For: Violin and Piano

A three-movement suite with significant technical challenges. Moves across the terrain from lightheartedness to contemplative .

This is a realization the piece, as we wait for a full performance

  • You’re It - a little game of musical tag in which the violin and piano chase one another, while playing largely independent music. They finally come together for one brief jazzy passage.

  • Priority Thread - an active movement in which the violin and piano continually change roles—one leading and one supporting. Listeners who’ve spent time in the computer world will understand the name

  • A Moment for Mom - This is a moment of closure written a few months after the end of my mother’s long life. I wanted that life to be longer.
