Calapitter (2024)

Reva and David Logan Center for the Arts
Commissioned and Presented by the Chicago Center for Contemporary Composition
premiered by the Grossman Ensemble
Another evening of bracing music performed by the Grossman Ensemble
“Calapitter” opens with a whimsical air but there is a constant, steady, brooding beat that provides momentum that leads to an almost chaotic climax. A slow section has a gossamer sense that degrades into murkiness. The whimsy returns for the understated conclusion.
Spur (2023)
premiered by Axiom Brass
