Program Notes

Lights of the Forest is a loosely programmatic piece. It is inspired by a series of images of light in a forest; the setting sun through the trees, a campfire of a traveler, the glowing eyes of a predator, the glow of bioluminescent life forms, stars peering through the arboreal canopy, first light as night recedes. It was commissioned by Thomas Burritt and the University fo Texas at Austin Percussion Ensemble and premiered at PASIC 2012.
