score
recording
The Problem of the Surface was a piece where I was exloring the inclusion of spoken text in an otherwise instrumental work and working to operate the space between abstraction and textual concreteness. I wrote this work for the senior recital of a dear college friend of mine, Micah Stoddard. Category
