Summary:
"Still Life with Violin is like a Turner painting--it is an impressionist's struggle to paint the violin with orchestral color. It is as if the painting is experienced from 2 perspectives: close up, and from across a space, as if viewed through a constantly active zoom lens. My purpose is to invite the listener to listen closely to the beauty of the violin as an instrument within an orchestral palette and at the same time to breathe in and deeply feel the power of the violin to speak beauty"--Program note.
