María Andreína
in E Major is a Berceuse.
I wrote "María Andreína" for my dearly
loved and beautiful niece when she was a little child. Her
name is María Andreína Bruni Puigbó and
she is the daughter of my older brother Francisco.
María Andreína Bruni has a remarkable musical
talent and she is a very sensitive young girl.
Berceuse is a French word that means lullaby.
The term Berceuse refers to instrumental and also to orchestral
works written in tempo moderato with an accompaniment reminiscent
of the rocking of a cradle.
Many composers have written Berceuse at different periods
in music history. Frederick Chopin and Johannes Brahms are
authors, among others, who have written very famous Berceuse.
Having a very peaceful character and well-defined simple
melodies, the Berceuse always expresses a very sweet feeling.
