about
Symphonies of Mother and Child is an intensely personal work inspired by my bond with my child, which was composed during our early years together. While the work is symphonic in some ways, the word “symphonies,” in the title actually refers to the older, broader connotation, from the Greek, of “sounding together.” Through the work, mother and child “sound together” through love and wonder, exploring, struggling, and brooding, as they learn to attune, to cherish, and to let go. The mother-child bond, as universal as it is, can also be seen as a metaphor for even broader themes like love and loss, attachment and power, and time and transience.
1. entrancement
Wonder at the magic and mystery of this ethereal being, and a new flow of life weave and shimmer through cycles of waking dreams and reflective slumber, each sleep sounding a sustained phrase of a veiled long theme. Struggles are met with love and tenderness, but turmoil and doubt grow about not truly responding to the child’s needs, and with brooding on the bigger picture, realizations and a tentative resolve are reached.
