BEHIND THE MUSIC

From these stories, a composition.

Inspired by the edition of . An original miniature in G major, with a more inward passage in E minor. The wide-ranging theme and exchanges between flute and piano interpret the shared table of Pisa’s Knowledge Alliance and books for pupils and teachers in Tanzania; a steady pulse evokes a year of shared life in Houston’s CHAPEA simulation. The voices reunite in the reprise and make room for the coda. This is an editorial interpretation of the news, not data sonification or a demonstrated therapeutic effect.
