Program Notes

Sounds and Shapes was composed in the spring of 2003 for a reading session by the Speculum Musicae during their residency at Rice University.  The piece consists of two contrasting short movements: Pyramid is a slow movement with a dramatic opening that slowly evolves into an ethereal atmosphere; Spiral is a relentless, perpetual-motion movement that features many virtuosic passages in the violin and marimba.
