Turning Point (2023) - for solo vibraphone with voice and fixed electronics - (7:45)

 

Commissioned by Braedon Bomgardner

 

Program Notes:

 

It turns out that when attempting to balance an inhumane amount of work while also trying to write music that is centered on joy and optimistically looking toward the future, the ironic tension between reality and optimism subconsciously finds its way into the music, whether one wants it to or not. Even more ironic was recognizing after the music was complete that the optimism was actually a longing for groundedness and peace, a break from the day-to-day machine.

 

I may not ever really be able to “turn my brain off” from work, but perhaps slowing down the machine every once in a while can be enough.
