dark sea, silent stars (1999)

for solo guitar
Duration:
3 minutes

dark sea, silent stars  is inspired in part by the music of the ancient qin (Chinese zither).  Timbral shadings, small pitch bends and inflections, and free-flowing improvisatory phrases are all reminiscent of traditional qin techniques, though reinterpreted and incorporated in a different manner.  The title of this work reflects the tranquil and meditative quality of the music.  

For performance materials, please contact the composer.
