Smoke, Airs [2017 rev. 2019]
For Flutes, Piano, Percussion, Tn Sax, Violin, Voice.

The essence of “Smoke, Airs” is suggestion — the material is made up of whistles, whispers, sandpaper, textual sensations and vocal utterances, all coalescing, as if moving through the rooms of an empty house. The sound world is inspired by my improvisational language, and written for the ensemble to play freely in and give life to. The piece was composed with love for the Wet Ink Ensemble, completed in October, 2019.
