exploring the breakdown of structure, the weight of quiet trust, and the quiet refusal to halt after rupture. Moving from the erratic mechanical failure of a clock through an unannounced accumulation of warmth, the suite culminates in Morgen—a gentle unfolding into a new day that suggests continuation, even without complete resolution.

Movements:

I. Zeit ohne Zeit (Time without Time) — On the failure of a clock

II. Das Gewicht des Vertrauens (For a Warm Breath) — On trust and warmth

III. Morgen (Morning) — A gentle unfolding into continuation
