Program Notes

When Time Stands Still focuses on the moments where silence speaks louder than music. The ends of phrases are the moments of anticipation where the theme of the piece is exposed, leading to many possibilities of resolution. As the sections move forward, the rhythmic momentum increases, giving each abrupt moment of silence even more power. Holding these moments of tension is When Time Stands Still.

This piece was written in collaboration with Margaret Anne Gunter at the Sewanee Summer Music Festival as part of the solo instrument composition intensive.
