Program Notes
Originally written for horn and piano as the last movement of my Global Warming Sonata and then transcribed for clarinet and piano, Sunswept originated with a call from my friend and fellow Mu Phi member, Susan Dietz, asking if Windswept could be played with flute so that she and her husband, John, could play it together. In reworking the piece, I realized the sonorities of the flute and piano would work beautifully with this piece. Sunswept is an exciting, playful, lyrical and dynamic interchange between the instruments. The piano is an equal partner to the flute in this work.
