Afterlight (2018)
for soprano saxophone and piano (2018)
Commissioned by Bob Eason, Evan Clark and Clifford Leaman
Duration: 7 min.
Afterlight was written in response to a multitude of tragedies that occurred in early 2018. The title refers not only to its definition (of retrospect) but also my own interpretation of the word afterlight: that of the "light" that remains when someone passes, in the form of memories, shared experiences, a sense of presence even when someone is gone.
