String Trio No. 1 - Too Long In This Condition

String Trio No. 1 - Too Long In This Condition

Violin, Viola, and Cello

Composer's Note:

Too Long In This Condition explores a new direction in harmony for the contrapuntal style I developed in my ensemble Blarvuster. It is a sister-composition to my vocal work, Dhammapada Cantata (2015). As a creation in the post-minimalist vein, it thrives on repetition and input from the performers in terms of navigating the form. The repeats are ideally a minimum of 4 times through a module, however more repetitions throughout will yield a larger scale work if the performance context requires this, such as music for dance, theatre or a site-specific situation. Despite the lack of slurring, it is to be played in a smooth and connected manner, on the string akin to fiddle bowing.
