For mixed chamber ensemble (sop. sax, alto flute, bass clarinet, vibraphone, violin, and cello) (2023); c. 8’
Program Note:
During our time in the Alaskan tundra, we would regularly experience the effects of the distant disintegration of the hanging glaciers perched about the valley we explored; crashes and explosions echoed to our camps several moments after their sources had settled into a cloud of disturbed snow. colossus falls with invisible radiance seeks to recreate that experience; imagining those tons of ice unnoticeably falling gracefully and silently, yielding uncanny moments later to a raucous of mythic proportions.
Premiere performance by Corvus Ensemble at the Federal Hall in New York City on March 18, 2023.
