Description

Performed at LeFrak Concert Hall at the Aaron Copland School of Music on November 15th, 2012, by Emily John (harp).

Here's an odd little miniature. The wonderful Emily John was a real pleasure to work with on this exploration in which I tried to get as chromatic on the harp as one can with few pedal changes. (Non-music-nerds, beware...) Using static pedal positions, this piece begins with two chromatic areas: A#, B, C, Db, and E, F, Gb, resulting in a pitch set (0123678) that seems to me almost blues-y, but functioning here in an entirely different manner.
