The Beauty of Sadness is a piece based of the sympathetic ringing of a Sostenuto Pedal held minor chord that haunts the major chord being played. The flute, clarinet and cello also mimic this effect on the piano and back it up. It is a metaphor for an unescapable sadness.
Performed by the Encompass Ensemble on the 22nd of May 2019 at AMATA, Penryn, Cornwall
