Estuary

(2020)
Duration: ca. 4'

Program Note:  During the COVID-19 pandemic, I have been isolated in the small seaside town of Hull, MA. From this vantage point, I look out every day to see the distant and (appropriately) separated islands scattered throughout the harbor, each housing unique landscapes and varied structures such as lighthouses, ruins of forts, and small boathouses. I’ve become fond of this vista and increasingly interested in the rich history of these islands and this body of water. In Estuary, each performer’s sound, whether performed remotely or together, becomes an island of independent sound quality and behavior while clearly remaining part of a larger ecosystem and structure of sound.

​Instrumentation: Saxophone ensemble (SSAATTBB, recommended)

written for the 2020 NYU Woodwind Summer Institute
