Pine ChantWith: Arizona Wind Quintet, Sara Fraker, Jackie Glazier, Marissa Olegario
Scored for reed trio and electronics, Pine Chant draws music from the rhythms of annual tree growth, based on a set of data shared with me by the Laboratory of Tree-Ring Research at the University of Arizona in Tucson. The work also reflects my own lived experience amidst the current climate uncertainty, as heard in the deep sadness pervading the work’s underlying harmonic cycles. Lachlan Skipworth. See:
