Dream-Crossed Twilight

Dream-Crossed Twilight

String Quartet

Dream-Crossed Twilight, a composition commissioned by the Maryland Chapter of the Music Teachers National Association in 2018, was written for my friends and colleagues of the Left Bank Quartet. The title is a reference to T. S. Eliot’s description of human existence in his profound and moving poem, “Ash Wednesday”. The work is in three contrasting movements:

I. “Striving”
II. “Dreams”
III. “Spiro. Spero.” (“I breathe. I hope.”)

The contemplative and mysterious inner movement contrasts with the two energetic outer movements, and the darkness of the first movement is dispelled by the luminous optimism of the finale.
