string quartet

Commissioned by the ACTOR Project for the Bozzini Quartet

2022

Program Note:

A sonic evocation of a recurring childhood daydream: an endlessly deep, dark forest filled with phantasmic foliage that seems painted onto the void, not quite real. I’ve used timbres and harmonies that feel dark, wet, and tinged with blues, raspberries, and violets to evoke the dreamy foliage. The music is as much an exploration of the strangeness of the half-conscious daydreaming mind as it is an evocation of this visual world.
