Currently I am writing in a neo-romantically minimalist style. I seek to redefine how time is perceived in music. I use a wide range of musical techniques (secondal harmony, clusters, tonalism, low-contrast color fields) over a vast expanse of time. Most of my works at this time are between an hour and three hours of uninterrupted music.
Allan Kozinn (NY Times, 3/12/02) writes, "Mr. Violette is a Romantic with Minimalist leanings, although his language does not easily fit into either category. His Romanticism, in other words, is evident in his penchant for monumental chord blocks and swirling filigree, but there is also a hefty measure of more contemporary dissonance and angularity. He has adopted the Minimalists’ techniques of repetition and gradual expansion, but since his music is somewhat spikier and less consonant than typical Minimalism, one doesn’t hear it as being of the Minimalist school. That said, there were fleeting allusions to traditional Romantic harmony, and allusions to the music of both Steve Reich and Philip Glass, as well as a section that drew on the rhythms and harmonies of stride piano. Yet this was not simply a compendium of musical styles -- Mr. Violette, a composer-pianist in the tradition of Busoni and Sorabji, had sufficient energy and virtuosity for this marathon."
The New Yorker (3/11/02) writes, "Violette is an unsung maverick among New York composers. Prone to indulge in lush, Lisztian harmonies, he also makes use of blistering dissonance and trancelike repetition; the resulting cyclone of sound often resembles a minimalist update of Messiaen’s mystical keyboard pieces."
