François Servais, Souvenir de Spa. Fantaisie, opus 2 Urtext Edition by Yuriy Leonovich – 2022 cello & piano – 13 + 20 p.
Souvenir de Spa, like many other fantasies by Servais, is constructed in variation form. The theme seems to be Servais’s own but has thematic and rhythmic similarities to Beethoven’s Septet, Op. 20, opening movement.
The work begins with an introduction in A minor, followed by a cadenza and an accompanied recitative. The A-major theme is a rather lengthy 48 bars. Since the theme is on a longer side, Servais opts for a four-variation model. The first two variations are harmonically similar to the theme. The third variation is slow, lyrical, and chromatic, almost Wagnerian in places. The final variation is rhythmically identical to the finale from the Grande Fantaisie sur des motifs de l’Opéra le Barbier de Séville de Rossini, which is based on “La testa vi gira.”
