String Sonata (2019)
For String Orchestra (min. 8/6/5/4/4)
Duration - 26’
Premiered by The Chelsea Symphony conducted by Matthew Aubin at The DiMenna Center in New York City on September 20th, 2019.
Composer’s Note:
This sonata has no literal program, but it does follow a clear emotional trajectory - from the vitality and life-affirming rhythms of the first movement, to the ambiguity of the second movement, to the aggression and brutality of the finale. Writing it was a personal challenge to say something unique and compelling within a well-established form.
