Program Notes
Send & Receive is based on the Morse Code premise of dash/long & dot/short utilizing articulation, note duration, rhythmic groupings and pitch groupings to musically illustrate the long/short concept. The work can simply be described as a series of vignettes found in a variety of musical environments (dance, lyrical, funky, march) all while demonstrating the concept.
