Stogikk

for woodwind quintet
2016 | 15'

instrumentation: fl(picc),ob,cl,hn,bn
category: works for small ensemble (2 - 6)

Program Notes:

The title comes from the Norwegian words “Støy” (noise) and “Logikk” (logic). I consider composition an act of making sound logical, so much so my ears will hear fragments of melodies in the white noise of running water or in a breeze winding through a forest. Stogikk documents the emotional landscape I often travel when creating music.

First Performed:

Mill Ave Chamber Players
Sunday, April 4th 2017
Central United Methodist Church, Phoenix, Arizona, USA
