ITEM 8

Item 8 was commissioned by The Nouveau Classical Project in 2016. It was premiered by the ensemble at Le Poussin Rouge in NYC and was additionally programmed in their 2016-2017 season. Unfortunately, due to a technical issue, a reference recording of this piece is not available.

The piece calls for explosive improvisational passages that interweave around gestural graphics, layered on top of steady looped vocals and instrumental rhythms.

Item 8 is scored for flute, bass clarinet, violin, piano, and a fixed electronic track.
