String Quartet
Composer's Note:
Dream-Crossed Twilight (2019), a composition commissioned by the Maryland Chapter of the Music Teachers National Association, 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.
Movements: I. Striving II. Dreams III. Spiro Spero (I Breathe. I Hope.)
