a bridge between starshine and clay

instrumentation | piano
date | 2018
duration | 6'
premiere | February 17th, 2018 by Mary Voutsas @ American University's Koster Foundation Gala

note | ​At its core, a bridge between starshine and clay is just that. This is a piece that underlines the intersections between the binaries that create it. But in connecting interactions between left and right hands, low and high registers, or performer and instrument, those binaries are revealed to be false -- a bridge that joins, but also dissolves.

title & inspiration from Danez Smith's summer, somewhere ; in reference to Lucille Clifton's won't you celebrate with me ; this phrase revising a line from Keats' sonnet On Sitting Down to Read King Lear Once Again​.
