about

This week's performance had a small audience on Twitch that gathered very slowly, so at first the performance felt very private, quiet, and focused on its interior world. Gradually, that world became more expansive, and by the end, the music felt as though it were looking toward a horizon. Maybe it's ideal listening if you'd like some peace in a sometimes very busy time of year.

These pieces are dedicated to the work of Laddie John Dill. Thank you for listening!
