Abstract Details

2012, DMA, University of Cincinnati, College-Conservatory of Music: Composition.
The work consists of two contrasting panels. The first panel reflects life; the second, death. While grieving over the recent death of someone in my life, I sketched two separate formal shapes that would eventually become the basis of “Reflections.” The resulting music adheres to the shapes that I sketched. This piece, in which I integrated elements of minimalism, jazz, progressive rock, and sound mass composition, is scored for saxophone quartet (alto, alto, tenor, baritone), and amplified acoustic guitar. In addition to this version, there is an alternate version of this piece, which is scored for horn quartet and amplified acoustic guitar.
