The Sky About to Open (2004) for orchestra was written for and is dedicated to composer
Judith Weir, on the occasion of her 50th birthday.
The work is based on musical material from Desiring the Solicitude of Rain (2003-04) for
tenor and chamber orchestra, based on a text of Kathleen Wakefield. The title of this work
comes from the poem. (The title also references Weir's work The Welcome Arrival of Rain
(2000) for orchestra.)
The work is a brief fanfare of spacious character -- filled with anticipatory energy: the sky
pregnant with rain about to fall.

Clarinet in Bb

Harmony Musicians For Harmony, an organization founded in response to the tragic events of 9/11, asked me to compose a chamber orchestra piece for their September 11, 2006 concert in New York City . I have composed Harmony for this remembrance concert. What I wished to do in composing this music was to reveal a more Middle Eastern tonality to my style which is derived from American folk fiddle music. As I become more and more familiar with American music in my own musical journey, I also learn that the music I like so much has many layers. It exposes mystery in its origins when one cares to peel back these layers. It is likely these Middle Eastern cultures play more of a role in American fiddling (and American music in general) than previously thought.

In Harmony I use descriptive phrases printed in the score to indicate the temperament and journey of the music. Reaching Out begins the piece with its inviting and inquisitive drones. Throughout the piece there are several interpretations of the material with canonic and fugal writing. The music of Harmony is based on the same material constructed in a slow tempo in the beginning, a moderate tempo in the middle of the piece, and a fast fiddling tempo near the end. With hope in heart and music, I contribute Harmony on this painful day of remembrance.

This work for School Orchestra was written for the Tamworth Regional Youth Orchestra in New South Wales, Australia. The idea and title came about through my memory of playing medleys in school orchestra as a child - relatively unrelated material, structurally and stylistically, stuck together with fairly abrupt juxtapositions. I set out to follow this model with original material. It appealed to my sense of the silly.

SKU: A0.533576

Flying Machine (2008) for orchestra was commissioned by the Harvard-Radcliffe Orchestra in
celebration of two anniversaries: the orchestra’s 200th season and James Yannatos’s 45th anniversary
as conductor. The work is dedicated to James Yannatos in celebration of his 80th birthday and his
years of distinguished activity as conductor, composer, and mentor.
The music is joyous in spirit, inspired by a sense of discovery and fulfillment—the exhilaration that
comes from knowledge well-used. The poetic image is taken from the age of the invention of flight.
The piece’s opening section is “workshop/construction� music—filled with a sense of unfolding,
building, and assembly. The musical material is presented in a series of overlapping guises; the rest
of the work unfolds from these ideas. As the music gathers energy, the barn door is finally opened,
and the behemoth is rolled out. After a pregnant pause, the music of flight begins—soaring and
energetic.

The parts are available on rental from the publisher.
