Full score

Program note:

There is a famous photograph that Ruth Orkin took of a young American girl strolling in a street in Florence surrounded by ogling Italian men catcalling. She blithely went on her way, completely ignoring them***. It is such an iconic photo that I was inspired to write my 19th string quartet in honor of Miss Orkin's photograph. 

After some research I discovered that the girl in the photograph has a made-up name of Jinx Allen. Her real name is Ninalee Craig. Ruth Orkin befriended this young American compatriot and ended shooting a ton of photographs of her in that city. 

I decided that these exquisite photographs would become the titles of the movements for the string quartet. 

I. American Girl in Italy 
II. Jinx in Goggles 
III. Jinx @ AMEX 
IV. Treasure Tours 
V. Jinx Staring 
VI. Jinx with Statue 

From a Wikipedia entry on Jinx Allen: Many interpret the photograph as one of harassment and chauvinism. In 2014, Ninalee Craig said: At no time was I unhappy or harassed in Europe. The photograph is not a symbol of harassment. It's a symbol of a woman having an absolutely wonderful time! She has also noted that Italian men are very appreciative, and it's nice to be appreciated. I wasn't the least bit offended..

This first time I heard this song was when Florence + The Machine performed it live on the Later...With Jools Holland show. I immediately fell in love with the song. The makeup of the song, from ethereal to rock back to ethereal was something that has not been used in quite some time. And the brass ending is just amazing in its simplicity. Florence used (and still may use) this song to end her concerts. In the original key from their self-titled Florence + The Machine LP.

Big God is a very expressive song from album High as Hope that works incredibly well on string quartet. This easy and great arrangement values the beautiful work of Florence & The Machine, covering not just melody and chords, but adapting them to achieve good effect on a string quartet and it's a very pleasant version for several kinds of events.
